Hey, could you guys critique the Doomish song I'm writing? I want advice on the actual song, not the production or mixing, because I know they're both awful. Also, the drums are off time because I recorded them on my keyboard, and I can't play keyboard drums in time for my life. And the vocals aren't final, I did them really quick because my friend hadn't come over to do them yet. I'm really looking for more advice on the music. This isn't a full song, just an idea.
Here it is...

I liked it a lot. The vocals sound kinda digitalized though. Other than that it was awesome.

I'm seeing Solitude Aeturnus on April 20. :):)

In Chicago Powerfest? Me too. I'm going for Novembers Doom and Martyr, but I guess Solitude Aeturnus is good too?

Weeaaaak. I should go to Chicago.

I've heard people talk about Solitude Aeternus quite a bit. Are they traditional? What album(s) should I get?

Yes, they are trad. Get Beyond the Crimson Horizon. ****ing perfect album.

Yes, Chicago Powerfest. I'm going for ND as well. \m/

You are fat. And your song gave me explosive diarrhea. :)

NP: My Dying Bride - Thy Raven Wings

They're epic doom. very different to the Vitus style of things. Much more 'heavy metal'.


[QUOTE]What album(s) should I get?[/QUOTE]

Into the Depths of Sorrow
Through the Darkest Hour.

I love every SA album except Alone, which hasn't hit me yet.

/Jealous.
Enjoy.

I want to see some doom bands as well. :(

I wish I could go see Novembers Doom...The Novella Reservoir is SUUUCH a good album. Even if it's ridiculously simple.

I saw them a month back or so.
<_<

>_>

Still Agalloch > Every other band playing that evening.

Stupid European. :mad:

Solitude Aeturnus is downloading now. Since you guys can't give me a concrete answer, I'm gonna go through their disco.

BEYOND THE ****ING CRIMSON HORIZON GODDAMNIT


Yes, the new ND owns, just like all other ND.

Saturnus was just announced. I'm dling an album now.

Whenever I see this thread, I see Trevor made it, and I realize I haven't talked to the kid in forever :upset:.

I got their new album and gave it a listen. They are excellent. I'm pumped at seeing them live.

Matt:
Indeed, Trev hardly ever posts on MX anymore. let alone in this thread.
I speak to him on occasion on MSN though.

on topic of Saturnus:
[I]Veronika Decides To Die[/I] is a great album, if you're going to see them live, enjoy!
They played a great show when I saw them.
The vocalist is a very funnt guy btw. :lol:

Awesome. Now I'm looking forward to seeing them even more.

Saturnus should do more songs like The Fall of Nakkiel (Nakkiel Has Fallen)

I like The Funeral Orchestra.

Anyone like? I love this.

I have the new Warning album. I reckon its the best doom album in about 10 years. It's perfect.

I'm nevar on msn anymore.

I don't really use IM programs much anymore either.

So Unholy is insanely awesome.

Hmmm...I just saw that Boris is playing a show where I live...

Should I go or no?

Yeah, definitely go. Please.

Yes, go.
Boris rock.

I want to see them as well someday.

I'm gonna try to get there for Boris. I hate myself for not being able to see Sunn o))) when they toured last year.

Seeing isn't the best expression for a Sunn O))) gig.

you could better say:
''I hate myself for not being able to [b]feel[/b] Sunn o))) when they toured last year."

:p

I still want to go see them.

Any love for Lair Of The Minotaur here?
Heavy as hell..but not too slow to stop you from listening if you don't like your sludge too slow.

np: Lair Of The Minotaur - Grisly Hound Of The Pit
\m/

I don't really like them.

i enjoy them on occasion.

and that emissions of the monolith tour looks ridiculous. who can give me a ride to the show?

Matt Pike in RS.

lolol.

In an attempt once more to turn up the doom in this thread....

I usually shy away from going over the top wqith proclaimations of the greatness of albums I have recently bought. However, I'm going to go out on a limb here...

Musically, the new Warning album "Watching from a Distance" is one of the greatest albums ever released. Lyrically it is the greatest.

If you have any pretensions of liking emotional and crushingly heavy metal then you MUST buy this album. I can't even begin to describe how moving and amazing this album is.

which band? Warning`? never heard of them... traditional doom metal or what?

Warning are Traditional Doom. I've got one of their previous full lengths and it's great so I'll have to check this out.

i never got a fan of traditional doom metal; i only like funeral and death-doom metal :D
