Rate the song above thread - Help another brother(musician) out!
7 replies, posted
Maybe we can have thread like WIP thread but with finished songs? I think this can be good idea but I obviously can not rate song above but instead I will rate two songs when people have posted.
So idea of thread is you first listen to whole song posted above, and rate from 1(just noise to ears) to 5(song that you want to replay), and also write three good and three bad things.
In example I can show how to rate song or maybe even have as template when rating song!

[B]Good things[/B]
[B]1:[/B] Decent enough recording quality
[B]2:[/B] I liked the riffage a lot, it's badass and the tone is good.
[B]3:[/B] Very good/tight drummer.
[B]Bad things (I hate this part, but I will try to keep to constructive)[/B]
[B]1:[/B] I think the bass drum was a little too loud
That's honestly all I could think of, I enjoyed it a lot, but didn't rate it a full 5 because of the bass drum. I'd still replay it though!
Here's my submission:

Good things
[B]1:[/B]Insanely good guitaring, other covers I hear always sound false but this sound like Page but also personal for your guitarist, a true cover with both homage to old song and personal touch.
[B]2:[/B]Drumming and also synth is good I like both synthsounding at start and also pianosounding at end.
[B]3:[/B]Sounds like playing in garage
[B]Bad things
1:[/B]Singer is doing bad job and also really low in volume, it is like she doesnt want to sing song?
[B]2:[/B]Sounds like playing in garage I know it is weird having both as good and bad but I think biggest problem really is just volume of every instrument so maybe it is just the mixing that is biggest problem.
Here is another song for rating, come on people I know you all want to post your music and you make other people happy and also in return get happy when people say good things about your songs :smile:

Good things
1:I like the lightning sounds, they really add to the athmosphere
2:Really nice, crisp and heavy guitar sound
3:Pretty catchy in it's own way, the riffs stay in my head.
Bad things
1:The guitar and lightning together are a little too loud and muffle the drums behind them at some parts
2:The drums sound out of place, I expected the drums to be little indrustrial styled and if not that, at least a lot heavier with some reverb
3:The structure is pretty flat, maybe throw a solo somewhere or something :v:
Maybe now I can get at least some feedback for this one:

[B]Good things:
1.[/B] The sound quality is very nice.
[B]2.[/B] Melodies are very relaxed and nice.
[B]3.[/B] Doesn't get repetitive
[B]Bad Things:
1.[/B] Around halfway through the song it just stops and completely changes. It sounds more like 2 songs squished together because of that. Make the transition a bit smoother.
[B]2.[/B] The ending reprise should've had something more, maybe some strings or choir to give it a little more energy.
[B]3.[/B] Some drum fills and beats are questionable.
[B]4.[/B] Ending is a bit anti-climatic. It just kind of stops.
Anyways, other than the little nitpicks I posted above, its a solid song that I could listen to if I didn't have anything else to do.

4 stars.
I don't generally like metal but my favourite metal does tend to be any with a great atmosphere.
[B]Good things:
1.[/B] Love the intro, it sounds very atmospheric. This comes back at the end which is nice
[B]2.[/B] I really like the build
[B]3.[/B] Very good use of percussion throughout
[B]4.[/B] The topline that comes in at 8:30 is very nice
[B]Bad Things:
1.[/B] At around 3 minutes it begins to lose some of the atmosphere as the heavier instruments become more prominent
[B]2.[/B] The break at 4:15 is a bit unexpected and when the insturments come back in it sounded a bit like a different song for a few seconds

4.5 stars.
[B]Good things:[/B]
1. Song has a great athmosphere.
2. I really like the sounds you are using.
3. The melody is relaxing but also builds up to something at the same time.
[B]Bad things (nitpicking):[/B]
1. The transition at 2:15 could be better. Adding an E note of the piano-ish synth which re-enters the song at that stage should improve it.
2. The ending at 2:45 could have an extra note. Another E perhaps.

[B]Good things:
1.[/B] Fast tempo, very energetic
[B]2.[/B] The synth sounds are great and fit the style perfectly
[B]3.[/B] Kickass melodies that keep the song interesting from beginning to end.
[B]Bad Things:[/B]
None really. Can't think of anything to nitpick.
