Jugulator

Another song is out now...

I am the one who rules your dreams

Unconscious deeds and eeriest fears

The lord of chaos in your mind

My single wish can make you cry

Or I can put you on cloud 9

An easy game to rob you blind

Your secret desire

Will blaze up like fire

Delight and admire

I’ll lift you much higher

I’ll penetrate your mind…

I’ll penetrate your mind…

I’ll penetrate your mind…

I’ll penetrate your mind…

Mr. Joker, Mr. Joker is my name

Mr. Joker, Mr. Joker, that’s my game

Spawned by the dark side of your soul

I’ll win the game and take control

Of your existence and belief

Your dreams will fade to black and white

And in the shadows of the night

You’ll find it out there’s no relief

I don´t know Igor, many metal singers sound operatic - Bruce Dickinson, Rob Halford to mention a few.

Rob's never sounded operatic. As for Bruce... yes, sometimes he sounds like that.

Well, first of all I'd say not bad at all. The main technical problem is that you don't support the voice good enough, therefore your vibrato is unstable and the sound isn't smooth. The major performance problem is that you try to sing this song in an "operatic" manner. This is not Nessun Dorma, it's Halloween :)

Another song from the upcoming LP...

Lyrics

A night’s at my door

A shade’s on the floor

A beautiful face

Behind curtain lace

A fairy of light

Far into the night

So charmed and inspired

I’m losing my mind…

Oh, this can’t be a dream, just a dream, wildest dream

Caught by the light

And gone by sunrise

A princess of night

In angel’s disguise

Pleasure and pain

You bring me again

Take off this chain

You drive me insane

I’m holding your hand

But night’s gonna end

My love at first sight

Don’t leave at first light…

Oh, I want you to come back again and again

Thanks. Yes, this song is very unusual for Scorpions.

Thank you a lot, Ron. BTW, I don't believe I'm as good as you say when singing Scorpions :)

Thank you a lot!

David, your cover is great, too.

Well, this is a very good and (regretfully) underrated song by Scorpions - The Sails of Charon. Together with my friend Petar (guitars), we decided to make a collab cover of the song. Here we are...

Yes, I think it's a very good idea to create threads dedicated to a separate band or a cool song and then exchange cover versions for discussion and critique.

Thanks. I think that all our covers in this thread are good and they don't seem to sound like a carbon copy of Bruce :)

Well, this is my try of the above song

Hey man, very good! Your lower notes remind me Blaze Bayley.

Thank you, Olem. The accent's been my first priority.

Thank you, Ron. Let's call this critique :D

Good cover in spite that you sang in my left ear only LOL

Now your falsetto is a bit closer to what we often call "head voice". Keep on working on this issue.

Your lower range and light rasp sound very good.

Another track by The Balance - Stuck in Limbo. It tells the audience about... Hmmm... Well, you'd better take a listen

Lyrics

No flesh, no blood

No fear and no pain

Just 0's and 1's

In my digital brain

I'm not a man

Not a creature of God

Synthetic blend's

Infiltrating my heart

(So) What's my destiny?

Lost for eternity

Longing for clarity

Waiting for Judgment (Day)

One misty day

Pulse chains in my brain

Made me aware

And I felt ghastly pain

No sins I've made

But I'm falling from grace

Neither evil nor good

Gates of Limbo I'll face

Oh my good Lord

Don't leave me imprisoned

in this timeless plane of existence

It's thy will to bring me salvation

Show me the way out of the realm of the dead

And let me enter Heaven

Or pass the circles of Hell

As soon as I'm dead

Thank you. You see, about 50% of the songs in this medley are faster than the original. "The Trooper" just requires more work.

No critique?! Hmmm..

Hi folks,

Here we (The Balance) are again with the longest cover we ever made. And this is our tribute to Ronnie James Dio, the greatest metal voice of all time. Enjoy and please don't forget to rate/critique my vocals

You seem to sing the higher notes unsafe pushing them a bit too much. The rest sounds good.

Unfortunately, Soundcloud does not allow cover songs, that's why I post my covers to Soundclick :)

Well, if it's gonna be Iron Maiden, you should sound much thicker. I mean pulling more chest and adding some thick rasp. Your tone isn't bad, but it is more suitable to cover something like Dream theater or Sonata Arctica.
