As I Try - FatalDecline

Description : A collab with nicetones101 ! This has been awhile in the making, real life caught up with me and i had to take a little musical break. I looked over my past comments i received and i tried to put all the constructive criticism to work ! I turned the vocals up a bit , I also cut down on the effects and left a clean vocal track. I did want the chaos and the noise to still be a player in certain parts though. I tried to create two distinct atmospheres, an uneasy calm and a manic episode. I prefer headphones with this track as there is a lot going on at certain times.

If you have time take a listen and give FatalDecline some feedback.

Cool man, you don't hear enough of this style of rock here. Lots of effects on the vocals but it works to fill up space and help create a dark creepy vocal track. You did a great job matching the vocals to the music. The music kicks ass, thick guitars and hard hitting drums always a good combination.

Attitude adjusted, thanks!

Great metal riffs.
Really well produced in my opinion.
Your vocals suit really well this genre.
Have tried some Doom metal?

Beginning music reminds me a bit of early Coal Chamber, just need that marching snare.

Verses are 8th note chunkiness, with more sedated vocals than I expected. Better than a lot of screaming. Not bad.

I enjoyed this. I like the heavier stuff.

I don't see enough heavy metal here.. Lets see what we have here :D

Excited already.... Yessss... @1:16 that switch up takes me back to my teen years... It has a similar vibe to Slipknot's Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat... I ##### loved that album... Oww it ended.. I genuinely loved that.. Well done guys..

I think a little more tweaking on the vocals may be needed, perhaps bring down the frequencies somewhere between the low -mid.. I could be wrong, try it :)

Hey Fatal, dope track bro.
Your gonna laugh but this reminds me a lot of some 60's Psychedelic rock with respect to the vocals. Ever heard Donovan's "Hurdy Gurdy Man"? Anyhow, yeah Nice really riffs it up too with some brutal downtuned stoner groove-ige! I'm digging the collab for sure.

Thanks for listening ! I am stoked you got a psychedelic rock vibe, cause i am really pushing for a stoner rock kinda thing :) yes i have heard "hurdy gurdy man" I like the song too !
I am trying to take a lot of inspiration from the vocalists and poets of the 60's and 70's .
thanks once again for listening and the kind words. YOU ROCK !

Yo.

You sure do have some low end heavily detuned riffage going on here. Is that a 7-string guitar?

I quite like the vocal style as it's unexpected (not obvious metal vocals). Perhaps might be too much reverb on the vocal but that's OK. Might be a little bit like some of the Deftones' stuff.

A well made track.

Not spectacular but solid.

Congrats.

Thanks for the listen ! I am slowly trying to use less effects on my vocals, I tend to layer too much i think ;p

I am happy you like the vocal style, I am a HUGE Deftones fan so the influence is most definitely there.

As for the guitar questions, that was all nicetones101 , I know he plays a 7 string, but not sure if he did on this track, it has been in the works for awhile, but i can get back to you with the info !

Thank you for the kind words, you rock !

Hey Fatal great job on this track! Dig your vocal style / approach, I really liked the big delay on the hook of the song
though I couldn't quite make out the last word. Correct me but it sounds like you were saying "You are Nothing?" Tried pulling up the lyrics but couldn't get into that section for some reason. With that low metal groove, this is a around great track for this genre. Great Job

Thanks for listening ! I don't have the vocal cords for the constant screams that metal has these days, so i took a more Sabbath/katatonic sort of approach.
You are absolutely correct "you are nothing" is what i was saying! I think you have to be signed into the site to pull up the lyrics:).
Thanks for the compliment and the kind words, you rock !

Description : Nursery rhymes.
Something waaaaaaay different. LOL.
Ok, so my friend and I were drinking few weeks ago and we came to idea, as he have 3 small children, to make song for children (nursery rhymes). It was really fun to do and a lot of effort, expecially with vocals. Maybe we will make more in future.
Song is in Croatian, English translation in lyrics.
Love and peace.

Description : This one I actually kinda like cause it has a more complex melody, and features a bit more harmony. Fun!
It is a little quiet tho, sorry.
Also- I don't actually know if 8Bit Chiptune is the right genre... whatever.
