TMV World Legacy Member napoleonboot Posted May 1, 2012 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted May 1, 2012 "Dogs Of The Gods" is the second in a series of songs inspired by Viking adventures. http://www.reverbnation.com/play_now/song_13096662 Classic Rock/Metal with influences from Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and others. This is a working mix, the song isn't finished yet, for example no guitar solos yet. Constructive criticism gratefully received George George can often be found playing electric stringy things, and singing...

TMV World Legacy Member Keith Posted May 1, 2012 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted May 1, 2012 I hear some ManoWar in there also. Sounds great man. www.drop-head.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member napoleonboot Posted May 1, 2012 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted May 1, 2012 Keith - thanks. Manowar was never big in UK, so I never listened much back in the day (when my musical bones were forming). I just looked them up on Youtube, I'll get some. I was much more a NWOBHM fan (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal) immersed in the music of Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Angelwitch etc. By the way, on the last song I posted you compared me to Neil Diamond. LOL! George can often be found playing electric stringy things, and singing...

TMV World Legacy Member Jugulator Posted May 2, 2012 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted May 2, 2012 The good old heavy metal... I like it! :cool: http://www.youtube.com/user/IgorJugulatorZotov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMV World Legacy Member napoleonboot Posted May 2, 2012 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted May 2, 2012 Tommy, pmac, Jugulator - thanks guys. Jugulator, it's not old heavy metal, its NEW heavy metal. It just sounds like the old stuff. I think I can hear quite a lot of sibilance, I think I need to look to my recording technique? Can someone confirm/deny what I am hearing and maybe point me ther right way please? I use a large diaphragm condenser mic & sing about 12 cm away from it, with a pop shield (fastened to the mic stand) positioned about half way between me and the mic. I sing loud, apparently - according to my kids who are often in other rooms in the house. I put the mic signal through a pre-amp with the gain set so that I am not getting any clipping anywhere in the signal chain. I am usually peaking on plosives at about 75% of the dynamic range according to the waveform view in my recording s/w. George can often be found playing electric stringy things, and singing...

TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted May 3, 2012 TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted May 3, 2012 Good song, George. Your voice reminded me of Greg Lake from ELP, on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMV World Legacy Member napoleonboot Posted August 21, 2012 Author TMV World Legacy Member Share Posted August 21, 2012 Hi - thanks for your comments. We are retracking the whole thing currently, as we weren't happy with the sound and dynamics. George can often be found playing electric stringy things, and singing...
