Diarrhea Of Death

"Cool."

When the first part where you play on the GBE strings, it sounds like they aren't tuned right with the rest of the guitar. Otherwise this songs was excellent ^^.

"Nice feeling."

date: June 24, 2009

This gives me a really nice feeling of Scar Symmetry, a melodic death metal band (check them out if you don't know who they are) that mostly make songs concerning the death of mankind and 2012 and alot of other things.

Vocals:

You should push more with your diaphragm to get a more RAAAH! sound, or make the vocals more vivid in the song. The lyrics are absolutely magnificent, the timing and everything, the words, they fit in. It's like magic almost. Less effects though on the vocals, you have some effect making the vocals sound.... I don't know really how to explain it, but it's like "round", it's not harsh as usual growling is, but it's more like it's coming from the sides of the back of the throat. Try removing it, or if it's a part that you do naturally, try avoiding it.

The problem is that, that exact effect gets boring quickly, you can always try alternating in pitches as some kind of clean singing also.

If you want even more awesome sound, try improvising with clean vocals in let's say chorus or something, it sounds purely awesome.

Drums:

Sick double bass drums, but add more bass to them to make them feel like they would tear the ground apart. The Kaleidoscopic God by Scar Symmetry is perfect inspiration for those kind of drums. The pace is good and balanced throughout the song.

Guitar:

Epic melodic death metal feel, I gotta say, I haven't heard anything like this in a while (maybe because I mainly listen to more BR007AL sound now, but it's still good) the scales on the guitar matched and were very good, they fit in together with the drums, the vocals and everything really, solos are awesome. Although they are a bit slowpaced though except the tremolo parts.

Keep up the seriously good work. Hope this review was of help to you and your band :D.

Scar Symmetry are bad ass I just got into them. As for clean vocals I am not a clean singer at all so that is out of the picture haha. When I do my lows I usually use my gut since it give me more room to push and get that gutteral touch I suppose. My highs I think I use my diaphram I don't know I never really pay attention. I used a flanger on the vocals since it just sounded too bland for my taste I love vocals that have cool effects that add to the song rather than dry and boring imo. I only do vocals on shit that seems necessary since I am strictly a guitarist. The song itself is'nt my song so I can't really say anything about that. I just added my vocals to it. Check out my other shit if you like guy. Thanks for the tips and what not.

"Awesome"

date: June 24, 2009

This made me think of folk metal, like Finntroll or Moonsorrow in the beginning, and that is a huge plus, you got talent. Don't waste it, make use of it and become something in the world of music.

This is a great growling guide, if you want to learn how to do it properly without hurting yourself.

You should try to make more of a rhytm in your growls like George Fisher from Cannibal Corpse, he has great rhytm in his growls.

Try the guide out and see what it can do for you, it helped me alot in becoming a good growler.

"Don't want to be harsh..."

date: June 18, 2009

I don't want to be harsh since I only do constructive criticism.... But you need to learn to growl and this is only for your succession. This guide: http://www.wikihow.com/Do-Harsh-Death -Metal-Vocals

This is the single and best guide to learn how to growl properly. You sound like you don't use the false chords, but more whisper like the undead in World of Warcraft. Please read the guide and develop your vocals, it can only get better.

"FUCKING METAL!"

date: June 18, 2009

Seriously, up to date this has been the most BR007AL work i've seen on newgrounds. Damn dude, your low pitched vocals sounds like a mix between George Corpsegrinder and Brendon Small (Dethklok), and it's totally awesome.

Im so flattered :)

You should hear me now though, after doing it for 2 years now, i've pretty much perfected my gutterals and growls. I actually had just started doing vocals when we recorded this. Unfortunately I can't find a band to contribute to :(

"Great :D."

date: June 18, 2009

I suggest you learn to growl from this guide (http://www.wikihow.com/Do-Harsh-Deat h-Metal-Vocals) since it's really good to do with this. I bet you hurt your vocal chords or throat alot when you growl high or low pitched.

Watch it with the growling, and only use the false chords when you growl, otherwise you will damage your vocal chords, and it can be permanently. The false chords is the only part inside the body that can regenerate completely, and you'll never be hurt when using them as the central part of your growling.

Drums are superb, but more double bass drums :P.

Guitar is great, but too squeaky in my opinion.

Keep on with the vocal practise though, you don't get that "raspy" sound yet like George Fisher and alot of other growlers. Keep practising and you won't hurt your vocal chords and use that guide alot.

im sorry but reading a guide on the internet does not make you an awesome death metal vocalist . . let alone knowledgeable to be giving advice over newgrounds . .

i didnt do the vocals on the track i just produced the tracks . .

and if you want to learn how to growl properly . . learn correct singing technique on how to move air through your diaphragm . .

"Dark, absolutely metal!"

date: June 18, 2009

Damn dude, this is awesome. Really, get some speed growled lyrics (Cannibal Corpse style) out there to add to the awesomeness of this song. Seriously dude, and I love the horse paced chords in the end, those are awesome. The drums are *orgasm*, keep it up :D.

Absolutely beautiful double bass drums. Would love to have seen some death metal growls or some harsh grunts throughout it. Also add more bass to the double bass drums to get more of a violent feeling for it :D. This is totally awesome work man, keep it up :D.
