Head banging mania
 An old tune that i threw together just for pure fun.

Inspired by Mr Necrom as its sounds like hes havung fun, I forgot what that was

Rocking stuff man, the main riff is catchy as hell.
How many guitars did you record in this?

I used an Ibanez in the left 1 track and a Takamine in the right 1 track. During the F/A riff I used a Jackson on the centre track but not very audible as I thought if i ever get vocals on it I want the vox in the middle.
Also I played the bass through a zoom fx unit for guitar then straight to mixer.
I should have bought it up more in the mix but I was pretty drunk lol
Oh and sorry for spelling your name wrong
I purposely wanted one guitar to have a harsh, almost cold mechanical tone and one to have a softer, more fluid tone so they compliment each other and a much more textured colourful sound.

Cool man  . I think you should try and get vocals on this, it would make it really interesting. I would love to hear more interesting drums right before the main riff as well, just to let you know it's time to take off...lol

Yea, I had the coolest drum program but I cant seem to find it anymore, so Ive had to make do with simple ones. On my initial recording I play drums, I find it much better with live drums but for the life of me I cant find the cd either......Im a mess lol

I liked the song on the overall but I thought the drum sounded too much damp. A bigger drum sound would have made the song heavier, and the guitars were not as heavy as expected, maybe due to the different guitars and too many layers perhaps.
But I really dig the song man.... btw can I do a cover?

I agree with most of whats been said already, the main riff there kicks ass real cool groove to it and pretty ballsy!! But the only thing thats letting the track down is a lack of vocals and that really dry drum sound.
But overall a great track mate. Really liked it

Wow! Way cool! Thanks for the comments guys, yea, I think I get too bored trying to program the drums (I havent got the gears to record live drums  ) but yea, I also like the idea someone wants to cover my stuff!
Man I hear alot of others play their stuff and it blows me away, I want to write alot of songs but give it to those who play better then me!
Yea But thanks heaps guys!
