Ant > actually, I only use my seven years old PC with the old shitty loudspeakers that were delivered with the computer.
Few times ago, one died in horrible conditions (one cable seems to be dead too or something like false contact...), so I now have to use the headphones and it's not confortable at all (I like to hear what's around me when I compose, even more since I have the pc in my room).
The guitars are recorded with Line6 Guitar Port, and I use OpenMPT for "sequencing" (trackers are not realy sequencers, ya know) for creating everything else which is not guitar. Drums are made with EZDrummer's Add-On Drumkit From Hell.
Soon I will change everything, considering I'll have a MacBook Pro (for the school) and will buy a M-Box to use Protools (since it's the soft I'll mainly have to use this year). But I will partitionnate the hard drive, so I'll be able to use Mac OS X AND Windows XP. But for now, it's only Open Modplug Tracker, a guitar, a guitar Port, headphones and a bunch of VSTi.
Edith listens to your tracks.
Buragod is interesting, too long, but enough variated to keep an interest to my ears.
I would mostly complain about the piano which sounds fake (try to use the velocity for a more real result) and about the EQ. There are too much bass. Use an EQ on the whole final wav file and reduce the bass (with a graduation from 20 Hz to about 310 Hz - ie: reduce about 50% in the very low frequencies, around 25% or less around 170 Hz and a little bit around 310 Hz).
Cats dying to jazz.
I like the synths, the SFX are nice and well used (00:23). The beat is nice but to weak, imo. Plus the hats are too much right-panned.
There again, same complain about the piano. At 1:42, the whole track sounds kinda messy, until 01:58.
Some piano melodies are very good, but they miss some coherence and variations.

And again, there are too much bass. Reduce them with an EQ.
From a global point of view it's a good track, which needs some improvements, but have a solid base.

Edit 2
Forced myself to track something with the headphones on my head (including recording guitars...).
http://bracagazus.free.fr/tracks/sanishlick.mp3Meshuggah's Chaosphere is, of course, the main inspiration for this (unfinished) track.
Edit 3
Listening to Niccho's Gayfag.
If I were you, I wouldn't hardpan these clean guitars in the beginning. Btw, it would be interesting to put some light delay and reverb on them.
The piece is solid, not only about the skills, but the composition which reminds me Opeth and Meshuggah.
Globaly, the bassdrum is too heavy.
The clean guitar sound is pretty good, the distorded one seems to be lack of some frequencies (bass, mid or treble, I couldn't tell). Of course, it's can be just a matter of taste.

The drums parts are lovely.
Overall, this song is great.
Epicprog.
Same thing about the distorded guitars sound (maybe too much bass).
Musically, it's well interesting.
1:45... WTF ? Why is the melody fading out ?

Fortunatly, the passage that comes after is well done and the come back of the melody is delicious.
Nice following, calm and quiet passage (reminds Opeth).
WTF again ! The piano melody is very very interesting ! With changes of tonality. Could sound awfull but it works well.
The passage at 04:47 worths the listening. Epic is the word. The bass is a bit too loud at this moment.
Same about the bassdrum, I could say.
There's some clipping too.

Nice variation at 5:22.
Nice ending too, maybe too "short".
Overall, it's a trully piece of great music.
Complains : the sound of the guitars and the quality of the mixing/mastering (mostly for Epicprog), which don't help those tracks becoming more than great music.
