Why not? I just signed up there, and one must review other songs to get their own reviewed, so I figure I can post the good ones here.. there's some surprisingly good stuff.. I believe anyone can listen, you don't need an account.. I'm going to link to the song itself, check out the rest of the band if you like, I prolly haven't.. oh and if you want to post good songs or bands from GarageBand.com then please do in this thread!

..I guess most of these will be unknown bands, hence the point of this thread, but maybe some will already be known.. I saw Woods of Ypres on there for instance.. but I'll only post those I've never heard of..

Cwn Annwn - The Djinn
like Orphaned Land but a little more evil and epic

The Enemy - Pumpkin Patch
hmm like rock's groovyness added to metal's aggressiveness
http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaSiaFexZGE

Mark Hawkins - Lost in Creation
thrashy blackened melodic death
http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaSjZFK0YWo

Caveat - Red
like Ratos de Porao in English and a little less punk

FiveDollarKillbotWhore - Traveller of Fortune
prog thrash
http://www.garageband.com/song?|pe1|S8LTM0LdsaSiaFW_a2o

Dead but Dreaming - Stitch
sort of like Fear Factory

Scargod - Love is Suicide
black metal similar to Ulver's Bergtatt era, more mainstream

Well there's more but I can't find them... I have to review 30 freakin songs for every one of my own I submit (then it gets 30 reviews).. so if my naturally open mind is being conditioned to mainstream shite, lay it on me I can take it lol.. but some people on here like Killswitch Engage and stuff.. and some of the above is pretty underground.. so check it out!
 
The first one sounds nothing like Orphaned Land. Not bad, though...nothing really special.
I like the third one...pretty cool.
 
My band Phantom Blade is using Garage Band.
Real guitars and real vocals, but my bassist and drummer don't have their respective instruments yet, so they will use the instruments in the app, which I consider cheating, but we need the instruments.
