[This is Christmas]

Sweet!

Well...you already know what I'm thinking about. Great going here on the "classical" side as well as in your other piece. Gentle vocals from Bad_Man. Going well with the track. Only think to bug a little about is your guitar tone...I'm not sure but maybe a more "crunchy" tone would have done the job better. Just my opinion. Overall kick ass job mate.

Yeah I was going to record the solo over again but I just couldn't find a setting I liked so I just stuck with this one. Thanks for the review man.

[-Orr- Christmas Eve]

Wow...just wow!

I mean thats what I call imagination. The description...the song. A perfect match. Christmas like? Thats for sure. The feeling is perfect. It's so gentle, warm, fuzzy. This is really one of the best...or better to say the best entry I've heard so far.

I'm lost for words. Sry for not beeing constructive this time but this is just to good!

DavidOrr responds:

I really tried to make this one special. I'm glad it appealed to you. Although I'm always looking for ways to improve, getting a review like this once in a while is rewarding in itself.

Thanks!

[666th Nation Army]

D'oh!

Why do I have the feeling that the guitar is out of tune? Hmm...: /

I hope you check the tone of your guitar everytime you start recording. Funny tune but there are some problems man. Mainly the mixing. The hole track is very "raw" on the production side. I assume you haven't mixed at all have you?

If I were you I would take me some time and search for some sites that have tips for mastering a track. Mainly some basics. That should ensure that your tracks will sound better with just a little of effort. The rest comes with experience.

Well, keep at it! \m/

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 3 for 666th Nation Army, lowering its score from 3.67 to 3.50.

Casualty responds:

Thanks for the tips dude! And yeah I realized the low E string was a bit too low when I recorded it =P

But hey thanks for the review dude!

[Hatebreed - Live for This]

Why hello there!

Another Hatebreed cover around here, ey? :D
Cool shit man, you're right with the fucked up parts yeah but w/e. There's more shitty stuff around here than this. Drums are a tad to loud in the mix but other then that it's shit. Nice one.

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 5 for Hatebreed - Live for This, raising its score from 3.33 to 3.75.

[Christmas Time - Presents!]

Gentle!

A swell made christmas spirit track. Well, not very original because of the more typical bell playing but still gives the chillz. I noticed that the hi-hat/cymbal? is a tad to loud in the mix. Nothing really serious but it's bugs me a little.

Overall a well made track. Good luck for you in the contest! I will be there too. ;)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 5 for Christmas Time - Presents!, raising its score from 4.17 to 4.29.

[_-{A Warm Wind in Avalon}]

Sweet biscuits!

Catchy from the beginning. The sound of the floating creek makes it all so peaceful and harmonized. I have to admit that the choir wasn't it for me. The would also be good without it.

Don't know if the tambourine fitted quite well in that two places. Maybe a bell would be better there? I don't know, just my thoughts.

What more to say? Impressive work as usual. Oh yeah, would you mind beeing a nice MaestroEmo and hit me back sometime? ;)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 5 for _-{A Warm Wind in Avalon}=-_, raising its score from 3.57 to 3.75.

MaestroRage responds:

First off, Emo people don't hit people back, they are usually too busy hitting their own veins with metallic sharp objects.

Secondly, will do :D!

Thank you for the review DarKsidE, glad you liked it ^^.

[Skull Castle Festivities]

Very nice!

Let's all imagen that the Robot-Masters are building a snowman. Then, Mega Man comes and blast it away. XD Muahaha.

Jolly good job on the track. It's has the good old heroic feel, spiced with christmas attitude. I dug it! Best of luck for you in the contest. :)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 5 for Skull Castle Festivities, raising its score from 3.50 to 3.71.

Grumbleduke responds:

Take that, Robot-Masters! Ph33r my unchargeable mega buster! I feel I did pretty well on this track; I hope it goes far too. I know it can't win, but it's the taking part that counts for me.

[SAW]

Hello?

Why didn't I reviewed this sooner? Must have been hidden somewhere. You bastard! :)

Anyways, cool track man. Nice beginning with the samples. The guitar tone is a bit weak or maybe the drums are a tad to loud in the mix. Doesn't mean it's bad, it's just an observation.

Keep it up! \m/

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE555! You voted 5 for SAW, raising its score from 4.28 to 4.31.

pitchblak responds:

Yeah man,on my computer speakers,my guitar and drums sounded like they were mixed evenly,but after i uploaded it and deleted my mixdown,i played it on my surround sound and noticed that the drums are a little to loud.It was to late to go back and correct.Now before i upload anything i try to listen to it on different speakers to prevent that problem.Anyways,thanx alot 4 the vote and review.My 1st gold track!Hell yeah!
