XGM-Zeth's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Intro to Hell]

Not original, but kickass!

Ok, This would be a great intro, a bit opeth-like with the whole "silent,silent,dOOm" thing, im giving you 10/10 and 5/5

speedmetalmessiah responds:

Thanks man.I'm working on finishing the drums later today then I'm gonna start writing the riffs.Hopefully the tune will be finished in like a week.Thanks for the review man.

[Thrash Loop]

Ok, Good metal loop

Ok, this is like "OMFGIMGONNAKILLYOUALL" kinda song, which is cool.

It needs a better mic for the guitar no matter though :(
And you seem to be one of the better metal people here at Newgrounds, i still remember when you had like...three songs here :)
You're improving, keep on doing so.

speedmetalmessiah responds:

Thanks a lot man.Actually I record through the line in plug through my digitech gnx2.It was just a little sloppy.Thanks for the support man it means a lot to me that people like my song or riffs.Thanks again.

[Rewired--_--]

I was impressed

As it was in techno i was expecting a number of riffs just being completely randomly put together.
But this is something i could actually listen to, as the start caught my interest.

I dont have much love left for techno, but this was well done and it seems you put alot of effort into it.

The guitar could have been improved, how many takes did you do ?

This is one of the only songs getting 10/10 from me, and i actually cared to review it :O
Reason for 10/10 is that its the only damn techno music that caught my interest and not sounding too damn bad.

Its above average in my general music opinion, and its godly compared to the other techno i've heard.

The drums sound a bit too FL, i have to admit that, easy made and not too much effort put into em, but hey, ill live through it.

The bass line were something i could headbang to (i am a metal head), and that says quite a bit in my opinion.

Im just raberling now. (if thats a word)
Good song ! hope you enjoy this review, and i certainly hope you do !

Best Regards - Zeth -

PERVOK responds:

ok as for the takes:
i only did 2 takes(since the first one was a little off beat and it pissed me off)
and as for the drums not having a lot of effort in them...
dude!
that was the hardest part of the song to make! i POURED effrot into that.

w/e

thanks for the review dude

[I have created a monster!!!]

Try harder

Prøv litt meir, ok?
Berre fordi du er norsk så er eg ikkje snill mot deg. musikken din er grei, men du burde ta meir arbeid i musikken.

Håpe eg hører meir du har lagd, og at du forbedrer deg. Likte nokke av stykke, så du får en 7/10, men du må arbeide meir på musikken.

Ok, Introen er litt opphakka når den går over, men blir bedre når du får igang verset.
Anbefalest å sette bakgrunns effekter litt høgere.

Svar på Norsk/Engelsk.

Skabbish responds:

hahaha!!

du er fjorten år og ska liksom komme og dømme meg
ka faen vett du om å lage musikk?!?!
hehe.. neida..
men tenk deg litt om..
kanskje sangen var meint å høres ut slik han gjør?? prøve hardere? eg vett ikkje ka eg ska tro, men greit, eg får vel det då!

eat my midikeyboard, så talast me!

[RGH: Dusk Mist]

Ok, This is your best.

This is your best, its my style, i love metal and all, but this is like a good acoustic one :)
It sounds kinda heroic though, not that scary.

This one should SERIOUSLY be used, its a too big genious behind it to be forgotten.
Make more songs this way and ill continue to review em.

The guitar was impressing, the rain should have had better sound effects, but its all good.
If its real, it needs to be recorded better.

RyeGuyHead responds:

Yeah...I definatly missed on the scary part. The rain i used SUCKED...but it was all i had, so oh well. No, not real, i wish i could play guitar

[RGH: Haphazardly(Mystery Pack)]

What to you make these with?

Ok, I had some time left and felt like reviewing you.

Anyways, this one wasnt your best, nor the worst.
So what do you use making these? FL? Acid? Reason?

This song was kinda complex though :)

RyeGuyHead responds:

Just fruity loops, but it was weird...I opened this pack from fruity loops that said reason, and i was like....wha??? So i made a song with all the preset instruments plus loads of effects. This song was intended to be the best....just goofy. And yes, I really tried to toss around the melody between the instruments.

[RGH: Seldom Rock It(Ambien)]

Sounds like something from mario

You know, this is a pretty thing indeed.
Should be used in a flash with something dream-thingy over it.

Liked the drumloop thingy, was easy but fit the song perfectly.

RyeGuyHead responds:

was no drum loop, that was hand-crafted goodness.

[War Call]

So...catchy

Ok, I usually hate these kinda things.
But this just is singing "DO THE HAPPY DANCE ZETH! DO IT!"

Like the concept. Really do.
The solo wasnt that good though, You should just make a loop with the other stuff.

RyeGuyHead responds:

dance, Zeth, dance!

[chill out track202]

Read Down There.

Ok, First of all.
I've heard really much that could be linked to this thing, Its not that original but it still is calm as you promise.

Second of all, What strings/pads do you use? and i assume the program is either reason, acid of FL?

The effort put in this doesnt seem THAT big but ive seen people get high scores without working for it, so I've seen so much worse so im gonna give you a decent score.

The ending was kinda cliche.
And do you have any instruments? Or do all digitally?

I havent seen you around here before, you probably havent seen me either so that really doesnt matter. I just hope you countinue making music because it was a nice first submission.

Just dont expect it to remain at a good score forever, because the audio portal is full of people who constantly vote 0 at every submission.

Welcome to the portal, good luck further on.
"In depth review by Zeth"

Nicholls responds:

Cheers.
The Program i used to create this track was Reason.
I used an NNXT Rack mount, and used it to gain a sound called panchoir to gain the bass melody and harmony.
for the drums i just used drum lanes via REDRUM.

So there you go.............
Cheers

[My first metal song]

The drums need work.

Ok, The guitar was excellent, far better than the average, it seemed quite planned.
However, It seemed quite random and non stabile. I think even though its your first you should make a solid riff that goes through much of the song. and the second and light guitar could have been better fit.

I am a fan of metal, And this was no exception of metal's good music :D

Good luck with yer music.

speedmetalmessiah responds:

Thanks for the review I love hearing feedback.Yeah your right when I made this I was so amped about finally writing my own music that I ended up cramming a bunch of ideas together.The solo was just a filler because without one it sounded empty.My newest one is much better as far as stability.Thanks a lot for the review I appreciate it.
