Description : This track is far removed from my usual. My knowledge of metal is limited to Black Sabbath's 70's album, "Paranoid" so some of you true metal heads may give a little snicker when you hear it. As a drummer, this track lended itself to some nice drumming, so I thought I'd expand my horizons and give it a try. I even threw in a little Goth! Midiman James helped out on our back-to-back solos...Thanks James. Give it a listen and downloads always welcome.

If you are going to know a heavier rock band, Sabbath was a good choice. I had never seen Orange amps till I saw them in a film clip using them.

The beginning was a bit deceiving, wasn't expecting all that happens after that! What do you have for effects on the rhythm guitar around 1:28. It is interesting for sure. The choir pad was different. :) Drums are clean and punchy and the guitars sound great. Tons of energy just like Sabbath had.

Very cool Scott and James!

Hey, thanks allot Wayne. Yeah, I got into Sabbath due to the drum solo on one of their tracks. I never got much further into metal than this.

To be honest, I can't answer your question on the effects on the guitar. I'm not a guitarist, so don't know.

Thanks allot. The drums are my Aleses electronic kit set to the Metal setting. I wish I was able to use my acoustic kit, but it's just not possible where I live. The Alesis also allow for different music styles.

Cheers,
Scott

hi Scott. I really liked fine sounding guitars in here. I do not really get the choirs, probably it is a refference to the older rock music you mentioned... Overall a powerful piece with some very good riffs. NIce one! Alex

Hey Alex,

Many thanks for your comment. As I mentioned, I'm not an authority on metal, but I have heard some earlier stuff that had the choir. I know Gothic Metal uses choirs a good bit.

Cheers,
Scott

Great Track Scoot. I am so glad Eddie Van Halen stopped by my home to lay that led down. LOL

Thank you so much, Danke...You're too kind. So glad you like it enough to download it. To me, having people download my stuff is as important as a kind word, but I do love to read those words!

Description : ANGELIC TRAP the first exhibit of ANGELIC TRAP, a new sound
I'm pushing: wide layered leads, wide pads, angelic choir synths
and a fully worked-out structure at a fast tempo.

Hard-hitting low end and heavenly voices on top - like a church
choir flying over gloomy Russian panel blocks. New genre, same frost.
Inspired by the night vibes and the dark panel
apartment blocks of the Leningrad Region, Russia.

Description : I wrote the lyrics for this track, and the music was created by artificial intelligence. The lyrics are original; I wrote them myself. I don't have the ability to create music for this track, but I hope you'll at least like the lyrics. I'm presenting these tracks to you in the form of a demo - this is what they might sound like. I want you to evaluate my lyrics. I was inspired by the band Aria.
