Fuck me

Been a while since I've heard something from you. This was fucking great. The lyrics and fantastic and I forgot how good your growls and screams were, haha. The only thing I can really say could use some improvement is the mixing. The guitars were a bit hard to make out in some sections with all of the vocals going. And the clean vocals got really drowned out.

Still, not nearly enough to take away from my enjoyment of the tune. Just figured I should add something constructive.

BuryYourFace responds:

thank you sir ;) Yeah It was a bitch trying to mix all the instruments and vocals in this song... you pan something or change the slightest +dB and then one of those elements overpowers the rest of the song so I didn't really get into perfecting it. And plus I was super SMASHED when I put this together... lloll

Dude

Schleif rocked the shit in this man! I love the vocals. The only thing I can think that he could improve on is keeping a consistent distance from the mic. It seemed to vary quite a bit on some lines. Making some stand out less than they seemed like that should have. Other than that though, totally badass.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Hey man, Yeah...I've always diggggged his voice and style. I'm honored for him to wank about with my shit (not poo.) He just needs that nice vocal compression setting to even out everything, and it could slay more bodies than it already has. haha. I kinda like the distant sounding shit, though...fucks with my mind. haha.

Happy to see you out, man. Thanks for the review!@

Not bad at all

Sounds pretty goo dman. Has a nice slow creepy feel to it. I don't really remember this from the movie, but oh well. The only thing I can really think to add at the moment would be some more reverb on the drums. They sounded a little dry to me when you compare it to the rest of the mix. Might be wrong though.

If you end up not doing it yourself I could give the guitar's a go. Just e-mail me an FL project file with the tracks you want recorded and I'll get it back to you as soon as I can. I'll pm you my e-mail if you decide you want me to. Hope to see some more tunes soon.

Back-From-Purgatory responds:

Thanks for the review!

Yeah, I do plan on throwing real guitars in, just have to figure out the two chords that are strummed in the beginning, then I'll be peachy, rest is easy.

And yeah, I hope to have more tunes up soon, although I'll be limiting what I upload now as I am writing with other people now and they don't like the idea of me uploading our songs. So I'll be uploading some quickies.... And I still have to show off my new tone yet.

Nice

Sounds pretty fucking good through my stereo. I really can't think of anything to complain about at the moment. The synths sound great and add to the tune quite well. Your tone fit the music really well and your playing was clean.

Who mixed this one? This is probably the best mix I've heard from you two. IN other Megaman covers you guys did it was never quite this nice. Hope to hear some more tunes from you guys soon.

DarKsidE555 responds:

Sweet. I pleased little speedy! hehe. Yepp, mixed by me. I really had a hard time finding a good balance and you don't want to know how much exports I did on the song to please me and Zero-Resurrected. xD

Anyways, I'm glad this one is done and that I could please your hairy ballz you complaining bitch! <3

Nice

Some cool riffs in this one man. What really got me was the title though. It actually got me to write and recording vocals for this. You want me to submit it, or send it to you first? Anyway man, hope to see you around some more.

AngelsDontKill responds:

You can upload it if you like it man, no big. Thanks a lot though! Making something that you manage to find appealing is always an honor!

Fuck me...

I haven't seen you in ages man. Nice to see you back around.

Overall the tune is great, but I think that the lead tone was a little weak. Could have used a bit more drive. I think it would have made it sound smoother in the end.

Anyway, I'll say it again, it's nice to see you kicking around again.

TritoneAngel responds:

Hey man, good to hear from you! And thanks for the review, and advice; you've recorded and posted a lot on here and I respect your opinion.

Finding the right balance for the lead tone and the lead volume was a constant wrestling match. I wanted to keep the gain high but not overbearing to make sure the fast notes still sounded clearly, and that the runs didn't get lost in gain saturation. I did double all the melody and leads, playing the on the neck pickup and then on the bridge pickup to thicken it up.

Nice!

Sounds pretty badass man. I do somewhat agree with Bard about the vocals. Though I think changing them up slightly at the end would be enough to make it seem less repetitive. Maybe have the the first two words of the first two lines be more background vocals and have "the end" and "destroy you" really pop out. Also maybe layer another vocal track for the "fuck you all" parts. A nice low one to make it more brutal. Anyway, just my thoughts from a couple o flistens.

TwilightNecrosis responds:

Thanks for the review man!
Yeah, I was actually going to go back and do some really low ones, but I was in a hurry: I had to leave to go hang out with my dad. So they'll have to wait until Monday.
Thanks again, I appreciate it.

Hell yeah!

You by any chance want another guitarist for the rhythm? I'd love to cover this with you if you wouldn't mind. Either way though man, it should be badass.

Sonofkirk responds:

Heck yes, it would be cool :). What part to you want to take ? *PM*

Thanks for the review bro \m/

Hmm

Honestly it's not a bad idea, but the mixing really screwed up the song for me. The drums sound really weak and overall thin. Your guitar tone isn't too bad though. You should do some reading on how to use eq and compression for your drums. I think it'd really help the song if you could fix them. Good luck man.

himenow responds:

I know how to EQ and stuff.
And I know the mixing is poor.

I'm no professional mixer or anything, yknow. ;)
I'm getting better though, gradually.

You'll hear with the next song that I upload.

Not bad

The playing isn't bad and the recording is decent, but I didn't like the mixing much at all. The guitars tower over the drums too much. With some adjustments like bringing the guitars down some and maybe lowering the crash cymbals as well. Mostly just trying to even things out with the kick and snare. With better mixing I think this would kick ass. I'll also try giving the vocals a shot. I just need to finish something for Sorohanro.

Kor-Rune responds:

Yup, I'm still a mixing noob. Thanks for the review!

and yeah the playing gets pretty bad at places. Probably my worst yet lul

If any flash author's want some custom music for their flash just let me know. I'd be more than happy to try and help you out.
