This was utterly excelent. It seemed to be emo, but not shit, which is what emo normally is. I LOVED the dirty hard-rock feel to it, and that guitar is just fuckin' amazing. The unorthodoxed drums fit perfectly, they really fucked with your head in a good way, making you think it's off beat even though it isn't. And most of all, I loved the slight funk/blues feel this song has. It's just....well, it's really damn fuckin' amazing. The best Ive ever heard on Newgrounds. Better yet, one of the best I've heard in music in general. However, the only thing "bad" that could be said about this, is the vocal track is just a tad to harsh. The whole undermastered thing does sound cool, but less harsh vocals.
Just...damn.

I have to say, I really fuckin' enjoyed this. I loved the slightly off tune notes that you place throughout the song, the "dirty" style drums fit perfectly, and the overall dark vibe this songs oozes is just amazing. The two things I would say bad about this song, however, is that the constant fading in and out of the drums became a little repetitive and kinda' annoying. Also, you need to switch up the main melody quite a bit. It, too becomes repetitive by the middle of the song. Other than that, a VERY good fuckin' job. In fact, I think I'm going to fav you as an artist so I can keep tabs. Good luck making more =D

Not as god as the last one. It seemed... thin. I was expecting the song to build up, but it never did. Basically, everything seemed quiet, even the bass whose quietness slightly overpowered the quiet melodies. A nice, piercing, clear synth would have sounded great. It was also a tad repetitive. So, in general, just needed to be... louder. However, the mastering was impecable, I liked the melodies. This song seems to have a lot of potential, jsut needs more BALLS. Still 8/10, 5/5 (I don't give less unless it REALLY sucks, then I don't vote for it at all), and still free publicity.

Sorry, couldn't resist. Anyways, great track. Loved the entire thing. However, the slowdown would have worked had you slowed DOWN to it instead of just dropping it off. Also, just a suggestion really, it would have been nice to hear a varied bass kick (rock beat would have been awsome) starting at 1:02. It would start of quiet, then build up in volume until it reached it's peak at the slowdown, then fades back out, then back in again later in the song. Still though, I thought the song was great as it was. 10/10 5/5 a download, and free publicity from me to my friends.

However, definately needs some rap. Without it, the song goes nowhere, and although the song itself is excellent, it just needs that little bit of "umph", namely rap vocals, that would set it over the top. Everything else was impecable though, great job.

However, the beginning and ending was repetitive as hell. Especially without any melody. But I absolutely LOVED the song once you started into it proper. IT seems to me that you have a lot of talent for this sort of thing. So good job on this remake.

"Well butter my ass and call me buscuits!"
I just enjoyed the hell out of that song. The drums were perfect. And I love that synth at 2:17. And so you know what else I love about this song?
No fade out, and no quarter-note kicks.
And the ending.
Which was, well, epic.
I like to give constructive criticism, but I honestly have none. to me, the song composition was perfect, as well as the sounds you used. I guess I could say, add trumpets like you did in Great White Heat, however, this is not a criticism, just a wishful suggestion on my part.
Excellent, EXCELLENT, job.

But, of course, I'm going to bust your ass on the quarter note kicks, but I'm sure you knew that anyways :D Anyhoo, I GREATLY enjoyed that song. Although I do agree that's it's a little generic, I can still hear your "dirty" style in it, and it gives me great pleasure as always, and I just don't mind generic trance. However, although the beginning was nice, it took the song a little too long to build up, and the hard-core vocal used in the very beginning didn't help that. You expected something just absolutely ball-shattering to happen after that, and the song actually anti-climaxed to the middle. Which is fine, it was just made really uncomfortable and awkward by the first use of the vocal. Although the vocals themselves sounded awsome, great mastering going on there. And on that note, great mastering at the entire song. And you didn't fade it out. That has made me VERY happy =D So, you know the only criticism would be quarter note kicks and kind of a failed beginning, but it redeems itself at almost exactly halfway through the song, where it finally picks up nicely. So, great job once again, and I'm glad as hell that you're finally getting your inspiration back. Mines turned into an ADD patient, so at least someones getting things done around here ;D Alright, well, I'll awkwardly end my review as always, and once again, great job!
P.S. Did I mention that I loved the last half of the song?
