I still need to get my hands on the Beyond Fear debut.

pate 02-27-2008 08:03 AM

It's quality, but not great. It's got some great tracks, and some stinkers.

Deth 02-27-2008 10:22 AM

Scream Machine is worth the price of admission.

This is one of those things that a lot of North Americans do and it really gives me the grumbles. Look at this for clarification: [url]http://i25.tinypic.com/e0k677.png[/url][/QUOTE]

It depends on how you think about that statement.

It's kind of like mathematical induction: you say that you can always care less about something and if that's true, your lack of care towards something is immeasurable. Ex

"Hey, new Dragonfarts album out!"
"I could care less."
"So you don't care."
"Yeah, but I could care less."
"So you [i]really[/i] don't care."
"Yeah, but I could care less."
"So you [i]genuinely[/i] [b]do not[/b] care."
"Yeah, but could care less."

...

Deth 02-27-2008 10:49 AM

But the limit of that statement is approaching negative infinity, so it's much easier to say "I [I]couldn't[/I] care less" because that's where everything is headed anyway. I would graph it, but screw that.

Shattered_Future 02-27-2008 03:58 PM

But from Riva's picture, I was still correct...

Stormrider 02-27-2008 07:48 PM

Nah, you're still a dumbass.

Shadows Within 02-27-2008 07:53 PM

[QUOTE=Cocaine;16036034]Band is decent but feels totally machine-like and emotionless.[/QUOTE]

yeah that song is pretty straight forward and what not but they have songs like wishing well and the shadow hunter that sound really nice shadow hunter is my favorite because they bring a bit of the south american influence in the beginning of the song wuth the flamenco guitar :p

[QUOTE=Deth;16036205]**** now I have to get the new Yngwie album no matter what.[/QUOTE]

edit: 8,800 GET

pate 02-27-2008 08:23 PM

Also, guys I recorded a power metal album. I'm waiting on my singer to record his vocals, and I'll upload it for you.

It's mainly heavy power, but with a lot of thrash and a few bits of other stuff.

I recorded it like 2 months ago I don't know why I waited until now to post it in this thread.

did you do most of the instrumentation/writing, or was it a joint effort with a band?

in essence more details, please

pate 02-27-2008 08:36 PM

I wrote all the music. Singer writes all lyrics and vocal melodies.


There are 11 songs.

1. Epic orchestral intro
2. Progressive heavy song with acoustic break in middle
3. Traditional metal song
4. Judas Priest style song, that turns into Opeth halfway through
5. Epic ballad that turns into a riff fest
6. Thrasher
7. Trad metal song
8. Iced Earth tribute song
9. Thrasher
10. Judas Priest crossed with regular power metal
11. EPIC 14 MINUTE BATTLE EPIC



Enough detail?? :p

Stormrider 02-27-2008 08:37 PM

needs more screams and galloping.

:p

jrowa001 02-27-2008 08:37 PM

sounds sick Lee. looking forward to giving that a listen

Deth 02-27-2008 08:38 PM

Needs more epic.

pate 02-27-2008 08:39 PM

[QUOTE=Stormrider;16041066]needs more screams and galloping.

:p[/QUOTE]

Actually, there's a shitload of gallops, and some harsh vocal sections. There's even a black metallish part where you nubs get to hear my shrieks.


I'm handling harsh vox btw.

Stormrider 02-27-2008 08:40 PM

Nice. I didn't mean black metal screams, though.

pate 02-27-2008 08:41 PM

Oh. Epic wailing?

My singer will probably do that stuff. He's pro.



And I edited track 8 to a more accurate description.

Hahah, now it is complete!

Speaking of which, I've been back to listening to Burnt Offerings a lot lately. So good.

Like Daniel Heiman Fabio Lionne Epic I can hit notes higher than you wailing?

pate 02-27-2008 09:12 PM

I think so.

He categorized himself as Daniel Gildenlow minus the top half octave, so that's getting up there.

As my friend Greg might put it, my face is anticipating it's inevitable melting.

Okay, so here's Winter Wolf. No vocal melody yet, and I don't like the ending very much. I'll work on that later. The solo is the longest I've ever written and possibly my best yet.

Betrayal is track 1 in The Scarlet Citadel. If you haven't read the book yet, do it. The whole thing will make much more sense then. I really like the riffing here in particular.

It's really good. :)

Has anyone heard of the band Boomerang?

Grumma 02-29-2008 11:02 PM

Are they Australian?

HOLY **** THAT'S [i]HILARIOUS[/I]

Steerpike 02-29-2008 11:39 PM

Don't mean to push guys, but I could really use some feedback.

[QUOTE=Steerpike;16051340]Don't mean to push guys, but I could really use some feedback.[/QUOTE]

I know jackshit about music composition, but I have the feeling that [i]Winter Wolf[/i] would go well with male choral voices, at least at the beginning

S'pretty cool

I'll review the other too at some point
