Reviews for "I Burn Bridges"
HyruleanHyroe responds:
Haha, well thanks for tuning in! Ska = teh pwnage, so don't stop there!
Sweet.
Hmmm, what can I say? Awesome! Two songs in one! That's a discount offer, isn't it? You get a ten, but well deserve a 290456. Just imagine I gave you a 290456.
HyruleanHyroe responds:
I'm imagining, and I'm flattered! I'm so glad you like our music so much, being someone who's obviously been around the audio portal for a while. It's an honor! :D
Hmm...
I likes it.
One thing I think almost every band, ska in particular, could use to be better though, would be to have some alteration in the tempo.
Any song, no matter how epic or varied in the istrumentation, gets kinda stuck after a while, so I would say have the last verse be sped up.
Maybe have the verses go regular and simple, regular and more in-depth, sped up in-depth, and finally slow and simple to end.
Idk, just an idea :]
.................
And I like the sing sing sing at the end, lol.
HyruleanHyroe responds:
Hahaha, well, I personally agree with you that tempo is a major issue. Most ska bands are considerably quicker than us. I'm sure you'll all get sick of hearing this, but we're working on that on the new CD. :D
And I'm glad to hear someone actually comment on the bonus song at the end! Sooo much fun to play, write, record, etc. We've got a similar bonus bit on the new EP, so maybe I'll put it up!
Great!
I kind of liked how the drums sounded out of time. It was fresh and I liked how the singer didn't sound perfect. One thing that could have made the song better, was if the drums were a little simpler, it made it kind of confusing. Overall good. Keep it up. (o ya, and what exactly is Ska music?)
HyruleanHyroe responds:
I'll pass on your advice, but I don't know how much our drummer will take it to heart. :P Thanks for the encouragement!
If you're looking for a description of Ska, check out my latest news post or look it up on Wiki. If you want examples, I'll suggest what I always do. Youtube search for Reel Big Fish and Mighty Mighty Bosstones. They're both terrific Ska bands.
Great Sound
I love how it's kind of raw... the voice isn't perfect, and that gives it a human quality. I wish they would put songs on the radio like this: unaltered.
HyruleanHyroe responds:
So do we. :)
