Loved The Song!
I listened to a bit of it before i logged in and i was taken by its incredible effect to make me zone out. but i hoped it would pick up right after the beginning because i'm working on a movie project and i need an action sequence piece but one thing i loved about this is the piano that takes over around 3:20? Thanks for the Music!
Good Luck with your future productions!

My opinion
Instead of a long explanation of why I think this song is better than the other guys, or just a long drawn out review.
XD GOOD JOB! Have A BIG! slice of cake!!!!!! yay!
haha I think this made my day.
Oh and CAKE! -nom- :P
A beautiful, strange, apocalyptic piece.
I love how everything fits together, escpecially around 2:50, plus the beggining. The piano, techno sounds, and violin make this a great piece. The thing I liked most about this though was how it changed. It felt like i was walking through an apocalyptic cityscape, and as it went on i was fighting battles and at the end i finally made it to a safe great place. This was defintly one of my favorite songs on newgrounds.
One thing to note about this piece is that the slightly distorted Trumpet is very carefully scored so that you are subtly led into a feeling of an imminent war that is approaching closer to where you are. Without the trumpet, the feeling of the apocalypse would not be so strong :)
Thanks, Glad you like the music :D
Absolutely glorious
I can't get over the beautiful atmosphere in this entire piece. The beginning and ending were PERFECT, and I fell in love with the moving strings at 2:40 and beyond. I just put this on my personal playlist. :)
I do have a question for you though. I am making a small game series in my spare time (non-flash), and am planning a few video teasers and trailers. Would it be alright if I used this piece in one of them? It'd go on youtube, and I'll happily provide this NG link.
Anyway, in short, this is both beautiful and deliciously suspenseful. I absolutely love it.
It would be totally fine for you to use this! ^_^ Thanks for asking, good luck with the projects! :D Thanks for the totally awesome review; Glad you enjoyed it! -musical mastermind at your service- :P
Atmospheric
LOVING the atmosphere of this song. The beginning just sets such an amazing mood, destruction and debris riddle the land as those few humans run from cover to cover in an attempt to escape. As the camera pans up you see the once busy city nearly gone, the machines nearly completely taken over.
Anyway, aside from my imagination, I do find this to be a fantastic peace, my only quarrel with it is towards the middle I feel the Apocalyptic feel is slightly lost as the mood lightens, but it's your song :P
Nice work
Ah yes, you're right the feeling of the apocalypse is slightly lost, yet it is like the part where the last Hero has his final attempt to save the world from destruction - but then even his efforts are not enough to turn it all around. Thanks for the review! Loving your comments/insight ^_^
Cheers :D
Edit: Lol, fantastic peace? ;) had to mention it, made me chuckle in lieu of the statement that followed it :P
