[Cannibalistic Intentions]

Nice

I liked the intro man. When the tune kicks into the fast paced riff I really like how the snare cuts through. Then after a bit of quick shit you get to a breakdown. I do think you could have made the breakdown a bit heavier. Though the beginning of it with the drums sounded really good. It just felt like it was missing something. I can't really explain it unfortunately.

Well anyway man, cool tune, I might be needing you to record an intro sometime soon for a tune about cannibals if you're up for it. I recorded a show on HBO about them and I really wanted to write a song about it. Talk to you later man.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Dude, thanks for the review. And I'm sorry I stole the title I suggested for you. I was just inspired. haha.

But yeah, I know what you mean about the slower part. I was in the same spot too. I think, either bass...or maybe some triplets on the bass drum would have helped. But ..I don't know man, but I do know what you mean, ya know? haha.

And hell yeah, always happy to oblige. You know me. Lazy..but always wanting to help. hahaha. Thanks for the review, man!\m/

[*-_Alone at night_-*]

Nice

Always enjoy your mellow tunes a lot. You really need to get an acoustic to mic. That would make these mellow tunes even better I think. I still can't play mellow shit like this very well. I really need to work on that.

DarKsidE555 responds:

Thanks you crazy ass basturd! Mellowness ftw! Also beerz!

[Walk in the Sky]

So smooth

You've got a great clean tone there my friend. Definitely enjoying the mellowness of it all, and whatever effect you had on the leads was pretty cool. The ending could have been less abrupt, but other than that, quite awesome.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

haha thanks man, this tone is in guitar rig as is the effects tone too. It wasn't eurotrance, but something else...can't remember. Have to open the project. haha. Glad you like it man...the ending, actually will be the middle section when I finish fiddling with the words. Hopefully I can get them done. Thanks for the review, bro!\m/

[F-Zero X - Silence]

Wow...

This one slipped right by me. Your playing just keeps getting better. Though I think the rhythm guitar is a bit quiet and in the back of the mix for the most part. Maybe that's what you were going for though. Other than that it's mixed pretty damn well. I'm glad to see you submit something new.

Oh yeah, PM me the e-mail you're using nowadays. For some reason Yahoo deleted you from my contacts list...fuckers. I want your opinion on some 3/4 drumming for a riff I recorded the other day.

FlameMesial responds:

Nice review buddy, thanks :D

With the rhythm guitar track, it's supposed to be like a backup for the synths rhythm, as it sounded a bit empty on it's own :P

Sure thing buddy, I'll drop my email by your PM.

Thanks for the review!
Flame.

[Sehnsucht]

Nice

Would make a badass intro, you going to be submitting the full tune when you finish it?

Goatchrist responds:

I released the demo half a year ago, this was just the short outro piece after the last song. I'm working on new material with additional folk influence right now, so expect more of this implemented into songs :) Thanks for the review

[Dead Never Die]

Wow

Fuck, I can't believe I missed this. A badass tune for sure man. Guitar is sounding quite nice. Some slow riffs and badass drums, a formula for a great tune haha. Your vocals were great as well. I didn't know you could get such nice gutturals. Overall I'm definitely impressed. Though it could use a bit of mastering to make it "shine" if you know what I mean.

AngelsDontKill responds:

Yeah, it deffinately needs some mastering, haha. But thanks man! I didn't know I could do gutterals either actually. I thought this would turn out to be an aweful failure of an attempt, but somehow people like it ^_^
Anyway, thanks for checking it out and for giving it such a great review! If you want the lyrics, they are posted on
SheezyArt.

[This Silence]

Fuck Yeah

Those are some awesome vocals man. Makes me want to practice more when I hear people who can do great guttural vocals. Drum programming was great, but you know what I think about beatcraft samples haha. The riffs are cool, especially on the breakdowns. The only thing I think I'd change would be turning down the kickdrums just a little bit. It might be my shitty speakers, but it sounded like most of the time they were causing just a little bit of clipping. Anyway man, great tune.

[Symphony of Pain]

Cool track

The choirs in the beginning sound pretty damn good, and lead nicely into the heavier section. The beat was good and the riff you have playing fits nicely. The end where the choirs come back in sound a bit ominous so that was cool. All around a pretty sweet tune, though I think it would have fit better into Industrial. I might be wrong though, oh well.

Grumbleduke responds:

You know, I think you're right, this should be in the industrial genre. Good suggestion!

[Nothing To Prove]

Oh yeah

I remember listening to this a while back. I thought it was pretty cool that you recorded it and put your own twist to it. Definitely sounds good. How long did it take you to do? Well pretty cool man, don't have much else to say since I only woke up a little while ago.

jarrydn responds:

Thanks man :)

If my mind serves me correctly, it probably took me 3 or 4 hours from start to finish.

I'd like to re-record it and apply some of my new mixing and mastering techniques XD

[Sleeping On Broken Glass]

Nice

I completely missed this one man, pretty cool track. The vocals sound pretty damn good. I'm always impressed with your vocals. You playing was also pretty badass as usual. You did a good job on the breakdowns, but the kickdrums were a bit quiet and didn't quite cut through. At least on my speakers.
