I believe everyone has disected this about 50 times and everyone had excellent points so heres mine.

The intro was killer.....made me wanna look over my shoulder hunting the grim reaper or somethin. And the rythm was fairly decent, better than I could've done, no doubt. But everyone that said there needed to be a solo somewhere in the middle, I'd have to agree. Something that brings back that dark feeling from the intro. Excellent Performance my friend. I also would like to hear more of your work.

Take Care,
D.H.

Very well done. It very melodic and I could easily put a catchy vocal track to this one. Guitars sound great. It's not about the technique or complexity - it's all in how it makes you feel. This song rocks. Very pop-pun kish a la Sum 41. Nice work on the drum programming too.

[QUOTE=Blizzard_UK]Schmange, your file took 6 minutes to get to my ears because I had to wait for it, my point is, I did wait for it. I can't say it was worth the wait though.

If it took 6 minutes it's got nothing to do with me.
You should update your plug-ins preferences so that the songs start immediately. When I click on direct link mp3's, it takes less than one second for the song to start regardless of its size.

Open strings in chords, especially where you wouldn't normally see them.


I tried to listen, but soundclick wasn't interested in cooperating.
