Yeah, I had a listen the other night...

First off, not a huge fan of the drum sound (Well played though). Especially at the start of Surreal.
Surreal is a pretty cool song though.
Eliza sounds great. Awesome voice, as we all know, and it's captured well here.
My main criticism is that she tends to sing full on all the time. Would be good to hear her work with dynamics a bit more, and different timbres in her voice, to keep things interesting, and make the loud operatic stuff really stand out.
The guitars are pretty boring, but work within the song I guess.
Well mixed and good overall sound...

Breaking Me is a pretty good song as well.
A little generic sounding, but there's enough in there to keep me interested. Guitars work better in this song.
I like where you were going with the vibe of the verses, but the funky bass line thing sounds a little out of time here and there? If that was tight it would sound awesome.
Middle section with the samples etc sounds wicked too.
Mix is pretty good. Maybe the vocals could have been a little louder. Both of the songs are also fairly overcompressed for my tastes...but that's mastering...

Nice work.
Keen to see you guys live actually...
