why is it a joke!??!?!

great song, awesome guitar lead work... just mind-blowing... but why is the word "joke" in the title? I though it was going to be a comedy track... is it a joke because it is so over the top cock-rock mega cheese style lyrics? Shit, i hope so after writing that, no offense!

yeah, great track, well played and sung and all. Check out my latest if you have a chance. The word joke really should be in the title of mine! :D

towermonolith responds:

it is supposed to be funny and cool. I put as many "I, You, We, and Us's in the lyrics as i could. Thanks for the positive review.

great rock!

this was really groovy and some of that guitar work was just mad!

it ended a bit abruptly, though, and the phaser-record-scratching effect through the middle went just a little too long for my liking. I was really digging that effect when it first appeared, but I think it went on a bit too long, especially considering the drums themselves sounded really tight and awesome. 5/5 & 9/10

check out my latest if you get the chance :)

AAAAApenguin responds:

Thanks man! Don't forget if you like that I'll be making more, or you can msg me a request.

good job!

i liked the clean parts with the string plucking a lot more than the sections with distortion... the guitar seemed to drop off the radar in those sections.

yeah, the solo was pretty cool. Well done.

check out my latest submission if you get the chance ;)

Shadeofblack responds:

Glad you liked it ! I'm gonna check out your submissions.

ha, that worked out pretty well!

it could almost be a tune used on the intro screen of a computer game... especially if sped up a few more bpm...

lots of time and effort into this one... and it paid off... good job!

check out my latest if you have a chance :/

Alexman159 responds:

not really that much effort since its a cover. it really sucks too

is it immoral to 10 your own song?

it probably is, but I have no morals anyway...

hey, thanks again for letting me be a part of this... every instrument turned out super-evil. There was still a compressor-limiter thing happening when I listened, though (as mentioned below in other reviews)... mixing can be very frustrating hey?

yeah, i had never heard the original before i joined this project but we collectively blew the crap out of it. this is evil! you are evil. any future projects you had in mind... i'm 100% available!

long live the metal.

Devastus responds:

Thanks for your review. Immoral? Maybe. Doesn't matter to me however :P

Yeah, there's still overcompressing happening. I could fix it but really, I can't be arsed to do that since the file is a big one and I'd have to undo some things in order to get things straight.

Yeah, I will be definitely contacting you in the near future again for some more vocal work. You fucking rock, man.

the invisible song, eh?

i don't understand how this could go through the frontpage and only get 4 listens... weird...

1 vote, 4 listens and 0/5... that's not really fair :(

For what it's worth, i liked it! there was a slight tempo issue, i thought, but not too drastic. I liked the "trippy" elements to it: how the instruments bounced around L-R panning & the fx on your vox.

neojim88 responds:

Ehhh thank you ^_^ yes I agree... Hmm yeh I know I noticed the tempo thing too, I believe you're right, the song is still in its rough stages, there's still alot I would add or correct in it, although I think I got the feel of the song how I wanted ^_^... thanks for your feedback, much appreciated *high five*

creepy... spooky... trippy...

but it was a bit ugly too!

interesting effect, having a phaser over the entire drum line... it really sounded freaky however it might've added more rhythm to the song to only have the cymbals phased rather than the whole kit.

The bass was a bit muddy and it probably needed more panning to the left or right to give the drums some space.

The vox were crazy... this was insane. I liked it despite the sound recording being a bit crusty.

Check out my latest post if you have time. I've put up a recording of my band covering ZZ Top's "Tush"

Chasethedrummer responds:

Thanks man!
Yeah, I'm still trying to get the hang of the whole editing prosess
and I'm only using a crappy computer mic.
Although I totally agree with everything you said,
I would like to say one thing about the phaser effect...
Sadly, it was used mostly just to cover up to crappy sound quality. -_-
But, yeah! I'll check it out if I have the time.

insane

yeah, that pretty much wraps it up... some of those riffs were so impossibly fast... the drums too... it made me smile.

the composition was fairly well done... lots of elements there competing for space and they mixed together alright... good transitions and drum fills too. I liked the fast parts the best... and the lead parts.

check out my bands version of Tush if you have the time...

svere responds:

Thanks for your review!

good job

there's an odd, "gurgly" kind of distortion happening on certain notes on the rhythm guitar... was that deliberate?

This is pretty sweet... slow and dreamy and kind of melancholy... I could easily imagine some laidback percussion to fit perfectly with this... have you got the equipment to do drums to it? I was thinking along the lines of Planet Caravan (the Pantera version in particular) if you know what i mean.

yeah, I liked it!

JohnnyCellulose responds:

ya the gurgly thing...well that's completely unintentional, i cant help it. its the string. and i dont hav electric drums or any drums for tht matter. And doing drum lines wit garageband can get hard

thx a bunch for the positive review!

(PS i dont have a clue about th planet caravan thing =P )

great build up

when that guitar kicked into overdrive around 0.30 i was thrashing... those little "spaced out sounding" leads were great. Shit man, this whole thing is awesome.

I'd definitely have a crack at some vox if you want... but I don't know if I've got the sound you are after. If you are interested (considering you've already got a few offers!) check out my sumission Welcome to Hell to get an idea of my voice. It's pretty much death growl though... don't know if that's what you're after.

Yeah, my mic is decent. It's a behringer B2 large condenser studio mic (it's German, hope you don't hold that against me!!!! :P) running through an MBox into ProTools.

Devastus responds:

Yeah, I listened up, and man you rock. It's just that I've got a bit of a voice like that already :P

Oh, and about that mic. I have exactly the same :P German, even.

Thanks for your review.
