Well, this is a link to a video of our band Los Torperros playing an original song called "El Gatillero" at one of our rehearsals. As you will notice the sound quality is not the best since this was recorded on a friend's cellphone. You will also see Mr. Puñal the drummer and Mr. Purple the bassist goofing around a bit, this is an instro but our bassist was clowning with a little singing. 
Almost at the very end we screw up very notoriously, sorry for that. I must say the actual song is now better than it was, we've edited it a bit and probably will upload more videos with the upgraded version of this song and other songs so stay tuned.
I hope some will like it, any opinion, criticism, suggestions or anything are welcome and dearly appreciated.
Thank You

1st thing, damn your drummer is loud, but it is in a bedroom and with a phone camera.
I like the intro.
I say its kinda repetitive, maybe come up with a Bridge section and throw it in the middle.

Nice mr. Green. not bad sounding either considering the kind of "studio" used  keep up the good work!
btw, for the loud drums, you could ask your drummer to screw down the hihat a bit more tight, that would clean it up somewhat, or he could use hotrods , also quiets down the drums (doesnt sound as good as sticks though, but handy when low volume is required)

I'm glad you guys liked it or at least part of it. Thanks for the tips Wannes, I'll tell him to lower his hi-hat, at least when we record something on a phone. I'll investigate a little bit more on those hot rods.

Excellent call WR! I also use these when playing the kit at home

Any other thoughts or suggestions ? They are very important for our band because that's one of the ways we can improve our songwriting skills and that kinda stuff.
