["The Last Ship"]

beautiful and inspiring

I hope to one day write and record music like this. Thank you for sharing it with the world

BrokenDeck responds:

You're welcome! :D

[Sanity Not Included]

You made me create an account

1, 2 Physio floor punches! But the solo should have been faster, and at times there was bad tone, but still a ten man, good job you guys.

[Tale of Daedalus]

3oh!3? There is talent and structure in this song!

BTW 9/10 for dissing your own guitar player man. Physio flip him off lol

SITEbassist responds:

Thanks man. I am glad you appreciated that.
We all pick on each other (not to mention I was a tad bit tipsy).
What is the fun of being serious. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

In all seriousness, I am glad you don't think we sound like 30h!3.
Plus, once we get a couple of our other songs done, it will show just how diverse we be.

[Lube Nazi (demo)]

EYA MAN!

sounds like an average day at my house

l0vemetal responds:

you and me both bro

[Vampire's Lament *C-Star*]

I downloaded...

Perfect, the instruments seemed to shadow into each other at times. You have given me some things to think about for my own pieces. One problem though, at 1:37 it sounds like your hitting two keys right beside each other, I'm not sure, but it may be harmony, but to an average listener, it will definitely sound like a clunker. I recommend playing each song before speakers loudly and quietly, and then plug in headphones and listen to each pan. That is what I do before finalizing any of my music, and you will definitely catch any notes that sounds out of place. But alas, 10/10 my friend

CreamingStar responds:

Thanks for the extensive review! Those dissonant notes at 1:37 are part of a dissonance, resolution pattern. I'll admit they are a little, sloppy since they're so exposed like that. I have taken your advice to listen the the songs in different ways(headphones, loud, soft) though. Still, I would hope that people would enjoy music with nice head phones or speakers, so that I don't have to worry about writing for the people listening on laptop speakers haha!

['10 The Launch: News Broadcast]

Inspired me

I really like the flow and the feel of this track, worth a couple replays, but I do think that a choir would have brought a lot more character and feel to the music. I did find the music much more soothing if I closed my eyes and imagined the world drawing it's last breath. Here is a poem (soon to be a song) I wrote because of this song.

Families gathered in their homes, awaiting their fate
A man crying in the street, dirt on his face
Ashes fly, dust and cloud
The world's cries silent, the people's loud
All god's needed, an earth at pray
All men brothers, family in the wake
Rich or poor, every breath is drawn long
A world now united, soon to be gone
In a blink of an eye, there was a heavenly white flash
And then hell appeared, a planet turned to black
Not one left alive, no man woman or child
The world had ended, Ragnarok had transpired
And if the bombs hadn't dropped, what would have ensued?
The world would not have ended, because of me and all of you
None of us are innocent, but we're all in denial
We ended the world, or at least we soon will
