spellchecker Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 i've only listened to the first posted track so far, still downloading the second- drums sound horrible. it's not impossible to create dynamics with drum machines/sequencers- where is the bass? maybe the track isn't finished- guitar sound was quite yucky in parts, needs fattening up in my opinion, perhaps 2 rhythms panned left and right some amount and then your main twiddles center, or something like that. how did you record the guitar? it just sounded crickly instead of crunchy. needs more lard.- vocals i quite liked actually. really cheesy in parts, but a decent mix of styles, sometimes it was quite HIM like, other bits reminded me of james hetfield- the timing on track2 wrt the guitar is a bit funny, it sounds as if you are still getting to grips with computer recording. were you using headphones when recording the guitar? what was coming through the guitar. sounds like you just need to relax more when recording and stop listening for cues and go with the flow of the song.didn't think too much of the song in terms of originality, but it all fits together well and is compact and that.ok, the second one i like a lot more in terms of the song, at least at the start anyway, not sure about the wankfest 2 mins in, think that could be better presented with more interesting drums. the song starts of very misery loves co. in a way.what are you using for the drums? it sounds like a pretty typical drum machine sound. i really like the vocals on track1 actually, they're cool.

Hog Posted April 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 Thanks for your comments. The drum machine is a crap one and I dont know how to programme it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mr Blastcap Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 new hog gearthis is good stuff Mr Hog, i likes the tunes- i think you have an interesting voice that fits your tunes which in my mind is better than having that "local singer" sound! did you not do a metal version of the tune that goes "my heart is a sinking ship"- thats my favourite.big back slaps all round!ps, the wife prefers your stuff to the icarus line, but it is a saturday morning.

Monk Rocker Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 Not too keen on the first track, but I like the second one, apart from the guitar solo which I think adds nothing to the song. I think your voice sounds right for the stuff you are playing.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hog Posted April 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 Thanks peeps. Yeah I dont think the first song works well because i cant programme the drums. It sounds like an 80 s tune lolJust listen to song 2 lol.Heart is a sinking ship song, yeah, metal version, you never know man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zeenat Aman Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 I prefer the 2nd track you posted, but which is actually track 1! You're voice sounds the same as when you did the acoustic thing, I expected more Grrrrrr? Be sure to post up more when you have them.

Guest Scorge Spike Posted April 2, 2005 Report Share Posted April 2, 2005 They're quite good, but they could really do with a live drummer - the double kick rhythms are a bit do-squiff, and have been written in where they don't sound right. Everything else sounds right, even the vocals are passable....I'll give it a thumbs up, even if it's just because I fear you won't buy me a pint.

HummerOfIntenseEvil Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Very nice riffs on the first one. Not quite so sure about the second one. It seems to turn a bit comedy or something. I don't really like the solo on it, although I like the solo on the first one.The singing is quite good in some places I reckon. I prefer the non-growling bits.Certainly a lot of potential there. And incidently, when I say "first one" I mean the first one posted, not the one called track_1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen B Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 Not my bag but despite the quality of recording it still sounds quite professional. I just find that kind of gargling/scream ridiculous sounding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
