Hello, I've recently finished recording with my band at a university recording studio. I'd love some feedback from people who will hopefully appreciate it. we're all big 70s prog and fusion fans. i.e. genesis, mahavishnu orchestra, return to forever, king crimson, yes, weather report, etc. Have a listen. http://www.myspace.com/yetiguru - www.myspace.com/yetiguru if you like it feel free to add us as friends and help the scene. Enjoy!
Edit: sorry I didn't read all the information for what the post must include. Nationality: American. We are all students at Indiana University. We are all approximately 21 years old.

You guys remind me of Argentina's La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros, and they in turn remind me of Return to Forever and Yes

good stuff, especially 'Big City After' and '3 Secs to Blastoff'... a little jammy now and then, but I enjoyed it
..this should be in Unsigned Bands or Get the Word Out

3 Seconds To Blastoff was the only one I had time to listen to, and I
loved it. The first guitar solo is really lovely! Great tone and
wonderful drumming.

Nice amalgam of prog influences I'm hearing. OK, didn't see this but curious, how old are you guys? I'm guessing a bit younger than me, I'm getting older than dirt.

3 Seconds to Blastoff is pretty damn good actually.

it's funny, prog people like 3 seconds to blastoff and the big city after dark, and then jazz people like damn dog and the neon slums. by the way, if you listen to the neon slums, give it time, the bossa nova is just a mood setting intro

No problem with the bossa nova mood... I hear it since I was a little kid.

well I'm very glad. When I saw this post I noticed you were from
Brazil and immediately thought "oh god, I hope we didn't butcher the
bossa"!

^ Why not. Circa is doing it, and a lot of bands sell demo CDs that way. Going to listen to your stuff tomorrow - will let you know what I think.
