    Default N.I.B. Cover

    Kinda different yet again. Tried to do kind of a Halford type of vocal. I think it turned out with somewhat mixed results, what do you think?

    That's pretty wild man! Sounds like a choir of demented demons, along with a couple of santa's elves, screaming out the lyrics. The guitar solos are cool, I like that you don't play them exact, they have sort of an untamed, Glen Buxton quality.

    The vocals are really good technically but not really my style, still it's obvious that you are very talented. I like your piano sound a lot, and your guitar solos are incredible :D

    The vocals aren't really my style either, lol. I was just trying something new, but yeah thanks for the comments man. I apreciate your feedback. I think my microphone might be to blame a bit for how thin the vox sound a bit too, it's just the mic that comes with rock band the video game. I need to invest in a decent one sometime.

    One of the things I'm somewhat self conscious with are my guitar solos, so yeah, I'm a little surprised people liked them, lol. But very appreciative. Thanks.

    Painkiller-like vocals in N.I.B.? Interesting idea, although it sounds too weird to my ears :laugh

    But as always, you've done fine job technically and instrumentally.

    Yeah, it's a bit of a departure, haha. I like to do things differently than the norm.

    But I'll tell you, my throat was a bit sore the rest of they day.

    Thanks man, this is one of the few songs I can play from beginning to end. It's just so damn fun to play on the guitar.

    just uploaded an updated version. Tweaked the vocals a bit. Sound a bit more full now. To see the difference, the updated version is on my bandcamp page, the previous is on youtube.

    Just imported the audio files from garageband into pro tools and mixed and mastered the track. There is a remarkable difference. First track that I've mixed and mastered but I think it sounds great if I may pat myself on the back a bit. I've replaced the previous version with the updated one. I recommend listening with decent headphones or speakers.

    Taking a pro tools certification course at the college I go to, going to turn this in as an assignment next week.
