|
 | Trifolium I'm doing great! Hope you are too. It's finally warm again, that helps. Plus I'm going to work in Antwerp for half a year which is exciting!
|
 | Jethro42 Hello Scheumke. You're gonna be happy. Another tourney is gonna start late in april, or debut may. Yet, I continued the thread of the preliminaries of last year, to be sure to catch up with everyone. Will shoutbox you one week in advance. Cheers mate.
|
 | Jethro42 Reminder to vote on Finals. Last day is tomorrow - Tuesday.
|
 | Jethro42 Reminder to vote on M9. Thank you, Scheumke, dude.
|
 | Jethro42 Hey dude, I haven't noticed it before, but I don't have a link for your album. Please give me some.
|
 | Jethro42 Hey Scheumke, I didn't want to offend you. Sorry about my word choices, my English can be a little broken. Your last choice is def better. Not of my style at all. I barely tolerate Ayreon. They have more laid back stuff thanks God. Feel free to keep that album. Man lots of thing is happening in there.
|
 | Divaman Say Scheumke, have you got a song for us this month on SOTD? The theme is Songs With a Color in the Title, https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=197834
|
 | SlothcoreSam Hey Scheumke, give us a song for SOTD. This month the theme is your personal entrance theme. What song do you want playing when you arrive to an event, work or whatever.
|
 | aok oo Dream Theater =] . I like the track "Panic Attack". Other tracks like that I should try?
|
 | Divaman I figured it wasn't your usual thing, heh heh. OK, thanks.
|
 | Divaman Say Scheumke, have you got a song for SOTD this month? The theme is songs under a minute long.
|

|
 | Pangea Hey Scheumke! you got a song for the July sotd? the theme is songs about/from your hometown/local region. https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=192338
|
 | Gnocchi You have a band? That's sweet. Will check when I'm not snowed under
|
 | neekafat Ooooooooh I'll be sure to give it a listen!!
|
 | Trifolium Coooool, going to check for sure!!!!!!
|
 | zakalwe Nice. Will give it a listen mate
|
 | zakalwe Cheers man. I haven?t got Spotify. Is it the Genera album? I?ve grabbed it on iTunes and will chuck you a few quid
|
 | dedex I answered in your list! Is there an album in the cooking?
|
 | Sowing and congrats on the new single btw!
|
 | Sowing Most users announce their own projects via lists as the news is supposedly reserved for prominent acts. If you create a list linking the single I will feature it for you.
|
 | Sowing sure! you can post it and I'll give feedback, or if you'd prefer, shoot me an email first: sowingsputnik@gmail.com
|
 | Pangea that sound good. i do enjoy epic fantasy, but have mostly read the big ones so i will try The Stormlight Archive first. i hear good things about sanderson anyway. i do like the fact that you get dumped into the word, so i will get Malaxan at some point. cheers
|
 | Gnocchi You're welcome. It's as beneficial to me as you I think
|
 | Gnocchi Have a look at some of the edits/comments I've made - looks good.
|
 | Gnocchi Excellent now if you could change the sharing permission to edit or add comment. It's view only at this stage
|
 | Gnocchi Sharable link in my shoutbox that I can edit or at least add comments tooOr robert.garland@outlook.com
|
 | Gnocchi Sure man, I'm very pro Google docs or you can discord or email
|
 | Divaman Hey Scheumke, have you got a song for us this month? https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=190606
|
 | Sowing An application submission thread is always posted, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for it in the coming months!
|
 | Sowing It might be slightly delayed this year, but will most likely still occur in late Q1/early Q2.
|
 | Gnocchi Never hurts to try my man. Contrib roster is a bit short currently anyways
|
 | Gnocchi I'm not part of the decision process, but if you were a race horse I'd have a tenner on you ; ]
|
 | Gnocchi You thinking of going contrib next year?
|
 | Divaman Mine wasn't a direct recommendation either. I got it from a list of Celtic music that WrenKing posted, and it just looked interesting to me.
|
 | buffserker1919 Hi Scheumke! I loved your review for the new Cult of Luna album! Would you mind taking a listen to "Passageways: Haan" by Nick Bufalino? I think you might find something to enjoy. A review would be amazing.
|
 | Divaman Hey Scheumke. I know Tri already contacted you, but I figured I'd big you too. Have you got a song for us for November? Thanks.
|
 | Trifolium Oh man! And indirect ones? For instance through a Deweekly or perhaps a SOTD-thread? Anything goes!
|
 | Trifolium Hi Mr Scheumke! The new Song Of The day thread is opened and you haven't participated yet. Care to join again this month? We would be happy with the recs!https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=189442
|
 | Dewinged Nah don't worry, just had a half ass draft that I started working on in the morning haha
|
 | Dewinged Hey! just to clear it out, your review was great! And it's on me for taking 4 or 5 days to put mine out, so don't take it negatively my man, your doing God's work with your write'ups. I starting to feel a bit better and hopefully will get into full on review mode soon, but the last months have been just horrible.
|
 | Egarran Thank you for single-handedly saving that sowing debate from the abyss.
|
 | Trifolium Hi! I've found another one for your Alcest review: ''decent'' in the Graspop part should be ''descend''.
|
 | Gnocchi A 4 on Garden of Storms huh
|
 | Trifolium I checked Urn and Act II and Act V. Will give them another go sometime later, maybe I just wasn't in the mood? Who knows!
