Description : Written a few years ago by my buddy Mike Bright.(he's cool with me posting this)He plays all guitar, bass and he wrote the lyrics.I'm just singing on this and I used EZ Drummer for the drums.I mixed it using the pre existing tracks from an 8 track Zoom mrs 802.Oh by the way I welcome any constructive criticism :)

Oh yeah! Good old, proper metal (raise your goats)! You've got a quality voice my friend, which reminded me of Bruce Dickinson / Ozzy. The whole track had an authentic rock band feel to it, full of energy and emotion.

As an old rocker, I really enjoyed it and am really impressed! Keep on rockin buddy! Faved

Thank you very much! I definitely owe the feel and vibe of the song to my buddy Mike who wrote the music and the lyrics, I just tried to find the right sound for the vocals and drums.Still not sure on the drums though.Thanx for the mention of Dickinson and Ozzy, two singers I admire and who I feel have unique voices.I wish I could hit those high notes like Bruce Dickinson consistently though. lol

almost sounds like the drums are in a room somewhere

and the rest is just laying there.

I don't understand why the guitar parts seem so low its like

why isn't it loud more defined pronounced.

I guess you can retweak and get all that fixed yet the vocal stuff is cool indeed.

Thanx a lot DJ!I'll pass on what you said about the guitar to my buddy Mike.And I wholeheartedly agree that this could use a live drummer.I asked one friend of mine but this really wasn't his style.

Thanx Allen!My buddy Mike put the whole thing together a few years back,and I just kind of tried to match the intensity with the vocals and later the drums.Not sure if the drums are quite where they should be.

Thanx Brian!I really appreciate you checking out the track.My friend Mike pretty much had the whole song laid out,we just needed a drum track.I'm not as refined as I could be at working with my virtual drum software,hopefully the more I use it the smoother it'll get.

Description : I asked Danke if I could add some vocals to his track Future Machine and he kindly agreed and sent me the track. The lyrics are about a soldiers experience in war as he and his trench mates are told to get up and out of their trench and attack the enemy across open fields. I can only imagine the fear, tension and chaos that goes through one's mind at that moment.

Description : I discovered Meshuggah around 2003 and was blown away by the power, complexity and super Heavy sound of their music. Their "Nothing" album marked the switch to 8 string guitars and pushed Heavy Metal into a whole new territory. My track is a variant cover of their song "Nebulous". I have stayed pretty close to the original but added a few dynamic elements of my own. Its loud, its super heavy and way out there...Beyond Nebulous.

Description : My heaviest and most extreme track. Also the first with no synths. Crashing and smashing programmed drums and dirty layers of electric guitar (with a psychedelic, Eastern feel at times). Bass guitar plus a slide resonator guitar solo. No drum loops. Don't play this at your grandmother's funeral. Not unless she was a real headbanger.

Guitars are Shreddage 2. Drums are Addictive 2. Daw is Reaper. Vocals need to be fleshed out. Update:3-2-19 Raised the volume of drums and guitars, added a Bass line.

Description : A grimy hard rock track fully produced digitally (even the drums!). The awesome main riff has been provided by prodreiter here on Looperman, and I made the drums in Addictive Drums 2, I will make them available as loops later.

Description : Something I slapped together in like an hour or so, I bought a new midi keyboard with a sequencer which made dragging and dropping sounds where I wanted 'em easy, so really this was a test run, I usually write a lot of metal and don't have the time to upload my material but here's a start, this has a techno vibe???? I guess to it. Enjoy.
