Vocalist Dad

It is that emotion that writes the best love and breakup songs. Don't worry about feeling to emotional, you kept it in check in order to perform this song. :)

IronZeppelin, at least you are listening to and enjoying a great band and artist. Keep practicing. :cool:

Enander, I am not sure if I know much about the genre you wrote this for but my hat is off to the work you have done. Your note selection for vocals in the song is very nice and I still caught a hint of Metal at the end :cool: Keep up the good work. Steve

Snejk, I just wanted to drop you a note about this great song you and the band pulled off. First, the production is very professional and I think your vocals are great. I really have been wondering about the status of the band and their lead singer. Did anything ever come of your concern? I really don’t know the history of the band as to how they formed or when you arrived in the picture. When you all write music, what part do you play in the creative process? Are you writing lyrics together, are you coming up with melodies together, did all of this exist before your arrival and you are just singing what the band already created? I ask this because as good as the musicians are in your band; there are other bands with equally gifted musicians that are dying to find a singer of your ability to finish out their band. I know you do not want to leave something that has the potential of Archania but if it happens, I know the band that finds you will be very grateful. It is obvious that this is your calling and I know there may be set backs along the way but I know you will persevere. I am a big believer in things happen for a reason. Steve

Igor, who is the good looking dude in the video with no ball cap on? He sounds familiar but I don't recognize him. Just like Snejk, you all are putting out a great product. It is very exciting to hear and see you young bloods working your butts off and putting your craft to work. Keep it up. Steve

Snejk, good stuff, the band sounds great, the vocals sound great and I really like your note choices for the melody. I think you all are really getting a feel for who Archania is. Congratulations on a great product. Keep working hard, it will pay off someday.

George, very nice, good stuff. It has a little Yes feel to me. Great production as well. Steve

nicely done Ron, enjoyed it greatly.

Enander, I really dug it. I really like the fact that when you are singing you are really putting it all out there. Sometimes you just got to say, the heck with it, I'm doing this and go for it. Keep it up and buy your neigbors some cookies and teach them to love rock. :cool: Steve

Hey Keith, nice job. I see in the video, no bass. Have you ditched the bass and moved up to the front where you belong? I am not familiar with the KTVA contest so I don't know where the link is to vote. Steve

good stuff Gena, keep it up. :cool:

I think with any new band, there is a time needed to develop and figure out what is your sound and style. I know that this first album has a really wide spectrum of styles. They have many influences but as the band matures and becomes its own entity, you start to see, hear and feel what it is they are becoming. It has been quite fascinating. This first album has 11 songs over a year period, from just meeting and jamming to trying to write ones material. They have since written 6 new songs while finishing up this project. The 6 new songs seem to have a more consistent theme. They are figuring out what kind of band they are. So much of what a band becomes is due to the abilities in the band. I'm sure many here will understand what I mean. It is quite different to write music and come up with your own lyrics and then create a melody. Note selection is as individualistic as to the artist creating it. I believe that is why when I hear someone posting an original on this forum; I really enjoy the peak inside their creative minds. Thanks for the continued sharing. I really appreciate and enjoy it and admire the courage to put it out there for us to hear. Steve

That was beautiful Chavie, thanks for sharing.

Thank you young man, I certainly know what you are capable of so I hope I hear many good things from you. I will pass on your comments to the gang. Steve

Thanks for the heads up, I hope it is ok now.
