[Stone Fall]

nice acoustic tune

Nice and simple.Sounds nice somthing you can listen to a lot.I think there was only one fretting mistake somwhere near the begining sounded like you didn't push hard enough on the fret.All in all I enjoyed it.

Tancrisism responds:

Thanks. This was what I was hoping for.

[Tuesday's Gone]

I love Skynyrd

Great tune and you didn't do a bad job of playing it.Good job and keep playing guitar.

Tancrisism responds:

Thanks. Will do.

[Axe Death - Here's Johnny]

Immediatly gets your head bangin'

Great intro you have to love heavy riffs and good melodies.The drums fit perfectly and I love the double bass sounds kick ass.My favorite part is the solo Hanneman must be you idol man I swear.Great song

GoreBastard responds:

Cheers! The intro was just me, toying around with certain parts of the guitar.
Hanneman is awesome. Much better than King in my opinion. If you look in the album booklets where it says "Lyrics by" and "Music by", Hanneman has always written the best music. He did Angel of Death, Raining Blood, Seasons in the Abyss... He doesn't get the recognition he deserves. But my real Idol is Dimebag Darrel, ever since I saw the Pantera Home Vids as a kid.

[Brutal Fucking Torture]

Damn thats heavy

Heavy as shit man really great tune although I would kill to hear a solo in this it would kick so much ass.Your arm must have been about ready to fall off you get to pickin' pretty quick.
Got a kick out of the intro fits pretty well.

GoreBastard responds:

Yeah, my arm was fucked. I recorded both guitar tracks all the way through without stopping on this one, by the end my arm was hanging on by a fucking string! Cheers for the review mate!

[Old School Metal 80s HairGore!]

I laughed at the title

It was pretty kick ass I thought it was a nice fast paced tune and the guitar playing is great. Had a couple of heavy riffs and a nice little solo my head was bangin' and if you can do that you have succeded. Sweet tune I have yet to listen to a song from you I didn't like.

GoreBastard responds:

Awesome thanks. I don't know what I was thinking with the title, I just like using all 30 letters that it allows you to put in!
Cheers for the review.

[Sweet Acoustic Jam]

Can't wait to hear a full version

Sounded great only thing is on some parts I wasn't able to hear the lead to well but didn't change my opinion great little acoustic demo you write some pretty good stuff.

HDG responds:

thanks. as with a lot of my songs here, the lead was sort of just put there once i got the idea. infact, this whole thing was written and recorded in one day. but i do plan to make a full version of this. anyway, thanks for the review. i appriciate everyone who does.

[Trippy Acousitc Groove]

Sounds great

That is a real great mellow piece.It's one of those thing you can just kick back and enjoy.You did a good job and man that was great recording quality what acoustic guitar did you use on this track?

HDG responds:

thanks... i used my Yamaha Acoustic. i'm not sure of its exact model name, but it's kinda like a beginner's acoustic. it's real nice though. anyway, thanks a lot for the review.

[GuitarSolo in A (with new amp)]

Damn that was a cool solo

I wish more of the bands nowadays would play solo like this.It was original but at the same time it reminded me of some straight up heavy metal lead guitar from the glory days.You have pretty decent chops and don't just mindlessly wank.Great solo and hope you do more.

HDG responds:

awesome. i'm real glad you like the solo. this is one of my favorites cause it's got a real voice instead of just shredding, and i'm exremeley happy that you noticed that.... anway, thanks for the review.

[Snapped in Fucking Half Again]

another great one

Man I can't help but be hooked by a song with some galloping rhythms.This was a nice heavy song with a great jeff hanneman style solo.Thrashy kick ass tune and you must spend forever making those drum tracks and thats somthing that I like because those drum programs are a bitch.

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks. Yeah, I would have made a lot more songs if the fucking drum machine was more fun to use.
The older version of this is at the bottom of my list here, but it doesn't have the fast end part like this one does.
Thanks for the review dude

[Risen From the Fukin' Cemetary]

you don't make bad songs

Damn I love this.Very evil sounding and great playing on it.It does remind me a of slayer but that cant be a bad thing can it?Anyways great song and great job keep it up.

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks man, Slayer rule. There is a mistake in this song though, which I should have fucking fixed. It's when the grind part comes on, and eventually the guitar goes out of sync with the drums a little bit. After the fast bit, it goes ok again. I'm listening to it now, pissed of that I didn't fix it!
Oh well, it ain't that bad is it! Cheers for the review!
