I just didn’t like the VII chord. Also the grace notes in say sheet 13 sounded a bit awkward (the ones just before the main notes in the vocals). I didn’t think the chorus was well defined enough, sounded like the verse, also you could have changed it a littler when you repeated it at the end. The ending chord also I didn’t think was good, mainly because there was none.
It was good though!
… does you band even have 4 violins? or is someone gonna play it on a keyboard?
im not going to listen to the entire song but from the first few muinutes there is partial clashing between the violins and strat guitars. I liked this song, much better than the other songs (didn’t sound as weird)
I cannot help but question the simple drumming (half the time there were no cymbals being hit). has your drummer not practiced enough or do you just not like it. What museline said was mostly true except I feel that chorus was defined well enough as it was much more powerful than the other part’s. also on the chorus you cut off the crash cymbal on the drums but that shouldn’t affect the stage performance. BTW how old is your band, like average age.
Thnx for critism. Answers to the questions: I’m gonna play it on keyboard (strings), I just think this drums sound better and we’re 14 and 13 years old.
BTW, my age explains my bad english. Sorry for that.
@RealLifeLars:
It was…average.
Transitions were horrible. I’m sorry, they were. Why were there breaks of vocals between verse and chorus? There’s no transition there, so you shouldn’t put a break there either.
The Chorus was Not well-defined at all. This was mainly due to each vocal note not being distinguished enough. The violins were too soft; they have the most important part in the chorus. They practically define it. The vocals in the chorus weren’t that great though.
The solo was good, but the end of it was horrible. It’s saying, “Here’s my three notes, I’ll play them epically over and over again, then I’ll just randomly stop and go back to the chorus without a transition or a stopping point.”
Hated the ending. Come on, you can do better. A tom, a low tom, mind you, ending the song. It goes like this
MIDDLE POWER (Chorus) [Should be Main Power, but it wasn’t very powerful]
MAIN POWER (Solo) [Usually a backup power to the chorus; or a second main power.]
LOW POWER (Verse) [That’s good; it’s supposed to be like that]
GOOD POWER (Intro) [This should be the power of the end as well]
NO POWER (Outro) [Where did the power go?]
Meh. This song really isn’t that great.
What the heck? That’s awesome!
I guess if you say so. It sounds kinda random to me.
A.S.T.O.C.O (4.2)- in my opinion I think the first two eight notes played by the guitar should have been before the first beat of the measure and the long note should have been on beat, but thats only opinion. Also, there are 3 notes played by the guitar that are panned for some reason when the rest of its previous notes aren’t. You also forgot to make 2 B’s Bb’s in sheet 6. I have no problem with the chorus, it is powerful, and fun to listen to. The drumming is superb, as usual. some of the strat chords during the verse I don’t like though :. The last problem I had with the song is that the buildup to the solo started out good but then there were 12 beats of just background before the solo started… (or was the buildup part of the solo… idk). anyways I think its a well balanced song that I enjoy listening to everytime I click play.
Techno Rock?
This is my farewell to this version of Notessimo, if another one comes up. (I’m skeptical)
TBH I really didn’t like the beggining part, the parts I liked were after the tempo change, but even after that it was quite a bit repetitive, but very satisfying to listen to indeed.
Didn’t seem much like rock. But I really enjoyed your song! Great melodies! I didn’t really like the key changes though.
I agree with Muse. Not really rock, but very nice song. 4.2/5
Personally, I think this is my best song!
Please, Crtisize me well!
I was not expecting that! It was a lot better than I thought it would be. The melody line’s did start to get a little repetitive near the end.
The drums were pretty good, too.
I agree with Pinkie! Good!
Shows a huge improvement over your last song, although I need to stress how short it is. When a song is this short it’s usually either a loop or unfinished.
That’s because it’s a loop.
EDIT: OHH woops i seriously thought i was in the dance thread and talking about my dirty bass song. sorry.
I also made another song. Im not sure it was supposed to go in unfineshed songs, Because Basicly, The song is fineshed, I just need a few tweaks.
Here is thy SONG!!!
Great, but what I didn’t like was that the notes in measures 20-23 (the fender strats) were off a bit. I don’t know if that was on purpose or not, and even though they were quiet, it just didn’t sound right. Also the F in measure four didn’t sound right so maybe a G would do? But very good. 4.5/5
- Chords seemed to be lacking. Were you using a chord progression?
- Some notes seemed a bit off
- Too short.
It was good though!
