Love-Hate-War's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lucy is Dead]

Nice

Do you know what? I was sitting there thinking, well its about time for some BAD MAN!!! You definatly didn't dissapoint! The clean intro was nice, but it really started getting brutal when the thrash riff started. Not much more I can say on this apart from, who the fuck is Lucy? Haha

Keep it metal man!!

Bad-Man-Incorporated responds:

HAHA, thanks a hell of a lot motherfucker!!!YOur new tracks kick ass!!
I'll be posting more eventually. I'm just trying to figure out how the fuck to use my new programs...hahaha..

oh..and I love you too.

Nice

Well well mr.jones, what do we have hear. Another blissed out classic. The intro was somewhat...80's? Would you take offense to that? Haha XD But relaxing nonetheless. I liked the way the ambient layers all built up, and the tinkly like synth line playing lightly over the top, like the shiny dabs of light that play over a mountain stream (lol wtf? XD). The disadvantage of it though is that it put me in a hypnotic, almost comotose state of tranquility. I must now go take a cold shower to counter the effects of your music!

Cracking stuff, you've done it again. I look forward to more from you my good man. Fifen all the way!!

[**_Chaos_**]

Cool

I really loved this. A few things let you down in my eyes. Mainly the production side of things. It was very quiet, I had to crank my speakers up to breaking point to get it at acceptable metal listening levels. You're a great guitarist no doubt, much better than me. But the drums were too loud and drowning out the awesome riffage. But apart from that, you had some fucking mosh worthy riffage in there. Dont let the 8 discourage you, this is a great song! If it were properly mixed it's very 10 worthy!!! Love your stuff man, rock on!!

Thanks for your vote, Love-Hate-War! You voted 5 for **_Chaos_**, keeping its score at 5.00.

DarKsidE555 responds:

Woah, thanks a lot for the cool review man! Much appreciated. An 8? It's a good score, why should I let myself down because on that? I like honest reviews, not the kinda reviews that all go like "OMFG awsome!11! Make more!!"

As I already mentioned in my other response, I really need to do something about my guitar "loudness". Don't worry, I'll find a way for that. :)

Drums were a tad to loud, jupp. I wouldn't say that I'm a better guitarist than you. I would say it's backwards. You're kick ass man.

So yeah, thanks for the cool review and the vote man!

[Khuskan - Prelude in Pi]

wow

Khuskan you truly are the spooniest of bards. Not only have you pulled of something mathmatical, you've made it sound fucking brilliant. I would have loved this piece without knowing you based it on pi, and now I know you have it's made it all the more enjoyable. Very clever stuff my man!!!

- Joe. M

Khuskan responds:

Again, i'm going to go with that I made the phrases sound good, pi arranged them into something brillient ;-)

[clap those undead hands!]

Wow!!

This is great!! I loved the old school, lo-fi sound. At first I thought it wasn't intentional, then I realised you have very good production techniques! I love the feel of this whole track. You certainly have some talent. It is the most original thing i've heard in a while. And the changes in the song keep it versitile and interesting. It was a nice relaxing, sort of jazzy song. 5's for you!! Keep it up!!!

attemptedperfection responds:

thanks! ^_^

[Flounder]

Great stuff!

I've been meaning to review some of your work for a long time, but for some reason never got round to it. This song has a nice mellowed out groove. And I like your use of panning on the percussion, and the lush backing, giving it a nice kind of lazy summer day feel. If you ever need a vocalist, im more than happy to help. My msn is in my profile. Keep up the good shit man!!

- Joe M

pitbulljones responds:

ahhh no probs mate, i'm sure i have to review you too. yea panning the percussion and drums is one of oldest techniques when it comes to stereo, just position the drums etc as you'd see em on stage, it's a good way to get stereo spread but in modern music alot of people it feels too spaced. I'll be sure to use you on a track or two man, same as a fair few others. i just need to get my writing boots on then i'll give you all a few tracks to work on.

thanks for your review.

[Corpse Terrorist in Rapeatory]

Nice

Ok, i apologise in advance if i seem a little critical.
Your guitar tone isn't very powerful, it was being drowned by the powerful kick. Also it was centred. Try double tracking (ie - recording the same part twice, one panned left, one panned right) it will improve the quality some. Also there was a lack of any noticable bass. Add some to give the song more power.
The song itself i found a bit repetitive, a bit too much like generic metal. It also didn't really build up to anything, it just kind of ended like it started...
You got a nice drum sound going though.
Sorry to be so harsh, you definatly have talent, keep it up man!!

- Joe M.

Casualty responds:

Thanks for the help man! That's not critical, I call it helpful if you put it like you did!
About the centered track. I was going to double-channel it, but I simply forgot >_<
And... I don't have a bass lol
I know it repeats and stuff, but I'm too lazy to find other good riffs when I found one, and I just record it. I'll try to find 2 next time lol!

Thanks for everything dude!

[Flame Dancer]

Nice

As everyone is making such a big hooha about you i thought i check this out.
Overall id say its very good for a first submission, but i have no idea how long you've been making music...so yeh. I think my first submission was some awful song about meat loaf.
Bass drum was much louder than everything else, which was a bit offputting. And the bass wasn't booming enough for my liking. But you utilised simple yet effective, if not a little generic, dance club melodies. Overall an enjoyable song, keep it up and you'll be doing great in no time.

Check my audio out some time =) (shameless self promotion!)

- Joe Marshall

[Pump It]

great

I liked this, laid back feel, interesting melodies. Definatly left me wanting more. I like the bass line, made the song interesting as it was always moving, not static like alot of bass lines are. And the use of panning gave the song a good stereo spread so each instrument was clear and defined. Keep it up man!!

- Joseph Marshall

nightvision responds:

I too, enjoyed the movement in the bassline. It wasn't at all generic, yet it was very coherent. Thanks for the review buddy!
