DarKsidE555's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[+Understood+]

Yeah...

Cool song dude BUT don't go to much into a style of a band you like. You could end up beeing nothing more than a hopeless clone. Just an advice.

Nice solid playing, some parts were in there that I didn't like (like that slower part) but thats a matter of taste I guess. Again, love the guitar tone, nice and druggy.

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE_555! You voted 5 for +Understood+, raising its score from 4.00 to 4.14.

xSeraph7 responds:

Yeah man I'm going to take your advice lol, I can tell im starting to sound like Haste The Day maybe a little too much, and I definitely don't want to be some kinda clone like you said. But anyways, I'm glad you dont like the slow part cause I dont either lol, I dont know why the hell I put it in there I just did, I'm never doing something like that again though. But yeah man thanks alot and thanks for the review and 5, Rock on.
Oh and btw, I use GuitarPort and Cool edit pro to record guitar(In response to your review for my AILD Cover).

[Corpse Terrorist in Rapeatory]

Not bad!

Some advices though. What are you using for the drums? Beatcraft I assume. It sounds like that. ^^ The drumbeat was nice, catchy with the guitar. Though, I only hear your guitars "ones". Lemme guess you recorded a guitar track but centered it? To me, it sounds like that.

For a more decent sound, record two tracks or copy the track you did and pan your guitars to left and right. Also your guitar tone...not a good tone for metal, more distortion man! :)

Overall, it's not a bad tune, needs some polish though. Oh yeah, if you really use beatcraft for the drums, could you send me the project file from your drum beat? I wanna play with it a bit if it is ok for you. ^^

I like the beat and you did well with the drums...sooo...4/5. ;)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE_666! You voted 4 for Corpse Terrorist in Rapeatory, raising its score from 3.60 to 3.67.

Casualty responds:

hahah I forgot to do that little pan trick. Usually I do it, but this time I just forgot. Thanks for saying it anyway.

And to send you the file per mail, I will PM you for your address and stuff.

Thanks for checking it out man!

btw check my new track it sucks donkey balls.

[A Mass of Traffic Up Ahead]

A bit...

like some music david firth uses for his animations. Interesting. I have to admit you could have lowered or soften the sound of the sharp synth a bit, it was hurting me ear. >: (

Also a bit more rythm guitar in the mix would have been nice. You catched a really sad/dreamy feeling with this one. Overall, a pleasent one to listen to. :)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE_666! You voted 5 for A Mass of Traffic Up Ahead, raising its score from 4.83 to 4.86.

pitbulljones responds:

thanks for your review man. That sharp synth is the bell innit? maybe i just have a limited hearing range i don't know, but it is a bit loud i agree.

again i agree with adding more rhytmn guitar, but it's sooooo hard to capture a good clean rhytmn unless i use my usb fx pedal, but i like to use amplitude more than that. a bit of lead wouldn't have gone a miss too either. but i no lead guitarist.

glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the 5. i'll be sure to visit your page soon. i promise.

pitters.

[Zelda: Windmill]

In one word...

GREAT! Nice and calm, wonderful cover man! One of many downloads for you!

Sound quality was superb, very good tone on the acoustic guitars. Overall, great going, really nothing to critic about. Be proud son! ;)

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE_666! You voted 5 for Zelda: Windmill, raising its score from 4.54 to 4.55.

Soundshifter responds:

hey man thanks for raising the vote. im glad you enjoyed.

[Tankmen Attack!]

Nice!

Good trancy beat you got going on. Great sound as well. Only thing I didn't like was the touch with the synth guitar...but overall good job man! Good luck for the contest. :)

Give it 5/5.

cornandbeans responds:

thanks! :D I was worried myself what the synth guitar would do, I was looking for more power in the song. It's pretty wimpy compared to a real guitar, which I should probably use more of. :P Thanks for the review!

[T7th Avenue (Tankmen theme)]

Damn! Oo

Nice for a chilled outro or menu music. Great sound, good vibes. I really like the feel of this one. Wtf about the score? 3.33? LoL.

Way up you go! :)

And good luck for the contest man!

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE_666! You voted 5 for T7th Avenue (Tankmen theme), raising its score from 3.33 to 3.75.

[Tankmen Destroyers of All]

Cool song!

Yeah...song...not really a theme. Kinda just submitted something, ey? ;)

What can I say about your playing? Nothing much really, it's superb and surpasses quite the rest here on NG. Also your thinking of song structurs. The diversity impresses me really.

How do you get the guitars so loud and clear anyways? Do you record them louder and lower them in the mix or how do you do it? (compression etc.)

Well, what more to say? Cool song - shitty theme. ;)

Keep it up man!

Metaljonus responds:

How can it not be a theme? Either way a theme is still a song none the less. I guess imma have to make a "real theme" and post another like you did eh?.

[Berserker]

NOEZ! Up yours!

Ok...this submission won't be at a good score for long I guess. Because? Well, like myself many other people in the HM area don't like synth guitars and keyboardish drums.

I have to admit, the structur of this tune was nice, if played "real" it would surely be a good one, but it's blank,flat and cpu like which steals a lot of feeling. I could listen to this for a long time if it was "real" you know.

None the less good work for the programming. Even the fact that it isn't my kind of "recording" I'll give it 4/5.

PaulyBFromDa303 responds:

Well, thanks for your honesty.

["LOPTrilogy Part 2- Main Menu"]

Rip off!!

I heard this one before you faker you! >:( You ripped it off from another song! ;)

Hehe, gotcha, ey? Cool little tune man, fits the flash very well! Btw. the drum samples you send are great! You'll hear them in the next days, cause I got my submission for the contest nearly finished! It will rock your socks! :D

Oh yeah, vote and leave! For 5 yo!

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Awesome, can't wait to hear it!. ALso I didn't "rip" it..haha. I was "inspired". SO thanks for the inspiration!!!and the 5!!!Good luck with the contest!\m/ROck On my sock loving friend\m/

[Roots bloody Roots/w drums]

D'oh!

You know I cover this baby with my band myself...and this one...ugh...Ok...let's get started shall we?

First off. The beat is way too fast! It needs to be slow and druggy. I can't bearly hear the drums and the guitars are too distorted.

Also, there were some fucked up's in your playing and recording. As for the solo, well, nobody can't cover that cause it's just fx stuff, so good job on that one.

Overall it was an ok try, but next time you should record and mix it better, cause you will get flammed if you fuck up a good song. ;)

Can't give you more than 2/5.

Thanks for your vote, DarKsidE_666! You voted 2 for Roots bloody Roots/w drums, lowering its score from 4.25 to 3.80.

blackmantis1 responds:
