i wrote this song in my studio last night, programmed the drums in fruity loops (the samples blow but i am going to replace them with sweet samples soon), the guitars were direct through some decent zoom pedal (oxymoron), bass direct through a tube preamp, and i did a rough mix in acid pro. the main reason why i made this was so i can hear how this riff is going to sound once it's constructed, performed and recorded. i wasn't feeling the main riff until i heard it with a thrashy drumbeat. don't critique the mix cus i know the guitars are scratchy, the drums are a little low, so they sound more real, and the bass is too loud in the mid range, but where should i go with this song? we are gonna record vocals tonight and i'm gonna use this is a scratch track for the drums. let me also know if u think the riff sucks! i'm open to anything! just dont tell me the playing is sloppy cus it was tracked in one shot at 3 am after drinking and smoking. its a simple pop arrangement, v/c/v/c/b/v but once i improve my recording/playing skills, thatll help me arrange these songs more creatively. THANKS for lending ur ears, my music loves ears and my ears love music! ;)

I like the riff a lot! I think it could use a nice outro solo kind of thing on the fade out though. That would be cool. Also, I'm not very fond of the bridge. It's a litte boring. Other then that nice work!
 
:yow: Just linstened to the other tracks. Sounds like a Super Nintendo virtual band. Crazy stuff.
Back on the topic, the riff doesn't suck, It's just very classic.

Hehehehe. SN virtual band.

That track zentos the flesh taker is pretty rad. =)
 
cool! i'm glad you guys are diggin my video game metal. i need to remix them and give the tracks more PUNCH! i can't wait to hit the studio and work on this new riff.. yea that breakdown part is very plain, im gonna put a simple lead over it that i already have in mind, and hopefully shred it up for the outro! :) i have more of my video game metal tracks up on myspace, it's cool to get feedback from people with real musical taste. im glad i didn't get BURNED by BURNY!:D
