This has a very epic sound, like one would use to add to some "medieval"-film, maybe even as the main theme, as it is very quiet and it is adapted for being played in the background, while the heroes of said film are joining at the beginning, or riding to their "final battle".
I like how you used the instruments in this one. Everything is mixed very well and there's no instrument that overpowers any other instrument in this.

I think you've done a great job here. The single instruments are going quite well together and you created a very nice and catchy tune here.
Also, this song is very diversified. At one point it reminds me of Dire Straits ("Money for nothing", as Coop has already said), and then it reminds me of the early 80's pop (which is a good AND a bad thing, both at the same time ^^).

Anyway, I like this song and I can imagine listening to that while playing some sort of racing game.

Mataro responds:

I'm still not sure how this sounds much like Dire Straits.. I mean.. Maybe very mildly.. But that's a stretch xD

Oh well, to each their own, right? I'm glad to hear you liked it. I can't say I've listened to much pop, so I wouldn't really know about the 80's bit >.>

As for fitting a racing game..? Yeah, I could see that. Though I've been told people think of a fighting game, primarily. Could go either way I guess.. Thanks for coming by, and I'm sorry it took so long for me to reply!

Hey, this reminded me a bit of "(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth" by Metallica.
The sound quality is quite similar to this recording, and even the distortion sounds a bit like the aforementioned song ^^.
I think you played a great track here, even though I think that it would sound better if you'd turn the distortion down a bit. Right now it sounds pretty "squishy" (don't know if this is the right expression. What I mean is: it doesn't sound very clear).

mhb responds:

i understand what you're sayin' with the distortion bein' way too much.

isn't anesthesia a bass solo though? i guess it doesn't make a diference when you have a staticy recording huh? but, slayer is proof that you can have the shittiest quality of recording and still sell albums.

but yeah the gain was by far way too amped for this.

Great loop! It's done technically perfect and the acutaly music is great, too ^^.
Good guitars and very good drums. Keep it up!

Great track! Just everything fits very well together here. Riffs, drums, sound in general, just everything.
I'd like to hear this one with vocals ^^.

It's a good riff (and it sure IS heavy), but there's something missing... It just sounds a bit too generic for me. But I like the effects you used towards the end. It adds a lot of diversity, even though this one is so short.

I know what you mean...ah well, can't always be "mindblowing" can it? ;P

Anyways, thanks for checking man!

Very powerful riff. I really like it, although it nearly blew my boxes away... :P

Especially the lead guitar is played very good and it is kept somewhat in the background in a nice and fitting way. Good job!

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thanks man, sorry about the overpowering bass. I can't even listen to this on my 5.1 . Old equipment here and not experienced at eqing and all that jazz back then. haha. Anyways, of older songs, its one of my favorites. Glad you like it, Thanks for another review!

This is good proof that the best metal is produced is Scandinavia (and Germany of course :P ). Great track!

Metalcan responds:

Hehe, at least when it comes to black metal. :) Thank you!

Indeed, very mellow, calm and sad. Good job. It's played very accurate and very soulful. I like that.

Great song. I think it's arranged very well and I realy like who you are slowly "fading" from the clean and soft guitar to the distorted part. The changeover between those two parts is done very good.
I also like the melody you used in this song. It's very intense and somehow a bit sad.
