[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I made it. I found a couple CoB picture na dphotoshopped them. There are a couple other people around here with copies, only in a different color as well. It's sort of a CoB Crwe thing.[/QUOTE]
can u make me one in green :p?

Shadows 09-14-2005 03:06 PM

[QUOTE=Laihoistheman]can u make me one in green :p?[/QUOTE]Sure, but a green one is already in use (I believe Taste My Scythe). I could make you one a different shade of green, or a different color altogether if you like.

[U][B]Ultima Review[/B][/U]

[B]Lurker:[/B] This is the best ive heard out of you guys. The verse is catchy and then the arpeggio bit fit perfectly. Also the lead in the verse sounds cool. Also in the breakdown you should add in some pinch harmonics. I like the lead over the acoustic bit too it sounds calmer then you bust out this solo...ha, the fade out solo thing is interesting. Good solo none the less.
[B]
Ragnarok:[/B] Intro is a bit repetitive. If you fool around a little more you could come up with something really cool. Oohh, lyrics are cool, i like em. I like the riff at bar 57. Its very Iron Maiden-esque. Dude this is an awesome solo! It's perfect...period....As is the second solo. Good job once again.

[B]Riff 4:[/B] Catchy intro. Your main influence must be Iron Maiden w/o a question. The verse is sweet too. I like how it sounds different from all the others youve done. The main riff repeating a bunch of times was a good idea... The feel of this song is very aggressive to me...the solo is sweet once again. Higher and higher and then the shredding commences....and back to the main riff. This is very good stuff.

Okay it seems you take a lot of time on your songs. How do you create this stuff or become inspired?

Also does Vedua want to check out some of my new stuff? :D

Looks like I inadvertantly stepped ahead of Josh and made Hatecrew avatars. I feel terrible. :(

Sure he does.

IheartSP 09-14-2005 03:47 PM

I wanna see your new stuff.

My writing process can be pretty random. Usually I start by hearing a riff in my head and tabbing it out or just messing around on the guitar and stumbling upon something cool. Once I have a riff I start checking out other songs to see the kinds of techniques they can use, and use that and theory applied to my own song. Some parts of Ragnarok were written by my rythym guitarist, the verse, prechorus, and chorus. I wrote the intro, the solos, the bass, drums, and lyrics. Lurker I wrote in a matter of 2 days it was just a creative spurt I guess.

Try looking at some different stuff for inspiration. Don't just listen to music, study it. Open up a guitar pro, find out the mode in a song, the techniques used, the harmony between the lead and the rythym. For example the soft acoustic part to Lurker was inspired by Nemesis by Arch Enemy. I saw they took the awesome chorus lead and made an acoustic rythym for it, so I decided I would try something like that out. Also keep in mind drums and bass can make the songs much smoother and help fill in gaps and transitions.

I will have you all recordings hopefully before November, I can't wait for you to hear the real thing.

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 03:56 PM

Woo hoo! Its on Powertabs for anyone else who wants to look at em.

Song 2 (5:10)
hxxp://s50.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=37RKDINT8LEB23F7PK8Q7H6VX2

Song 10 (5:45)
hxxp://s50.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0ZWXFXWOFCK9Q1YR1CN3ZJ4DRC

Song 11 (unfinished)
hxxp://s50.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2Z3ENUHZY4FJD3L1ABRDZPG2GM

EDIT: Yeah i see how that works. I thought it sounded familiar :p Ive gotten inspired by horror movies before which is how Song 5 came about if i remember correctly so it should sound slightly akward

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:05 PM

I just looked at song 2, and wow it was amazing! I can definately see your In Flames influences. Besides a few out of key notes here and there it was great. My only real complaint is in one part you have a lead that repeats for 2 measures, the rythym just goes an octave up in one of them. It'd sound ebtter if you got rid of that measure and went straight to the one with the other powerchord.

Time for songs 10...

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:09 PM

Dam i should have told you before. Song 10 should be Dropped D instead of Dropped C. My bad

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:10 PM

so its all a step lower than it should be?

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:11 PM

Exactly. Sorry about that.

Shadows 09-14-2005 04:12 PM

The song on it's own should still sounds fine though, even if you usually play it tuned differently.

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:14 PM

Yeah it sounded really awesome even in drop c. I thought it was great, sounded a lot like Shadows Fall. The riffs were just amazing, and a totally different style than the first song. Your writing got 1000x better I really hope you have a good band for this stuff.

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:19 PM

[QUOTE=IheartSP]Your writing got 1000x better I really hope you have a good band for this stuff.[/QUOTE]
Thanks i hope it did. Yeah thats my worry too :lol: Im looking for a drummer still and I havent met my guitarist yet

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:19 PM

Wow 11 is just, wow....

It sucked until the lead came in, but that's just a few bars. I ddin't like that part. When it goes distortion, it almost made me cream my pants it was that good.

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:20 PM

WTF? So it was bad but it made you shard?

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:20 PM

No it sucked until the lead came in. After that it was pure gold.

Do you have any kind of instant messanger?

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:36 PM

No, why?

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:37 PM

It's much easier to discuss these things on there as opposed to here.

Shadows 09-14-2005 04:39 PM

Yes - yes it is. It's probably the instantaneous nature of the instant messanger. The instant messages are quicker to recieve than a non-instant post on a board.

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:41 PM

Way to explain common sense

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:46 PM

Yeah I think taht about sums it up :p

flamesofbodom 09-14-2005 04:56 PM

We need more colors for the avatar. Then when i scroll down it will look like an attack of M&M reapers

Shadows 09-14-2005 04:56 PM

Go boink yourself!

yeah i askedc shadow to make me an orange one....green was taken :p

Shadows 09-14-2005 04:59 PM

I'll experiment with colors as soon as I'm done with my AYDY? review.

IheartSP 09-14-2005 04:59 PM

If someone wants to make me a turqoise or something else cool i'd take it

I tabbed out part of one of my band's songs. It sounds incomplete without drums/keyboard/other instruments though :-(

It's powertab by the way.

And the last warning, it's very technical death like, so some of you may hate it.

EDIT: The MIDI sound makes it sound horrible.

Somebody listens to Opeth :p

I thought it was really cool. Awesome bass, very expirimental guitar.

Shattered_Future 09-14-2005 07:10 PM

Mrrr everybody with these fuc[COLOR=White]k[/COLOR]ing POWERTABS!

I want to hear these, but powertabs doesn't work on a mac...any chance of upping these in mp3?

Ben, once again, brilliant review. :thumb:

Shadows 09-14-2005 07:11 PM

Thank you very, very much. :) I was going to go all out and offer tons of uploads, but MX sunk that one. :( I had to work with plain text.

IheartSP 09-14-2005 07:27 PM

Could you at least here my guitar pros?

It's a real biotch to convert midi to mp3 btw, i did it last weekend it took forever and involved stealing software.
