Metallica1136 responds:

Awesome man, I'm glad you liked it! Yeah, That's my favorite part too. Feels very Slayer.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Hey motherfucka!!! Wassssssuuuup!! PLEASE puke up some vox...but lemme clean it up...it s just raaaaw...unless you like it that way!!
Cheers brother!

[To Smoke is To Ascend]

ah, there you are. i thought you'd be lurking around here somewhere. sick song man, everything sounds excellent. really liking the drums, they're just perfect in the mix. cool ass leads, as i've come to expect. awesome tone, that effect you're using sounds pretty damn cool as well haha.
a real fucking treat. i enjoy, and i approve. here, have some stars bitch

Metaljonus responds:

Thanks man! Yeah I like to lurk around on NG :) It's what I do best!

[Everything in Sight]

nice song man. your mixing keeps getting better. the compression is still a bit iffy, but not nearly as over-compressed as your your earlier stuff. good playing, and some really nice leads. the solo around 5:30 is really kickass.

overall, a really solid song. perhaps a little longer than it needed to be, but you keep a lot of variation, without straying to far from the core. good job, i enjoyed \m/

Metallica1136 responds:

Awesome man, glad you agree about the mixing. Yeah, I've noticed it's still a little compressed, but it's not compressed to death like my earlier stuff. Glad you like the solo too, one of my best solos! :D

Yeah, I wish I could get out the habit of writing such damned long songs :/ But thanks man, glad you liked it! \m/

[Ace of Spades]

sweet cover, digging the bass. one day, i shall record something for this, for it is my inner lemmy's duty. haha. and for phillip below - this is called a cover, which is a personal interpretation of a song and a respectful tribute to the original artist.

Metallica1136 responds:

Yeah man, one does not simply play Ace of Spades on bass without using the awesome distortion. :D

Haha, yes sir. Your inner Lemmy hasn't been used in years, it's about time to wake him up again, and use him! Thanks for explaining to Phillip by the way.

And thanks for your review! \m/ Scheif Kilmister!

[Follow The Demon]

kewlness. i'd work a bit more on the compression, but it's still a lot better than your earlier stuff. some nice riffage in this one. i'd like some smoother transitions at a couple of places though, feels like the guitar just cuts in a bit awkwardly, which also makes it feel more like a bunch of random riffs, rather than a structured song. a bunch of hella cool riffs though!
some issues with mixing, but no complaints from me otherwise. kickass riffage, i enjoyed.

Metallica1136 responds:

Awesome man, I'm glad you liked it. Yeah, compression is my weakest point in music in general. Fucking shit is always either overcompressed, or undercompressed. I hate mastering. Yeah, I know what you mean. It's not as structured as it could be, especially in the second half. Glad you liked the song, thanks! Seriously, how the fuck do you and Demon-Slayer12 mix your shit?! I've got just as much musical skill, but mixing is my weakest point :/
