09.13.12 | I made these in about two days in Audacity, so the sound quality leaves much to be desired. Js. |

09.13.12 | alright. ill check it out |
BloodandRainbows
09.13.12 | awesome. you're a champ, Fluttertrank. |
Crymsonblaze
09.13.12 | This actually sounds excellent for audacity |
Fluttertrank
09.13.12 | you too man. haha
but yeah that was pretty cool. i like the music in general. the singing is pretty good too though
it could be better. Stone the Sophist is pretty good. |
MadMikeLove
09.13.12 | I'm an asshole. track 2 immediately made me think of specular reflection - BTBAM
Vocals need a lot of work, and the sound quality could've been worse, actually. I didn't dig the music but that's just me. Also you're drums straight up sound 8-bit.
not trying to burst your asshole. again, sorry if i soound too dickish or if I have nothing substantial to say. |
BloodandRainbows
09.13.12 | yeah I've since taken vocal training and these were sorta rushed. haha the drums were done by putting a microphone under the snare. it's a slapshod demo, criticism is expected and appreciated. |
BloodandRainbows
09.13.12 | besides, it's kinda hard making metal without a guitar, you know? |
MadMikeLove
09.13.12 | well that's step #1 shit. |
BloodandRainbows
09.13.12 | I'm taking lessons this semester at college haha. maybe I'll be able to throw down some power chords by thanksgiving. |

MadMikeLove
09.13.12 | I'm also gonna do the same thing next semester. It sucks not knowing how to play guitar, all I can do is drum and sing, and i put a lot of effort into improving both, but that's all i do haha |
SCREAMorphine
09.13.12 | Sounds great, for a demo it couldn't be better.
Your song writing is very strong, great stuff |
JakeStallion
09.13.12 | Wow, this was surprisingly cool. I actually liked the sound of the drums. There were some great piano/synth lines in the songs too.
Also, just be glad you can at least sing and play drums, haha. ALL I can do is play drums. I learned guitar about 4 years ago but have since given up, and have also tried and failed to sing. |
Ovrot
09.13.12 | no guitar power metal

But seriously, this is pretty energetic and fun. |
Captain666
09.14.12 | sounds bro I dig it, I agree vox could be stronger and mixed in better as they're kinda low in the mix
the music is excellent and I can def tell u know what ure doing keep at it bro, wat r u using for drums? keyboards are awesome btw |
dsroka005
09.14.12 | I can mix your tracks man been doin it for awhile... wwrdrummer@yahoo.com... i'll do it free of charge if it's just those two songs. I need somethin to do lately anyways. |
BloodandRainbows
09.14.12 | @dsroka005 - thanks man, I'll see if I can get the individual ones. I'll be re-recording these two as part of a full album (7 songs, 40 minutes) so I might wait to work with you on those.
@Captain - I'm using Ludwig 26" kick/toms, evans snare, zildjian cymbals, tama IC pedals. (not that the sound is clear enough to make a difference haha) |
Captain666
09.14.12 | damn, so you play all the instruments? thats f'ing awesome bro
i really do see a bright music future for you bro
not like money wise but someone who i feel has the ability to write some really solid stuff, keep it up and keep me posted, feel free to shoutbox me whenever |
BloodandRainbows
09.14.12 | are you implying that my piano-metal isn't marketable? :P and thanks, I will def let you know when I record the full album. I'm a music major so hopefully it'll end up money-wise too in some way lol. |
Captain666
09.14.12 | sorry i dont think of money with music its just my nature, so i was just implying that what i was "seeing" was solid music, which to me is more important
but i can understand if you went to school for it you'd prolly wanna make a career out of it and thats cool too, its tight out there and i wish you the very best bro, ill be lookin out for ya |
BloodandRainbows
09.14.12 | no offense taken lol. there's a difference between making art and making product, as Hydra Head just
put an exclamation point on =\ money tends to compromise creative vision, so I appreciate the
compliments and the well-wishes equally. do you play/write? |
Captain666
09.14.12 | yup
everything under "Trvth" and "Crevice" on this site is mine.
Under "Trvth" alpha is a prog-rock album and the new one im doing will be all thrash, this is all recorded more professionally than "Crevice"
under "Crevice" both the ep and lp are folk acoustic recorded on my iphone |
BloodandRainbows
09.14.12 | holy hell dude your Trvth album has gotten some serious pos. well done, sir. recorded on your iPhone
and it's that good? that's not even fair, man. not even fair. \m/ |
Captain666
09.14.12 | haha thanks man, only the Crevice project is with the i-phone, not the trvth project
but yea theres some really cool supporters on this website and i love to support other user artists as much as possible, especially metal user projects which there are very few believe it or not |
RunOfTheMill
09.14.12 | Hey this isn't bad at all. Yeah, vocals need some work, for sure... But your synths/piano work is great. |
BloodandRainbows
09.16.12 | Did anyone listen to the other albums by any chance? Thoughts? |
