Hey Max, very nice sound! Really sounds like you got it down.

For the song though, I think the distortion was very slightly too much, not much just tone it back a little. However, I would go back abit more on the nasality, specially on "you" in the chorus. I still very much enjoyed this though. Seems I will never post anything here, all the others swedes are too good xD

Well, I liked it Now, I will probably be alone in this, but I liked the 2nd verse more than the first. It was a bit pitchy, but to me it sounded more like a bit of lazy attitude rather than wrong pitch. This is pure taste however.

For the whole sound, I would urge the guitarist to get some more bass into the sound, it was quite thin. I understand it will probably be more thoroughly done when not in teaser form.

Good Job!

Hi, what I was trying to say was in that particular song on the verses, you sounded a little bit shaky on the melody but you already explained you were not 100% sure so I guess that's the reason.

Keep up the good work!

Ok, I finally got home.

Sounds pretty sweet man, you really have the sound going. However, I would like to hear you really nail the notes from the start, sometimes it sounds pitchy in the verses because you might be not just sounding just as determined as the rest of your bands sound, if you get my meaning?

Overall though, I think it was good. Keep working on it until you sing those songs "effortlessly".

Edit: Oh, and I also found what you based your band name on.

2nd Edit: In The Lie that Binds... I do have one note for the mix. Your ss's comes through very hard, at least for me. I am quite sensitive to that kind of frequenzy, so it's probably not as noticable but you could tone it done to get a more homogenous sound in that song. Otherwise, very cool songs mate.

It's a long way home from work!

No, I have as you probably have understood, forgot it. I will try to remember though and you will hear my feedback. I am however a beginner, so all my feedback will be opinionbased only :)

Can't listen from my phone, will try to give a listen when I come home

Very true. The more I consolidate the basics the greater improvements I see all over my range. However, once every now and then one wants to check the progress (aswell as just singing something cause you feel like it) and then the hard songs you can't really do becomes something of a benchmark.

Anyways, keeping working on the basics is indeed the foundation and nothing will be good on top of it if.that sucks :)

I can hear you have the trouble with this one as I have, though you sound a lot better than I do I think one problem can be that you get the feeling that you should really push since its got rasp and is very aggressive, but I know at least for me I lose the "sweet spot" and I actually get a fuller sound when I "back off" mentally.

I would like to say though you have a killer vibrato. You should check out fair to Midland, you could come really close to that singe's sound if you wanted I think

Just one word for this: Awsomest!

Very very nice! Such clarity and freedom, why don't you share some? :P

Hey Mivke. Others may disagree but I think one of the easiest is "Breaking the Silence." It is mid-range of tenor, upper end of baritone.

The other one, really good for legit baritones is "Silent Lucidity." In fact, approach that one as a baritone with countertenor for the higher stuff in that song, which is really no higher than "Breaking the Silence" or really, for that matter, "Della Brown."

Thanks for the tips. I listened to "Breaking the Silence" and what an awsome song! It's above my level though, since I quite newly was just able to sing higher than a g#4... I might be able to try it pitched down though, we will see. I wouldn't want my first song contribution to be THAT much of an embaressment :P

Maybe this is the right place to ask this question.

Are there any easier QR song out there? I would like to participate, but I'm a beginner with quite limited range so I wouldn't want to break myself with something too over the top.

Unfortunately I have not listened to QR either, so I would like some help as to where to look for the "easier" ones.

Thanks! :)

Very nice indeed. Technically sound but even more importantly, the feeling for the song was really there.

Awsome! :)

Really nice one! I have not heard this song before, never really listened alot to Metallica except for the Black Album. I still think I know how the original would sound though, and I think you did a great job. Only thing I would change is actually part of the mixing of the vocals, not the vocals themselves. The atmosphere as someone stated before might be easier heard with less "wet" vocals. You s's are quite easily heard, and I think Metallica sounds a bit "dryer" and "dirtier".

Other than that detail, awsome job :)