|
 | Trifolium Aw man, I think both bands aren't really my cup of tea. It's vox mostly, but I miss something in the mix/production too. Nice to finally hear something of both bands though, after seeing their names so often!
|
 | Trifolium It didn't happen again. Oops. Today hopefully!
|
 | Trifolium Oh man, I keep forgetting! I'll jam one of each today. Promissseeee!!!
|
 | Friday13th Hey man, we need votes for the elimination round! You can vote on all pairs you've heard!
|
 | Morningrise767 Yeah, hopefully you'll enjoy their stuff haha. They're one of my top 3 fav bands :)
|
 | Morningrise767 Oh sweet! This is the 2nd User comp I've won this week, maybe I should buy a lottery ticket soon... xDI'll choose Katatonia out of those options and I'll add Deftones to the list:)
|
 | Papa Universe they're one of those bands that are well-known because of how long and consistently good they are, even though they never really managed to break out into the world of wide popularity.
|
 | Papa Universe sorry, i was off for a bit and if it aint too late, ill go with QotSA
|
 | Trifolium Oe dat klopt inderdaad! Zal ik doen. Waar zal ik beginnen? Vind je het niet ook heel gek om hier in het Nederlands te praten? Sput voelt altijd als iets verwegs haha! Ik moet ook die eerste band van je rec-competition nog proberen... Oh en even deelnemen voor de smeltende bananen.
|
 | Friday13th Hey man, we need your vote for the latest prog match ASAP!
|
 | Demon of the Fall I'll discuss it with Trifo, thanks. If he has a cool idea of where to go next I wouldn't mind differing my pick, if that's also ok?
|
 | Trifolium Haha, hilarisch! Thanks. I'll have a look at the rules again and let you know later today. Great idea this, hope some more participants will join for the next weeks. I'll use that as a criterion for selecting a band too.
|
 | frozencarl https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=315165you should totally check this and like totally review it
|
 | StrikeOfTheBeast Congratulations sir! You have won the final day of Cards Against Humanity! For your victory, I am giving you a golden ribbon. *places ribbon on shirt I'll be starting up some other game series here so stay tuned for more!
|
 | Davil667 Love your Dizzy Mizz Lizzy rating pal! Such an amazing album and band at that. Don't miss out on their other two records, even if the ratings are a bit on the lower side they are very rewarding :]
|
 | StrikeOfTheBeast You, my good man, are the crowned winner of Cards Against Humanity Day One! For your hard work in achieving this victory, I will give you this handcrafted blue ribbon.*places ribbon on Scheumke's shirtGood luck competing in Day Two!
|
 | DDDeftoneDDD As if the Deftones and Gogira had a blackgaze child, but then you get some really osdm vocals there...I m crazy about this aoty, ups, album. Lol
|
 | Rowan5215 I'd also probably use quotation marks instead of italics for each song name, just because italics signify the food-based paragraphs and you don't want to confuse by using them elsewhere. I also think you could maybe swap the last two paras around, just because the food ones come before the more literal ones elsewhere through the review, but if that's a deliberate subversion you intended then fair enough. great job on this basically
|
 | Rowan5215 lol this is a great theme for a review and weirdly very fitting for a Devin album, I like it. you've got "tough" instead of "though" second paragraph, "build" instead of "built" in the Spirits and Evermore para, "wo" instead of "woe" in the Borderlands para
|
 | Rowan5215 I'm sure I would, if you wanna drop a google docs link or something I'll give it a read!
|
 | Rowan5215 hi there! there are some proofreading threads in the forum part of the site, they've been pretty quiet for a while but you might get some traction if you post there. my advice would be to share it with a user (or couple of users) you trust instead and get their one-to-one reactions, I tend to do that if I'm unsure of a review and find it helps a fair bit :-)
|
 | DDDeftoneDDD you ****er you think you know me!? I already dug Cult Of Luna but never touched this Mariner thing...I'm digging this like hell...and the girl looks possessed! You knew I was tired of all the positive vibe of blackgaze. you Scheumke. TKS
|
 | frozencarl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5tkG7duSJQalso check this out if you're into wintersun-y stuff :)
|
 | manosg Hey dude, thanks for the link! Actually, checked the first two tracks while working and enjoyed them. A bit too symphonic for my liking - I am a bit more inclined towards the speed side of power - but great stuff nonetheless. I will try and jam it a few times but can't promise a review because I've been super busy lately. Even started a couple of reviews and didn't manage to finish them. Sorry about that :/
|
 | Dewinged I'll drop them a line too, but good luck out there!
|
 | Dewinged I see, just watched the video of "For The Fallen", some Crimson Glory going on there ;) To be honest with you, I'd be doing the album a disservice if I review it myself. Your stuff is better in the hands of people like manosg or ScuroFantasma cause they are more familiar with your band's style. PLUS they are staff writers, so their reviews go up in metacritic and a few other places.
|
 | Dewinged Man, wut!? This is your band? lol I am impressed. What's your part?
|
 | Dewinged Sweet dude, thanks. I actually found it on my usual Apple Music spot ;) I'll give it a shot today. Cover art looking good!
|
 | Dewinged Umm send a link to your stuff man, I'll give it a listen first. If I really like it I can do a write up.
|
 | DDDeftoneDDD my first two comments, while the first listen: "This is ****ed up PS: in a good way I guess...still figuring" and "yeah ****...I'm enjoying actually...just have to get use to this transitions practically out of key. If they somehow start to make sense in my head might be that extra .5 on the rate...Loving the vibe, the skill, the variations and quality vocals m/"
