How is my website so far?

[joecommisso]

I've been building this website for independent record label for about 2 months now & am hoping to get some opinions on how it looks & feels so far. I go on MacRumors all the time and I know there's a creative bunch of people on here so I figured it would be a good place to ask.

My website is:

Basically I just want to know what you think, is there anything you would do differently, I've only done 3-4 other websites in my life so I'm still learning. Any feedback positive or negative is appreciated.

Thank you!

I'd probably want the background image faded just a touch so it was less noisy making the content more comfortable to focus on, if the website was being designed for me.

Other than that, I think it's a great job and suits the industry nicely

Thank you! Yeah I've switched the background like 8 times since starting, that's always been my downfall lol, do you think a different background totally would be better or maybe a solid color or gradient?
