I'll review modern genres of rock and any experimental stuff

AbuseArt

Hello!

I will review modern or unusual genres of rock. I'm going to be honest............... Smile

---

In exchange, I expect honest, constructive feedback to my records.
Recently I'm doing different experiments with mixing and mastering, so I need to know how does it sound compared to others.

Hi Ian!

Supercell
I think you listen Deftones! I like the lyrics and very specific colour and articulation of vocals. It creates proper mood and space. Solos are well done. Arangement is simple but good but I think it ends too suddenly.
Sound of acoustic guitar could be way stronger or you could think of adding bass track. First solo at 1:40 sounds really great, you chose the best distortion possible to do it. It sounds awesome but you could remove unnecessary low end. Later, solo guitar changes sound to some narrow, like wah-wah, i think the change is too agressive, those two sounds could be more simillar. The more kinds of sound you use, the worse. Distorted rhythm guitar which comes up after solo sounds good on headphones but its too harshy on small speakers. I dont like distorted voice at all. There are other ways to do it - more resonable. Try using less gain. It's possible to do something interesting with multiband compressor and equalizer too.
To sum up, its very interesting, well performed composition, but it needs a bit more work on recording. This song is difficult to understand. I mean its worthwile but it shouldnt be first track on your album. You didn't mix it perfectly but its doesnt have much tracks so it sounds fine anyway.

Sadistic
Very dynamic stuff with interesting intro. Vocals are not enough loud, try to use some compressor. Lyrics are ok, interesting but hard to get it. (; It sounds more conventional than the Supercell, its easier to understand. At 2:33 you absolutely won, it was cool idea to do this. Your song is very thick and this "HEY" makes things clearer till the end of the song. Solo has again too much low end, you must cut it out. Really cool but it needs some serious work on mixing, to show instruments and vocals more.

Regards
Luke

ok, I checked it:)

For The Strange.
I'm a guitarist and found it hard to understand this sloppy playing as some kind of expression but overall - guitar sounds good. I think if you are not guitarist, you hear it different way. Vocals are very strange but I feel proper precision, they are good. Apart of lot of those false notes it's well-performed music, some people could have serious problems with it though. Your song has several interesting places. Tambourine and overheads, have too much highs, they hurt.

I think this song is good, stuff like 3,5/5
worth listening but not perfect

I just accessed the song every way. from the link here in your review page and from soundclick. It absolutely works. Too bad...this one is shred guitar you would have got a kick out of how different they are in genre.

Thanks for your review!!

This is a Grunge and modern interpretation of early 90's rock my new band did via online collaboration. Called "Little Miss Preppy."

http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8324924

I am influenced by 80's hair metal, 90's rock and etc. But this song is like I said, a modern interpretation of Grunge by my band DEXTER ROTTEN. I think lyrics are attached.

Let me know what you think. Something's not done yet, a part in the end.

Hi Dude,

Can you tell me what you think of this

http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=353847&songID=8315647

It is part of my one chord album and is entirely in Dm with a few dropped bass notes.

Thanks

James
