The riffs were cool, but I stopped as soon as I heard the vocals.

Why?

[RustedPieces]

Because it's not my style. I don't like the screaming.

[Fromtheashes]

Thats cool. Sometimes I dont like that kind of singing.

[Stubb]

You guys remind me of shadows fall. Not really my thing, i'm more of a deathhead, but not to bad.

[Fromtheashes]

Thanks for checking it out dude.

[Reywas]

I really liked the song but I thought the lyrics were kinda weak but apart from that very very good.

[moogoogaipan]

The quality was great. I'm impressed, but I dislike screaming. Plus i'm more of a jazz dude myself.

[\m/etal \m/an]

Loving that 'Hallowed' song, dude. But i have to say that the vocals arent my thing at all, but in the category of that singing its some of the best i've heard from an up and coming band. Your riffs are awesome!

[Fromtheashes]

Thanks for listening everyone. I know the vocals can get irritating sometimes but it fits the music.

[Po0sH]

Sounds like Testament. I thought it was ****ing awesome!


I listened to Hallowed, and I was like not bad not bad,then the double bass kicked and I nearly shat myself. Awesome.

[Po0sH]

Also, the lead singer/guitarist looks badass.

[Corro Leper Affinity]

I was incredibly impressed, i would by ur CD neday, for some reason the vocals sound a little like mudvayne and thats a good thing in my oppinion :) nice

[deathscreamingsheep]

I don't usually dig the sort of vocals you have, but from what I've heard, your screaming/singing sounds to be one of the best of the bunch.

I also like your drumming a lot: the double bass and the big fat drum rolls that are technically good, but also fit the music.

Sounds a bit like Testemant with good riffs et all.

Nice in other words.

BDW: What set-up did you use to record your sound as it seems very high quality?

[Rockafella]

Fantastic I absolutely loved your vocals and musicianship and OAAD is the most awesome song I've heard in quite a while. Good Job guys! :thumb:

[lazyrage]

WOAH this made me register in this forum... usually i came here and only listened. but i just had to leave a reply on this one. awesome songs!!

[Trooper]

I liked it other than the screaming parts. Your singer is quite a good singer but when he screams it kills the song in my opinion.

[Nick Morzov]

nice!

[El_Goodo]

The guitar and stuff was the basic metal guitar, nothing new here but it was still good sounding cause I enjoy my metal guitar. But like the others...the singing I didnt care much for...sort of sounds like Pantera's singer...Pantera's the only band with that kind of singing I enjoy.


On second listen the singings actually listenable...but it's all very un-original. I mean I feel like I've heard the song before, by bands like Godsmack.

[StevoTheBassist]

Nice work.

I know we arent breaking any new ground. And in a way its kind of good that there was a certain familiarity to the song for you....in my opinion. Its kind of hard to be totally original with metal these days. But we ljust like to write hard hitting stuff. Passive listeners get off on music like that. Thanks for listening bro...

[Stubb]

^It should be all about making awsome **** that you can listen to if you ask me. And if thats what your band is about, more power to you...

Did you listen to my band?

[studmuffin]

the first two songs, Hallowed and OAAD (?) sounded like almost the same song to me. good but real similar. vocals aren't my thing but musicianship overall was pretty good i think. i liked the different guitar effects, drumming got a little repetitious IMO. production was good also.

[LetsRoc]

I listened and thought it was great, very heavy and being compared to Pantera is a compliment in my books. The vocals were fine, I think your singer has a good voice and fits the music well. how do I get a copy of your demo?

[Shady Ultima]

Nice riffs, great tone on the instruments. I love the singer's voice, it's got a really nice raspy sound that I like a lot. Keep it up cause you guys have serious talent there!

This was really good music! It's not my kinda style, but in that genre, it's really great! Keep up the good work!

Cool deal brother..what kind of music do you listen to?

[Rod3in1band]

Sweet transitions on OAAD. I had to keep listening to the rest of the intro cause i just had to know where it was going to take me. great job on gradually bringing the tempo down.

[VictorDead]

Cool deal brother..what kind of music do you listen to?

I mostly listen to black metal and stuff like that, but I think your music was really good. Someone mentioned Shadow's Fall, I think your music is better than that.

[psychodelicmonkeyfromspace]

too heavy for me, but it's definately good. I don't like the vocals.

[AA-12]

Awesome stuff man. From my state too. :cool:

[Local_Skater]

You guys remind me of shadows fall. Not really my thing, i'm more of a deathhead, but not to bad.

