Sonofkirk's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Back from the Dead]

\m/

Really great intro dude, nice clean sound and I liked this "violin" guitar at the begining, you did it very nicely. The voice was great, from where are these samples ? Or did you recorded them yourself ? In any case it sounds great. Though, when the song gets heavy, the guitar are not loud and powerful enough compared to the drum. Turn that guitar up !!! lol This is only thing I have to complai about, dude. That rocked. 5'd as well. 4.44 / 5.00 (+ 0.053)

pitchblak responds:

Thanx for the vote and review man, Glad ya dig it. The effect at the beginning did sound a bit like a violin but was actually some effect on my pedal with a swell added to it, just liked the erie sound it gave,anyways, i got the voice samples from the classic black & white * Return of the Living Dead * I kinda like my drums to be up more than alot of NGrs do. I like to be able to hear the kick drum stand out. Everybody has different prefferences and opinions though ya know.Anyways, rock on man.

[Tetris (Metal Version)]

Awesome

I loved the drums, man, heavy as fuck. I generaly don't like the sound of EZDrummer, but you did a nice use of this program ; ). Nice rhythm guitar, though the leads were not as good as the rhythm. The bends was off tune, but I don't care that much ; ). Very well done ! 5'd for sure. 4.35 / 5.00 (+ 0.012) Keep on rockin' !

himenow responds:

Yeah, EZDrummer gets a bit repetitive, so you have to tweak the sound a bit, something I haven't quite gotten the hang of yet :P

Anyway, thanks for your comment. :)

[Grind It (Metal)]

Nice : )

That was nice, I see that you have improved your way to mix a lot. There is less compression on the drums that there used to be. Same thing with the guitar. Now, it sounds really really nice. The drums were excellent, nice guitar tone and riffs also. The drums sounds like Addictive Drums ... are you using it ? The clean part was great, relaxing and smooth. Congrats man, you did a nice job with it \m/ Fived : 4.52 / 5.00 (+ 0.024)

Ps : 1 week to make this ? You are quick o.O ; ). I average 3 weeks of work to make a completed song lol.

FarCryDX responds:

Actually making it took about 4 hours, haha. Getting that mix took a week.

..Damnit. :P Thanks bro.

[The Vital Scourge]

Hell yeah

W00t ! Freaking damn awesome guys. Reich really messed your bassline ... it rocks. Kudos guys. Keep it up \m/ 4.15 / 5.00 (+ 0.036) 5'd as well

MindOverMatt responds:

Wow, thanks friend. Yeah, I love getting to work with Eternalreich. It's always a treat and inspiration to make some metal with him. Also, your guitar challenge lead is awesome. Keep up the good work!Metal!
Matt

XxCowMeatxX responds:

[Episode 666 (In flames cover)]

I fuckin' loved it, fucker. I love these melodies, it fits very well with the rest of the song. Awesome riffs as always : ). Though the drum crashs were not loud enough ... Fix it now fucker !! lol. 5'd 4.24 / 5.00 (+ 0.045)

Sorry for calling you "fucker" two times, fucker.

XxCowMeatxX responds:

[Sleep In Your Tomb]

Haha, you really shredded my shitty song : ). Now it sounds great. "Sleeeeeep in my tomb !!" Haha it's awesome ! I love the clean part at 1:24, it's dark as hell ! Really good lyrics too. And this clipping is weird ... but fuck. You rock ! Thanks for taking the time to make my song kick ass, bro ! Fived ^^ 4.41 / 5.00 (+ 0.036)

Btw, who is sonofkirk ? He sucks.

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Hmm...I didn't hear any clipping on the version you spoke of. Also, check again now. I resang the lyrics, changed up the beginning. Added two fast verses to get the flow right.

SONOFKIRK IS THE FUCKING MAN, BITCH! Thanks for lettin me spit.

[The Vital Scourge (vox)]

\m/

Haha, that was amazing man. I already reviewed the instrumental song, the guys did a fuckin' great job. And you shredded this instrummental with your vokills, and nice solo you did lol. Though the end was wierd ... the last riff is awesome but the fade out hide it, it's shame. I fived it anyway 5.00 / 5.00 (+ 0.0000040) Rock on fucker \m/

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

Thanks man. The ending was like that already. Glad you dig, son. Where you been hiding?

[Do You Know Fear?]

OMFG

That was fuckin' scary dude ... the screams and the ambiant sounds ... brrr ... The piano was a nice addition too. Where did you get all these screams and ambiant sounds ? They sound really awesome. Fived dude you rock hard.
4.45 / 5.00 (+ 0.11)

Dimoria responds:

Hehe thanks man :) I just googled for scream sounds. And the ambient sounds I made myselft with cellos , basses and my microphone etc :) Heart beats my mouth close to the mic etc. :) Sort of hard to explain but I guess you know what I mean :P Still thanks alot :)

[Control - The Strode]

Awesome

I enjoyed it, man. Your guitar tone was great as fuck. Nice chord progression, it has something evil ... yeah a very dark feeling, that sounds really nice. You did a good job writting this. The ambiant effect (the storm and stuff) was a really nice addition. Haha great apreggios. But I have something to complain about ... the DRUMS ! They sound like GP4 !! WTF ! lol. Seriously try to get EZDrummer or Addictive drums and this would be perfect. I give you a 9 because you can improve the drums, though I vote teh 5 : ) Current Score 4.77 / 5.00 (+ 0.034) Rawk Own \m/

K1LL3R-9 responds:

thanks, I do use GP5 for the drums and keyboards, but only because I use said program to write out the entire song. I'll have to check out those programs, if it has a way to convert files or if its just easy to recreate ill move onto those, thanks for the suggestions!
