  1. I'm pretty sure that's not what he's getting at at all. If someone hates a particular type of music, how are they to know what constitutes good *insert genre* music and bad *insert genre* music?

    To be honest, I'm not totally in agreeance with that viewpoint - I usually just take each song as it comes and if I like it, I like it, if not, well, I don't.

    That was exactly the point I was trying to make. I also agree with you when you say that each song should be taken on it's own merit. I would like to be able to say that I have the same approach but my own ignorance get's in the way from time to time. It's something that I'm trying to change.

    Still dig this tune though :up:

    Got any others in the pipeline guys? Hows the new line-up getting on?

  2. but then i hate heavy metal music

    so looking at it from your perspective, the bias is inherently against the music and you've lost all sense of objectivity. not being a fan of heavy metal, then you are already ignorant and uninformed of what constitutes good heavy metal.

    enough said, this as an ASD thread, not a tam o' shantie feedback thread.

  3. what do you mean by this? What would be a more informed perspective?

    was referring to the type comments of tam o'shantie mainly - jumping to the conclusion that ASD were "namechecking", amongst other general waffle.

    why not give a producer some credit?

    the music they produce is the best advert they have to generate more interest and income, and in turn buy better equipment to extend they're experience and resources - like buying "new strings" i suppose o_O wtf?!

  4. I was kidding the Bass doesn't sound that good. It's barely audible through most of it. And has a not very good distortion on it(my fault). But it was cutting through even less without it.

    I just few the demo as a way people can hear a rough version of our stuff. Nothing more

    thats fair enough. i have noticed that most, if not everybody, has talked about the sound and nothing about the composition musically. i'm guilty of that aswell. it should seem obvious to people when you put a rough track up that you arent looking for shallow comments about the sound of the guitar or whatever. instead you are looking for feedback on the writing before you go and record it propper.

    in my opinion the vocals could do with a bit of work physically and lyrically. not much wrong with the guitar riffs, if i was being really picky you could maybe add some variation. same with the drums, a bit too straight for me. apologies for being so vague.

  5. I think it sounded alright. Nothing amazing but alright.

    The bass is the shiz though

    The bass is lacking a lot of presence. I dont know an awful lot about this sort of thing but it sounds like the bass is missing exactly that - bass. I'm hearing an awful lot of fret noise and not enough note. That could be down to poor strings, poor playing, poor action on the guitar, i just dont know. But if u think its the shiz then thats what matters right?! That could have been the sound you were looking for. After all the bass is considered the hybrid between percussion and melody.
