The intro is really nice, it's very powerfull. The slower parts are good as well, but a lot of the energy from the intro is somehow lost. But I like how you managed the changeovers from 'fast' to 'slow' and back.
It's a good song, but it would be even better with some kick-ass vocals!

TheRealSam responds:

Thanks man :)
I've put vocals on this song but I don't think I'm gonna put it on NG.

Hm, I don't know wether I like this or not.
On the one hand it sounds annoying and there doesn't happen that much in this piece. On the other hand it sounds "psychadelic" and I can imagine this in a flash with a very strange and terrifying main theme.

When i made this i didn't know what it would really be about. I just made it.

Very nice intro and good playing. But I think some of the guitar effects you used are a bit misplaced, it would have been better if you just played with normal distortion. It sounds a bit overdone as it is now.
I still like the rhythm of this, though.

I like the main riff of that song, it rocks! Reminds me a bit of early "Ramones"-songs, heh.
The sound quality is a bit low, so that all sounds a bit "sludgy".
I think that the first solo doesn't fit into this song, whereas the second solo is quite fitting.
Overall it is a nice rock song that shows that you have great talent.

TheRealSam responds:

Wow thank you a lot! :)
Well, this song was made when I was begining to compose my own solos (or soli, I don't know). That is why they sound weird, or not in the right tone.
But anyway, thanks a lot, I'll keep workin on this :)

I like this one a lot. It's quite original, I like how you used that harmonica in the song, it adds a lot of varety to your song and makes it very easy to distinguish from other songs.
I also liked the more "heavy" parts of this. Good work!

I like the riffs, they are pretty catchy and the rhythm is good, too. But overall the sound quality is too thin. The drums are too quiet, so that one can hardly hear them - and unfortuneatly the sound of the guitar is very bland, too.
Also, the song gets quite boring towards the end, but that's the problem with nearly all instrumentals. There are very few instrumentals out there that keeps the listener interested the whole time.
As a final remark it can be said that you've done quite a good job here, but you have to improve your sound quality a whole bit.

So, now I've listened to both versions (with and without vocals) I have to say that I like this version better. The vocals sure add more diversity to the song, so that it doesn't get boring halfway through.
And I also have to say: You sound a bit like Hetfield in this song.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thanks man. I kinda agree. The song is kinda boring without. ON the flip side, the recording of the instruments and vocals were with very old and not the greatest equipment. I would love for Pitchblak to revisit this with better drums, tone...and maybe some bass. I have learned MUCH since this song (also took some actual lessons). With regards to singing, mixing, compression, etc etc. I think this would seriously fucking rule, revisited. For sure.

The Hetfieldish vocals were me resorting to my Metallica Cover Band days...Sooooo many moons ago. Anyways Thanks for another wicked review and support!

Good guitars and nice drums, but it gets boring very fast. It just happens too little in the song, there's nearly no diversity. Vocals would help a lot here, I think.

pitchblak responds:

Yeah, thanx for the advice. It was my first attempt @ recording. Badman does have a version with vocals though. You should check it out Thanx 4 the review

You've done a good job here. The lead guitar is played very good. And I think the drums are played good as well.
I don't remember that song from "Nightmare Before Christmas" (although I've seen it some time ago...), but I think your cover is pretty accurate :) .
