Great!
Veery good composition, really proffesionally sounding! I would change some things, though, not int the music, but rather in mixing. Guitar solo starting 1:30 is a little too quiet for me and it sounds a bit flat, but that can be because of MP3 compression, as well as because of VST. What I particularly like is killswitch-style guitar, and string ensamble, they make this tune EPIC. Keep up the good work!
The Mp3 does lower the sound quality (particularly the highs), but that's no excuse for a flat mix. Changes are in the works, thanks for the review!
Lawson Leavell speaking
You are by far THE best music producers out there. Movie class.
I have listened to countless DJs, movie musicians, and producers of all sorts.
I made this new grounds account just to make this review!
You are absolutely one of my inspirations. Your mind must be as deep as your music makes ours.
Please keep up the wonderful work. You are being admired by more people then you think.
Wow, thank you! I'm glad you can find inspiration through my work. It's a real motivator for me when I know there are people positively affected by my work!

Finally...
I've been waiting for this to come out since the game came out! After playing the first level, I tried to find this soundtrack. Couldn't find it back then. And I forgot about it after waiting for a week or so.
Now, after checking on your profile (I was listening to the new version of Four Brave Champions, don't usually check the General Rock section) I see "Colony."
I love this song.
Glad you found it- thanks for the review!
Awesome song!
This song is really suitable for the game itself and the title. The blend of music is really what makes the song great. The songs you make are getting better and better and all of them are good and enjoyable. I like the ending part of this song where the piano was played. Hope you can keep up the fantastic work you are doing. I hope to see you make more songs in the future. Great job! 5/5 10/10
So damn good!
Has a lot of themes and nice transitions and it has kind of a story to it...
The beginning is perfect, a bugle calling men to arms. The electric guitar gives a futuristic feel to the song, and the little bass thing sounds sexy; the whole section sounds like the preparation of the armies. The string section gives it that classical pre-battle music and blends perfectly with the futuristic feel with the guitar, the armies marching to battle, and the "Charge!" transition was nicely done. The slow guitar section gives me the image of one of the armies (say G&Y) getting outflanked and having to retreat before they are surrounded. The following piano part sounds like it fits the scene of the destruction left behind by the R&B army. The music gets fast again, R&B is catching up and victory is near. But oh noes, they've been ambushed! (2:42-3:07) It was all a trap! G&Y are kicking ass, they've got R&B surrounded. However, R&B are holding they're ground showing there serious after the guitar melody ends. G&Y don't have many tanks for some of them were destroyed prior to falling back. In the next piano section, R&B still has trouble though, and it doesn't go very well. But they find out that reinforcements are on the way! R&B's 2nd battalion blasts through the back of the G&Y circle, almost unnoticed while getting into an effective position. The rest of R&B's 1st battalion regroups and then they own G&Y. G&Y's 2nd battalion gets there but is too late and R&B was well in prepared and position, slaughtering G&Y one by one. They then move on to the G&Y base and destroy the litlle defense army with extreme ease. The battle is over and R&B victorious, but let us not forget the brave souls who's lives were lost in the battle...
It's probably not even close to what you had in mind when you made it but it's what i feel happened. AWESOME SONG!!!!
