Especially the first couple of verses?

I sang this in one take after a coupla brews and it took awhile to get into it...
so the first coupla verses are outa tune to my ear.
However some people think it fits the tune.

I know I need to increase the volume on some of the vocals...especially at the end of the tune. But do the vocals really fit this song or should I maybe try to find a vocalist.

(also any vocalist who wants to give this tune a shot .... go for it...
here's the instrumental... just send me an isolated vocal track and I'll drop it in. if the song sells, I"ll share the credits and royalties)

recording info:
did all the instruments, vocals and harmonies myself on a Mac G3 using Cubase, a guitar synth and a bunch of virtual VST instruments.

Love the intro (guys laughing talking).

I think the vocals are tight, love the raw, raspy feel in your voice. Afterall, it is rock n roll (a more techno rock n roll in this case), but nevertheless vocals don't have to be perfect.

I'd leave 'em.
