Hades responds:
Can't really say I thought of this as a Crash-styled song, but I'll take it as a compliment! ;D Thanks!
This is actually pretty good
The guitar samples you're using could have been better and the drum set too, but regardless this tune has it's catchy moments. Keep up the good work.
Hades responds:
Yup, the samples are definitely the biggest setback for this one. But good guitar and drum samples are usually the hardest to find, so I don't bother myself much with it. ;D Thanks for the comment!
I'm not entirely sure...
...exactly WHAT to think of it. But I definitely thought the riffs you had were tight and pretty cool. Is that actually a real guitar though?
It almost sounds more like midi to me.
Nice work, dude.
Hades responds:
Nope, I still don't have enough money to buy myself a program that would allow me to actually record my guitar, so this is just a guitar VSTi used in FL Studio. And as far as those go, they pretty much sound MIDI-ish, sadly. Anyways, thanks a lot for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it!
Nice! :)
First off, I have to adress something to Etherealistic. People like you don't have a single idea what "heavy metal" means. If it's not sounding "heavy metal", it doesn't belong into "heavy metal". Great argument. Of course you can't give an explanation "why", because...in all honesty, you wouldn't know what to say. So I tell you this, next time you try to be smart, get some informations first and think twice before you want to comment on a song.
It does very much belong into "heavy metal".
Anyways, on to the song. For a synth based track, this is pretty nice. The synth guitars do sound pretty ok here, though you still can detect the "unrealness". The riff however is very catch and delivers a good mood. It kind of reminds me of an RPG type game, when there is a funny situation. It's cool and groovie. ;)
Drums are pretty weak here, sadly...but they do their job. Overall I say nice little track with a couple of flaws. 4/5. :)
Hades responds:
Yup, detecting the 'unrealness' with these instruments is possible from any point closer than the Moon, but sadly, I don't really have the green papers to buy myself Guitar Rig or any of those lovely programs. The drums are facing the same issue, as EZDrummer (mysteriously) also costs money. But I'm hoping to solve at least one of those problems in the near future, so we'll see how that turns out...
As for the comments on the song itself, yeah, I did find the riff really catchy- when I first played it, I was going over and over like an idiot for about twenty minutes. ;D I didn't really consider it as a possible track for an RPG, but now that you've mentioned it, it does kinda sound like some more funny-oriented themes used in videogames.
As always, dude, thanks a lot for the review, any criticism is always welcome.
sorry its just not metal too me
metal to me is hardcore music that i listen to when im pissed.... this isnt metal to me.... still decent song
Hades responds:
Yeah, but there are a whole lot of different sub-genres, too! I can see your point, as metal generally is a bit more aggressive and fast-paced, but I'm still glad you liked it enough to write a review. Thanks for the comment!
