Haggard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Terrified]

\m/

Wow, this is a good one. Starts of pretty funky with that guitar and then changes into some terrifying and horrifying sound... I really like the seamless changeover from that "funky" riff to the "terrifying" part.

This seems perfect to be used in some kind of nightmare sequence.

Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks for the review! Glad ya liked it!

[Sunny Days]

\m/

Sounds good and has a certain "summer feeling" in it. I can imagine listening to this while relaxing at the beach :D .

But it needs a bit more. Maybe a nice drum track and more brass instruments in it. Then you'll definetly have a nice reaggae-"summer time"-song ;) .

Cyberdevil responds:

Glad you liked it! Thanks for the review.

[METICAL - Retribution]

\m/

This sounds nice. It has a very "industrial" feeling to it, so I can imagine hearing that in a "robocop"-type flash.

The guitars are played very good and the sound is very nice, too. I'd like to hear this with that "badass drumtrack" you mentioned in your comments.

jrayteam6 responds:

Thanks dude, check out Hating4AM's profile and look for his track "Superficial" for the seriously intense version of this.

[Lashmush - Ocean]

\m/

Arrr, ye made a good pirrrate song herrre!

The song really creates a "pirate"-atmosphere, great! The riffs you used are very good and also the drums fit good into this song.
I like the many breaks you had in this song, this added a lot of diversity to the song and kept it from getting boring.

Lashmush responds:

This is the new version of an old track you can find on my "Reanimation" disk, currently up at my website. So I had a fairly good basis to work with. Though I cut out the synthsolo-ish part from this version as I didn't really think it would fit the soundpattern of this one.

This one became pretty popular both here on NG and with friends and family. Thanks alot for all the positive feedback. ;D

[Mighty Tankmen]

\m/

These sure are some heavy and kickass riffs, great!

The drums are good, too. The mixing of the instruments is done very good, all instruments just go along great with each other. Good job!

speedmetalmessiah responds:

Thanks man, this one fell into place pretty easily. It's one of the few tunes I have that actually sounds like a song, haha.

[Euphorical Misanthropia]

\m/

Great song. The vocals are done great, even though they are too much in the foreground for my taste. The guitars and the drums are somewhat outpowered by the volume of the vocals, so that sometimes they can hardly be heared.

Just turn up the volume of the music and you should be fine ;) .

TheRealSam responds:

Ok I'll try that! Thanks for the review :)

[F-Zero GX Mute City Metalized]

\m/

Oh yeah, I remember that song from F-Zero :D. You've done a good job playing it, the drums really fit into this song.

Unfortuneatly the sound lacks some quality. The guitars sound pretty dull (not as nice and clean as the drums) and especially at the beginning the song is overamplyfied. It get's better during the song, but the beginning nearly ruined this song :/ .

Sonofkirk responds:

You again ?! yeah the quality sucks ... nothing esle to say.
thanks !

[Mega Man 3 - Wily Stage 2]

\m/

I don't know the original song, so I don't know if this version is close to the original or not. But it sounds really great. The track is nicely played and even the sound quality is a big plus here. Sounds as if this was mixed in a high end studio :D .

However, the ending sounds a bit too aprupt for me, maybe a fading out would have been better there.

DarKsidE555 responds:

LoL...High end. XD

naa, just my shitty homerecording, not more not less. But cool that some people think it kicks ass. Right with the end...though, fade-out is something sooo overdone with a lot of tunes, it's kind of boring. I guess it's a matter of taste if you like it or not. ;)

[The Longing Inside]

\m/

I really like the intro, it sounds very melancholic AND happy at the same time. Strange.

Sometimes I had the feeling that the drums and the guitars wheren't in time with each other, but maybe it was just my PC (or my ears) messing things up.
In any case, when the electric guitar plays the solo the timing is all right.

The outro is nice too, with the acoustic guitar playing something other than just the main riff.

BazookaZombie responds:

yeah, there's a good chance the timing is slightly off with the drums. reason being is i don't have any 3/4 time drum patterns. (SUCKS). so i had to record the whole the whole thing blindly without drums. then send the file over to a friend who played the drums with a keyboard/midi station.

[Thunderlord]

\m/

This sounds great! Perfectly made for headbanging! :D

But I'd like to hear this one in a complete song with vocals and stuff. Add some kick ass vocals to this and this has the potential to become a new "Metal Hymn"!

Chrizzly responds:

Yea, thanks!
Yeah, maybe it'd be good for a full song...
