VIOLENT hill

"It was pretty good!"

You should work on your annunciation and watch the clipping. Great quality otherwise, and beautiful voice though. Keep at it.

Ecliptica

"Could be better."

submission: Ecliptica
date: June 28, 2008

In a span of 7 and 1/2 minutes, something has to progress. If casually listening, I can only really hear a slightly major change in the instruments around the 5 minute mark, but the riff still remains the same, give or take some variations here and there.

Some key changes, and a several different ideas and riffs all put together can really add to a piece immensely. This could work very well though as a 2-3 minute track, maybe if some measures were cut off.

It's just repetitive for me, but I'm not a fan of the genre, so I'm just reviewing as a casual listener.

You incorporated the time signature changes very well, and the production is very full and packs a punch. Favorited. :3

~Burden~

"Very well written"

submission: ~Burden~

The composition itself is great, but the piano has too much resonance, and it gives that loud, bassy overtone that just hurts the ears..

Otherwise, awesome song.

"Okay."

I think the vocals should try to be a pushed bit more operatic than what they are, to get that darker overtone atmosphere to match with the song. Certainly some high notes, though.

I don't really like the drums, I think a bit of heavier hihats and more snare during the chorus would add a lot to the fullness. either that, or have not such of a sharp bass drum but rather an extremely low tom, to give it that orchestrated feel.

It's also a bit short for a song with this kind of epic atmosphere and feel. Kind of a typical layout for the song as well. It's only okay for me.

Author's Response:

Yeah, I thought about that too. I was really indecisive on this piece and changed my mind a lot, and eventually I just decided to do some high coloratura celtic work.
As for perccussion... ^ ^; Yeeeeaaah... I'm not too familiar with that field, so I really have to work on it. I'll do better next time!
I understand how you feel. Metal is a very new and different territory for me, and I really didn't expect this to reach top song of the week. So this was not the best time to get so much publicity. ^ ^;
I'll try harder next time!
With love,
LadyArsenic <3

Guitar Challenge - Bad Man Inc

"Neat take"

date: June 10, 2008

I don't know though; I think there may be something a bit off in the mode or scale you used.

And don't worry, even the stubbiest of fingers can play guitar with a bit of practice, look at Tommy Iommi.

5/5 10/10

Fur Elise Unleashed

"Redundant"

date: June 8, 2008

Very repetitive, with the constant single kick drum and the choppy synth lead. Also your sounds used sound muffled and dated, like 1980's MIDI, unless of course, you were going for that sound.

Try using different drums, and try and make the composition flow a little better next time by listening very closely and connecting with the transitions and smooth them out, rather than just throwing together notes with around 3 or two different sounds in the mix.

Author's Response:

I don't think it would be smart to change everything in the song while making a remix... have you ever heard the fur elise?

And, I was trying for the muffled, dated type of sound

Deathgore's Theme

"Needs more to it."

submission: Deathgore's Theme
date: June 4, 2008

It just sounds void. Maybe some light, quiet strings, harmonized guitars slightly panned, and some delay on the guitars and very slight reverb on the drums to add fullness. Also the guitar should be turned down slightly, I think. Just my two cents, though :P

June 4, 2008

Author's Response:

simple, raw, honest with this.

Furthermore...does anybody ever read the description? :(

This was something made for TrippingMetal. If he's cool with the tune/mix, then I'm cool with it. It's for his stuff anyways. >:/

Anways, thanks for checking.

Metal Inter Lood

"Doesn't really fit"

submission: Metal Inter Lood
date: June 4, 2008

Very random lead bits.. Especially in the intro, it just doesn't sound like it makes any structural sense. Sounds like you were off key with the backing riffs starting at 0:20. I like the backing riffs though.

Keep practicing though :3
