the only strand of hope

I loved this and if it is your only strand of hope then it should work because I give you a 5/5 and 9/10. well done.

one word...

FUCKING BRUTAL !! It's been a long time I haven't seen you submitting music ! I thought you were dead ! Great job here ! This master piece is quite long, the vocals are cool... your voice is depper that I though ! The soft part is also swell ... my advice... keep it up man ! By the way, I've written a review for "Constant intro (Flame Mesial)" and for "Zelda O.o.T Gerudo Fortress" . Could you give me the lyrics ? And what drums software do you use for your covers ?

FlameMesial responds:

Excellent review mate!! It's made my day :D

I'll check out the other reviews straight after this, especially if they're this fucking cool ;D

The drum stuff is done with my trusty BOSS Dr.Rhythm 670 drum machine, and when the samples are on Beatcraft I equalize them and make the drum track :D

And the lyrics:

All the roads that I have passed
The answer I could not derive
The quest for knowledge has subsided
When the sun will never rise

All this useless time has brought me nothing
But the waste this life has shone on me

The degree was always inside
But I couldn't see inside myself
The only strand of hope in the middle of my mind

It takes a failure to kill oneself
To not believe the gift of life
To think the problem is solved
By the black robes of Grim
And the stars will never fade

All this useless time has brought me nothing
But the waste this life has shone on me

The degree was always inside
But I couldn't see inside myself
The only strand of hope in the middle of my mind
Inner clarity pushed away
The only strand of hope lies astray, cast away

Wilted flower, deadened brain
Pulling images are bleeding, bleeding my mind

Christ aside, the faith in me is gone
I resemble a failure

The degree was always inside
But I couldn't see inside myself
The only strand of hope in the middle of my mind
Inner clarity pushed away
Overlooked the will that lies astray, cast away
I will believe in the one that shall set me free
Myself

Once again, cracking review man, enjoy the lyrics, and peace out :D

OMFG!!

With cream on a stick! I totally missed it! Nice shit dude. Vocals were ok, not my real taste but they are quite decent. Like the growling there more than the "clean" singing!

The rest of course was pure orgasmic FlameMesial shit right there! Yeah, right there! Bout time you kicked some shit again! \m/

Missed ya fellow bastard. ;)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 5 for The Only Strand of Hope, raising its score from 4.20 to 4.33.

FlameMesial responds:

Dude, excellent review, missed you too XD
I gave the clean singing a shot, maybe it isn't for me :P

Again, thanks to everyone for the support
\m/

Nice

I'm glad you managed to fit something on NG man. I'm guessing this one is all you since you don't submit your bands tunes on here. Anyway the death metal vocals were pretty good, but the clean ones sound quite bad. No worries though I have a terrible singing voice as well. You've definitely improved your death metal vocals though.

The music was great I must say. Great heavy riffs, and the drums you sampled from your drum machine sound great. Anyway all around a kick ass tune my friend. Glad to see you submit again. I'll try and catch you on MSN later.

FlameMesial responds:

Well, yeah, this might be the only song for a while, seeing as I'm still working on that weird album thingy that's completely different to this :P
Clean vocals were bad, yeah. Doesn't really bother me, I enjoyed it :D

Thanks for the review buddy, talk laterrrr!!

;D

Don't you just hate it when you review someone else's work and can't think what to say?

Well I have one main thing to say, and that is...

THIS KICKS ARSE!

New mix of styles I think.

Reminds me of Bolt Thrower and Some kind of grungey chorus tune too (sorry if 'grunge' is insulting, but I think it sounds pretty cool with Death metal because it hardly sounds grunge at all).

Anyways, i'll stop rambling random shit now.

Keep rocking hard... and fast (just like me in bed with my girlfriend :D )!

FlameMesial responds:

Heh, excellent review man!
New mix of style, no kidding. I was really going for a Scar Symmetry style thing. Took me the weekend to write and record it all :D
Happy to hear you rocking the casbah with your girlfriend man, you've made me fucking jealous! XD

Thanks for the review!
