I'm all for new styles of music, and I'm not trying to be a prick, I really just think you guys need to find that groove together. Good luck and I wish you guys success!

+1. I found myself getting completely lost as to where the melody went about 3/4 of the way through Brotein Shakes, and the keyboard never really seemed to fit in with the rest of the song, but maybe it was just the sound he used.
Lack of Intelligence wasn't as bad, but still wasn't really anything to get me excited. The whole "metal meets pop-punk" thing you're trying to work with just doesn't really mix. It's hard to to get into a song that goes back and forth between a "fun" melody, and fast palm muting and double bass pounding away.
I like pop-punk (played drums in a band like that for about 6 years) and I like metal, but I don't think the two styles should be mixed.
