Haggard's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dependancy]

\m/

This sounds just great! The recording quality is awesome, the instruments all sound (nearly) perfect, the riffs are great and especially the beat is very cool. Pretty much "straight forward" and very awesome ^^.

[Donkey Kong Last Battle]

\m/

It sounds great! The guitars are played very accurate and the sound quality is all right.
But you definetly need a drummer! It's only half the fun without drums :/

[FromBeyondTheDimensionOfTime]

\m/

Nice song with great melodies and good riffs. The quality of the recording is very nice, even though I think a bit more distortion for the guitars would have sounded better. Also, the drums are too much in the front (as in: a tad bit too loud).
But despite the little flaws, the song itself is so awesome that you leave me no choice but to vote 10/10 on this!

[Twisted fate!]

\m/

Starts off pretty nice and gets even better after those calm 20 seconds! Very great riffs and good drums.
The instruments go along very well; nothing is overamplified, no instrument is too quiet...
The quality of the sound itself is great, too.

Thanks man...damn...you reviewed quite a lot from me in the last time. Thanks a bunch for that. :)

Also cocks and beers! ;D

[Twisted fate - Preview!]

\m/

Nice intro. I like that drum beat. The rest of the song is very powerful and has a very driving beat.
The sound quality is perfect, no instruments are too quite or overamplified.

DarKsidE555 responds:

Rock on buddy! \m/

[Surrounded By Darkness]

\m/

Starts of very slow and a bit boring, I have to say.
But after about 2 minutes into the song, it finally 'really' starts. With guitars, drums, etc.
I think it sounds very good, I like the melody and the rhythm. The drums sound very nice, especially the "double base"-parts. The guitars sound very good as well, but I think they are a bit too quite. They seem to get lost among all the other instruments (especially the drums).

TheRealSam responds:

Yeah you're right I noticed that too.
For the intro, I think that with a better vst and more variations, it could be great.
Thanks a lot for the review :)

[First Attempt At Rock]

\m/

The song starts of pretty slow with those synths. When the beat kicks in, it sounds more like Trip-Hop (Portishead or Massive Attack, or something like that). When finally the guitar kicks in, it starts to get more "rock". But it just takes too long for my taste until the guitar begins to play.
Also, it's still more like Trip-Hop than Rock, even when the guitar is playing.
Anyway, it's a nice song, so 7/10.

[Receipt for Murder]

\m/

Great rhythm, great drums, great guitars. Even though I have to admit that I don't like CC, I really like this one. Very powerful and with a great diversity (those time changes are great!).

[Time For Punishment]

\m/

Heh, the intro is very cool. I like that "question-and-answer"-game with the rhythm and the lead guitar.
The rest of the song is good, too. It's pretty much "straight forward" with a good rhythm and great energy.

TheRealSam responds:

Yeah as I said it was made for a Postal² mod, so it had to be poweful :p
Thanks a lot for the review :)

[Braveheart Theme Redone!]

\m/

It's played very accurate and very emotional. The clean guitar is just right in this song, as it just wouldn't sound good with too much distortion. Good work!
