New song - Fragments

[ConcreteLake]

Hi,

I just finished recording a new song called Fragments. Please check it out at:

There's also a rough demo of an older song called End of Sleep over there.

Would appreciate if you lent your ears to the tunes, and looking forward to comments on any aspect of the songs, and of course especially vocals.

If you like my music, please do me a big favour and pass it on to more people.

Thanks for your time.

Good stuff. Reminds me a smidgeon of Queensryche. It could be you have a timbre similar to Geoffrey Tate.

[ConcreteLake]

thanks ronws. tate used to a big influence on me, although i've tried to get away from that sound more recently. i guess the tate similarities are much more evident on the older song End of Sleep.

Hi! your voice sounds really good and strong. although progressive rock is not really my cup of tea, but I liked your voice overall. Also, seems your from India. In that case you are my neighbour :)

[ConcreteLake]

Great production and musicianship. Your vocals are really great. Very loose and tension free. Nice in all parts of your range.

This is an engaging piece... lots of nice contrast of tempo, harmonic, rhythmic and melodic content. Kept me interested to hear what was coming next.

[ConcreteLake]

thank you steven, i'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Wow! I was completely blown away.

Very well written - imaginative, creative and never dull. And to think that people like all that repetitive rubbish on the charts. Nice guitar tone and well executed technical chops. And you can sing!!! You kept the vocals confined to the quieter parts of the song, which I thought was very wise. Trying to sing over the distorted guitars on some of the heavier parts of the song would be difficult,

Do you have a myspace or reverbnation page?

[ConcreteLake]

AndrewWu, thanks a lot for the really nice words! i just recently created a myspace, yet to do anything with it really...here it is:

Hi,

I hear a bit of Dennis DeYoung (Styx...Canadian band) in there too. Nice job! Great control...great pitch...are you playing some instruments too?

[ConcreteLake]

chele1000: thanks very much! i've actually never heard styx before, will check them out. i did everything on the song myself - composition/writing, performance and production.
