Haggard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Electro Blues - Wayl0n]

\m/

The melody you played on the guitar sure sounds like blues, heh. But I think the quality of the sound isn't that great. The drums sound all right, but the guitar sounds very much overamplified... turn down on that distortion a bit to get a cleaner sound.

The loop doesn't work that well, you can hear a gap between the end end the start, you should try to fix that.

Overall, it's not a bad submission, just a little too short. But I think that you have the talent to create some very good songs.

This is indeed a very nice song and perfectly fine without any rap overs... I somehow can't even imagine how anyone could rap to this.

I think this could be used in a wide range of games, not just like FPS, but also Horror Survival (this song has somehow a creepy feeling to it) or even a puzzle game.

The beats are very nice and I like the melodies you used in the song very much. Some of them have a very "80's" like sound and remind me of some song from Kraftwerk or a similar band...

[(_RGH_) Climate Loop(Remix)]

\m/

I have no idea from which of your songs this loop is from as this is just the second submission from you that I listened to :P .

However, the beats and effects in here are very nice and even though it's just 30 seconds long you managed to add a lot of different sounds to it, thus making the loop very diversified.
When the 30 seconds are over I always think that the song lasted much longer than just a few seconds, heh.
Good job!

You can always liten to more

[(_RGH_) Soul Drain (Robotrip)]

\m/

It's a nice beat with a nice main beat.

I think it could be best used in a puzzle game, because this feel quite relaxing. But the problem with this loop is that it is rather short so that little to no variations are "provided" in the song.

Maybe you can make this a bit longer and add some more parts to it.

Yay review request club!!

I could extend this fairly easily

[Rig FX - Buttons & powerups]

\m/

It's a nice idea to create some sound effects for flash artists.

I think it would have been better if the gap betweemn the sounds would have been a bit bigger. That way it would be easier for arists to extract the sound they wish to use.

Also a bigger variation of sounds would have been nice, too. But this is a good start! :)

[Wherever I may roam]

\m/

It's a nice cover, but the voice doesn't sound right... you should try to sing it in a slightly deeper tone.

Also, the sound quality is way too dull. It sounds as if the mic was covered with serveral blankets...

[Prophetica]

\m/

Now THAT'S what I call "kick ass"!

Heavy riffs, great drumming and a good structure combined in this song, great!

Only thing where you can improve a bit is the mixing. The hi-hat sounds way too loud and overpowers even the heavy guitars when it is played.

[Pretend]

Great song, even though the singer seems kind of misplaced there. He has a good voice, but it doesn't go along that well with the music.

The structure of the song is good, there were sure some guys at work that know a lot about songwriting (well, more than I do anyways ^^).

The instruments were played very well and the mixing was done good, too. Too bad the sound quality is a bit low.

[Vilify - victims]

\m/

In the beginning it sounded a bit like SOAD, heh. But it got more unique once the double base set in.

The song is really great and I am amazed by the great guitars here. Also the varity of this song is quite outstanding. Many riffs and many breaks in here. Doesn't get boring even after 5 minutes :) .

The quality of the sound is great, except for the a bit weak sounding drums. But I think getting a good drum sound is the hardest thing to do when recording a song.

thanks a ton for the fucking awesome review!!!! stay metal bro \m/

[Mr.Crowly]

It's a great song and it's great played, too. Too bad that the sound is a bit dull, so that it sounds as if it was recorded in a can or something...
