Top quality. Write a fully CD of this stuff with a few technical instrumental songs and a bit better mixing and your good to go.
I actually thought this was real instruments at first, before I listened closely. The vocals are top notch, especially the second ones that come in, though those second vocals could have used a bit better mixing imo.
The electric guitar was good. I could it tell it was fake when I listened for it but it was spars and unprominent in this track so it was ok, though I would suggest having a pro guitarist lay down some tracks for u if u do a composition like this again. Actually that goes for all tracks, but of course you must work with what you have available.
Could use a bit better bass sound.
Finally, nice job with the piano. Nice melodies and it sounded damn natural in this track even though I can't think of much (any) black metal that features piano (not that I know a great deal of black metal).
Oh, and il be really embarrassed if it turns out you did use real instruments :)
GJ dude.

The ONLY thing (apart from the vocals:) that is recorded is the guitar, that I recorded directly into my soundcard. So, the lol's on you, buddy! :D
Please note that this song is very old, and were I to make a metal-song now, well, it still would sound like shit I'm sure, but at least I've picked up a few recording and mixing-techniques and whatnot. I'm most likley as crappy guitarplayer now that I was then though, some things haven't changed haha.
Thanks alot for the indepth review dude! :)
