Piano Damnation

[Tubbs]

I'll add to this, even though it has been posted before. The songs are definitely similar to Damnation itself, but It's just too simple for my taste.

The thread's actually been bumped again, so I may as well close this one.

Hi =),
Im the guy who recorded Piano Damnation & A Tribute to Pain of Salvation, both piano-cover-albums (if anyone remembers).
However, the last track on Piano Damnation was called To Rid the Disease, and it was recorded with full band instrumentation. Lennart Böske recorded the guitars and bass, i made the rest. In the end, it wasnt the best recording, mainly because we didnt use clicktracks and had no proper planning, but we decieded to do such a cover again.
So we made a list with songs to cover, there are 3 opeth song in this list!

This time the recording went on much better, sure there were many problems, like im not a drummer and cannot play drums that well, and that we did not/could not use multiple track recording for the drums (but 4 mics this time, instead of 1 vocal mic, like the last time). Lennart had problems with recording, too, and because of time pressure there are some failures on the recordings (hitting the wrong note and things like that)

We are working on the recording, but we decieded to publish To Rid the Disease, as preview.

Constructive criticism would be nice!

PS: We didnt think of a good name for the album, so if someone has a good idea, tell us!

i'd love to see you do other opeth songs, even try and tackle the heavier ones. To rid the disease sounded good, always nice to see how guitar lines sound when played on piano

 

[Anarkissed]

About to listen to the track. Loved Piano Damnation! Can't wait to hear the others

 

[vampyré]

The guitar playing/sounds is/are atrocious.
Otherwise it's ok, I guess.

Hi! Could you tell me what is atrocious as to the sound? Is it too sharp? (As for the playing we cant improve anything - were doing our best ), but as to the sound i could improve some parts!

 

[Vegetaman]

I heard your version of "ending credits"... It was pretty awesome.

 

[Hlfreak]

Nicely done.

 

[AI]

I don't care if there are some minor slip ups, Piano Damnation is brilliant. I would really like to hear some more Opeth covers like that (songs from earlier albums would be nice ). I'm glad that you've included Riverside. Acronym Love is an interesting choice, I wonder if you would manage to cover some of their longer songs (‘Dance with the shadow’ maybe?) . Anyway, keep up the good work

 

[CAIRATH]

Piano Damnation was really nice. I still listen to it quite often.

 

[FuneralPortrait]

Nice work! Though it would have been nice to hear more of a melody in the verses.... got a little repetitive IMO. And that change between clean guitar and distortion was horrible.... Overall well done though. Looking foward to the rest, great tracklist.

 

[FRUGiHOYi]

TRTD preview sounds awesome. I love Piano Damnation as well. Looking forward to this.

Edit: I don't like the guitar too much on this
Edit 2: I DO like the tone of the distorted guitar when it is playing rhythm near the end of the song. It sounds really, really good. If you could tell me what you used for that...

Saw that about three years ago. Guess it could use a bump.

Didn't realize it was so old.