That is absolutely nothing like Shadows Fall. Its more like Disturbed.

Anyway:

I thought everything about it was generic man. The vocals / lyrics were exactly what I'd expect from how the songs started off. As for the people who said they don't like the screaming...what screaming? I didn't hear anything except for a little bit of a growl when you repeat "I hate myself" (very stupid line by the way). The instruments wern't very interesting to me either. Nothing struck me as great or original with them. I know its the style of music you've chosen, but still. You could afford to make it more interesting. Not for me guys. 5/10

Bullshlt...

[VictorDead]

Bullshlt...

Well, that's your opinion..

[Local_Skater]

I appreciate that, but Shadows Falls instrumentalists are much better, and thats a fact. The same can't be said for the singer though.

[VictorDead]

That may be, but I only said that I liked their music better than Shadow's Falls music.

[Neon Dub]

Nice production. Esspicially the kick drum's.

Thats cool. But I dont think its fair to call us generic or boring. We dont sound anything like Disturbed at all. And my lyrics mean something to me so if you think a line is stupid thats ok. It has meaning for me.

[Fromtheashes]

I appreciate that, but Shadows Falls instrumentalists are much better, and thats a fact. The same can't be said for the singer though.

Oh in addition...how old are you...15? I dont see where you come off as being some musical genius.

[imtayayk]

not bad, good recording. kinda sounds the same as a lot of stuff from 1995. maybe a little experimentation wouldnt hurt. pretty good though.

[Local_Skater]

Why do say thats cool and then get completely defensive? It doesn't make sense. Anyway, you are generic. I could have sworn I was listening to Disturbed or Three Days Grace when I listened to your stuff. The vocals and lyrics are almost cloned. Thats fine that the lyrics have meaning to you also. Okay, so you hate yourself. I don't want to hear about it. I would listen to the two above bands if I did.

As a matter of fact I am...and where do I come off saying that I'm a musical genius?

Dude...we dont sound ANYTHING like Three Dyas Grace...you must not have listned to carefully to my material.

[Runner9]

Holy crap, I don't normally like this kind of music but you guys are sick! Amazing stuff in my opinion.

[filth and fury]

your band is, to me, one of the better metal bands out there.

Thanks dude..thats cool!

[PepsiMetal]

Guitars = Nice, very nice riffs.
Drums = Awesome recording. It's like a studio recording. Bass drum is great too.
Vocals = They are ok, but they aren't unique at all. It's almost like every other generic band out there. With cool riffs and good drumming, you need good vocals. Someone with interesting and uniqueness is best. That guy's vocals dont seem to be unique whatsoever to me.

But, if you think it's great, that's all that it matters really. That was just my opinion.

[SporKsBaSSisT]

Great quality recordings, solid songs. You guys will go somewhere at least underground. My only thing was this....."CHANGING THE FACE OF METAL!"
It's pretty generic to me haha.

[Stringbreaker]

I really liked it man.

OMFG!

****ing rocked! like the bio says: aggresive but melodic!

[Knavery]

Sounds good. Don't change a thing. I liked the vocals. I don't think they were too harsh sounding. Although I was a huge Pantera (God rest Dime's soul) and Slayer fan back in the day. You can take all of our opinions to heart, but the second you change your sound to please the majority is the second your music will turn to sound with no soul.

I agree with that. Its all about what we feel is true.

[clairvoyant]

It was alright. Not really my style of metal but I could definitely handle it. It sounded kinda generic at parts but the end of "Crickets" started to get really good...then it ended :(

[thefoxymoron]

Good metal there. OAAD is mad. Lyrics are only okay, didnt like the chorus that much, only lyrics-wise. Vocals are excellent, I don't like bands where you can't understand anything, but I could understand everything, and it was great. Great guitars, good, heavy sound. Intros to songs are great. Not sure if anyone has said, but some of it sounds like 80s Metal - Megadeth, Anthrax (guitars and John Bush) - which is great, 80s Metal rocks, plus some newer ideas just add to these songs. All songs have good staying power. Great stuff.

You are pretty intuitive. We are trying to combine old school metal with a modern flair to it. I guess we are accompishing our task. Thanks for listening dude.

[Badreligiondude]

Really powerful, strong drumming and great vocals. Pretty good stuff overall.

hey, just wondering, whats the name of your cd, i never really buy off the internet or order, heard some bad things about buying over internet, plus postage costs a lot (live in Aus)

thanks, probably helps if i want to do something with the music industry when i get out of school.

only crit is that you don't use vocals to your advantage...
