HDG's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Abyss 901 pt.1 (Flame Mesial)]

cool, i liked it.

cool song. sound quality needs some work, but none the less, the song is pretty good. the drums sounded sort of subtle, and the beggining of the solo sounded kind of choppy, but it fit well with the song, which is important. anyway, cool track...

FlameMesial responds:

Thanks dood, with the sound I don't record straight into the computer I record on a cassette first which does something to the quality (if this is a problem in any way, you might not want to hear my earlier work). Changing the subject, I tried to get the 'space feel' like solar-system style music where it would fit in if you imagined the solar system while listening to the main riff (you'd be surprised). Thanks for the 9!

[Proceed To Fear]

alright

you've got good riffs and everything, but this particular track just needs some work. try using a drum machine if you can. you've got a decent tone (it kinda sounds like a BOSS DS-1), but there's a bit too much bass.

[Brutal Fucking Torture]

kickass

nice, but the intro kind of went on for a long time, and the drums seemed sort of all over the place, but the middle section with the double picking and swing beat drums majorly kicks ass!! and the outro is awesome too. so now all you need are some leads! i wish i could do one for you. that would be awesome. anyway, cool song and keep them coming.

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks mate, I know what you mean about the intro being too long, but the vocals I wrote start straight away and go with that part really well. Aint had time to record them yet though!
Also, I would fucking be honoured to have one of your solo's on on of my songs, so if you're ever interested my e-mail is in my profile somewhere!
Cheers for the review.

[-Remorse]

great tune

i like it. it's got an interesting time signature (12/8 maybe?), and has a distinct kind of mood to it. Remorse is a fitting title. and your guitar sounds nice. anyway, it's a great song....

Tancrisism responds:

Thanks man.

[Stone Fall]

yes, excellent!

Well, you reviewed some of my stuff, so i thought i'd come back to do some of yours

I love it. it flows perfectly, and there's a nice sort of transition between a major and a sort of minor tone. sounds real nice.

Thanks for your vote, HDG! You voted 5 for Stone Fall, raising its score from 4.00 to 4.14.

definitely awesome.

Tancrisism responds:

Hah. I love you.

[Pathways (GoreBastard) (_8n(')]

phenomenal!

wow, that's freakin excellent! i love it. kinda reminds me of Cemetery Gates, with the whole mood of the song and all. anyway, that was awesome. do more like this.

GoreBastard responds:

Cheers mate, glad you liked it... I did another kind of like this called Flowing Carpet, but this one is much better I think.
Oh, and I will definately make more slower quiet ones like this.

[Risen From the Fukin' Cemetary]

nicely done

although a lot of parts were painfully slow, it started to pick up around the middle, and had some really cool riffs and stuff. and for some reason, the audio sounded a little distorted. and this song is screaming for some vocals. lol. i'd do them for you if i could sing.... anyway, good job.

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks mate. The reason that this one sounds more distorted than usual is because I downtuned my guitar to make the intro part sound "evil as fuck".
I can do some pretty mean vocals, but I never get the chance to put them on my stuff... soon though, soon!!!

[Old School Metal 80s HairGore!]

awesome!

i loved it, man! that was so cool. i love the riffs and everything. excellent work. and the 0 voters can die.

GoreBastard responds:

Thanks mate, This is probably the only tune I've made without power chords dominating the whole track! I like it too, and yes, DIE ZERO VOTERS!!!
Thanks for the revieowuruw

[United we stand]

excellent.

sounds a whole lot like the Cannon In D, but it's still really awesome. you've got some serious skills. keep it up.

[Bond, James Bond... Metalized!]

kick ass

nicely done. i've always been a fan of 007 and the music. i love your version too, it's really cool. but the only critizism i have is that the ultra fast triplet bass drums sound really computerized (i know you're using a drum machine program though. i've used it before). but anyway, this audio kicks ass. keep them coming.
