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
