survulus Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Hmm, I'm not a massive Aerosmith fan, but that one is catchy, and reminds me of the nineties, which was an enjoyable decade being my first. I'll give it an 8/10. Now for me, for bands nobody has even heard of, haha.

Vito Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I don't know why but I was expecting some sort of shouty screamy Slipknot-style stuff. The song was definitely a pleasant surprise up until the ending which was a real letdown compared to the rest of the song. 8.5/10 Bush - Letting the Cables Sleep Quote Click here to see my work so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemaru Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 Beautiful. I like it how the words actually mean something, they're not just meaningless carp, like "Cherry pies and 4 windmills make a good car" or something. I give it a 8/10, because it was a little too slow. ~Utada Hikaru - Passion~ Quote Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule. |fb(page)|portfolio|blog| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survulus Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I was surprised by that, again, usually not my style, but this was was really good. Also extra marks for the wierd but cool video. 9/10 Thisis a band I only recently got into, love this song- Prototype by City Sleeps Quote Check out all my newest stuff on my dA I iz bassist here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vito Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 The City Sleeps song reminded me of InMe straight away, thought you might like them haha. That's not my favourite InMe song but it is one of the better ones - 8.9/10 Paper House by Foolproof Quote Click here to see my work so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survulus Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Yeh, InMe have better songs, but Daydream Anonymous was an amazing album. I saw them live a month or two ago, it was amazing. As for that song it's quite good, nice vocals especially, and the guitars are pretty catchy too. 8/10 Now for my song, hehe.

Zwicky Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I reckon the video is far better than the song itself, but since we're only rating the song i'll just give it 6.5/10. Its not overly catchy or original either, but a decent song. My song: Miss Independent - Ne-Yo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vito Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 5.5/10. He's got some good songs - unfortunately, that's not one of them Quote Click here to see my work so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survulus Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hmm, a solid 8/10, it's pretty good, the original song is rubbish I thought, but they put some nice emotion into and make it sound pretty good actually. Big Red by Slaves to Gravity One of the best UK bands in a while, and they won the Kerrang UK Newcomers award. Wierd video though.

becauseiwantedto Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 EDIT: Yeah, I like your song, probably an 8.5... well, because my friend is a "conisseur" of music and thinks the guitar is not pure enough to merit a nine.

survulus Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 The guitar is a very fine instrument, look at more classical players like Django Reinhardt for example, a brilliant musician. But each to thier own. As for your song, well, it's your usual indie with an interesting almost western twist to it, which works well egh I'd say. 7.5/10 for originality probably. Breathe From Coma by Hopesfall Sorry for that one, but the official video has awful sound quality.

MattBlackLamb Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 (I'm rating Breathe From Coma by Hopesfall) It's not a style of music I generally like or listen to, I'm more into heavier more progressive stuff & also into jazz. The dynamic of the song seems to be very flat with very little difference between the verses & the chorus. 7/10 Faster Than The Sun - The Sub Ensemble Edit: Don't listen to the version at the top of the player, listen to the one above the bottom.

survulus Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I have to say I like the occasional jazz song, but when the vocals stop here it seems to fly around a bit too wildly for me. Though the actual vocal parts have improved and classy instrumentation. 7/10 New Beginnings by Finch Going to see them live next month!!!

becauseiwantedto Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 <3 early finch! 9/10 I looked up the last song I posted and this song on google and guess what They were both in the same video game one time! (MLB 2k6 or something) SWEET! If you're up for some comedy, listen to this full. It does, however, have kingdom hearts as the video for some reason.

survulus Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Pretty funny stuff, but I can't rate comedy too highly, but it was hilarious. 8/10 Ahhh geez, this is unbelievable. I don't have much money, but do you guys think I should go see the Taste of Chaos International Tour? It comes to my town this sunday and has Atreyu, Story of the Year and As I lay Dying in it... opinions please people.

RevertedLogic Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Great song, I have their Atreyu's Best Hits CD so I know it very well. It's one of my most favorite songs of theirs and I love the back and forth of Brandon and Alex. It get's an 8.5/10 Here's a great song, a little heavy though. Quote My Youtube Channel!

Kemaru Posted October 23, 2008 Author Share Posted October 23, 2008 It's too bland, there's nothing but screaming. The lyrics are pretty poor too. I give them a 7½/10.

survulus Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Not my style to be honest, and I don't see an immense ammount of originality there, and the tune, whilst repeated quite a bit, just doesn't appeal to me. Sorry. 4/10 Now for something quieter... Little Motel by Modest Mouse Quote Check out all my newest stuff on my dA I iz bassist here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vito Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 7/10. It's not a bad song, good for chillaxing 8) I keep getting the feeling it's going to build up to something amazing, but doesn't. The guy's voice is slightly annoying as well. 23 by Jimmy Eat World Apologies for the video, it's the only version I could find that had the original song on its own.
