My Attempt at Death Metal...

[Nyarlathotep]

Still gotta add a solo to the middle... a friend is helping there, cus I'm more of a rhythm kinda guy.

Not bad, I enjoyed it. Pretty simplistic though, I think the song could stand having another riff at some point. But a good start. I look forward to seeing what you do for the solo, because honestly, if feels like the whole song is based around the solo.

Nice, though. Maybe one day I'll actually be able to finish one of my songs, I'll hold back some of my other critisims until then

guitar riff was not creative at all.
drums weren't brutal at all.
the vocals weren't really even growls. they sounded weak.

keep working at it and spend some more time thinking of how to make things all work out together and being more creative. just keep working at things should get better.

Try to build up a better vocabulary of the music you are attempting to play. This will give your riffs more life, they are pretty flat and bland overall.

The best advice I can offer is find a band you can hang with and jam some metal.

Havn't actually learned any. This was just kindof a strange attempt on a weird day....

The friend I mentioned earlier is actually an art major and is going (hopfully) to do a video for it. It will involve "creeping meat"...

All in all some good fun

BTW, thanks for the suggestions! I mostly play a metal style that is quite RATM/Hip-Hop influenced, and slowish, so playing with 16th note kicks was hard even at 80bpm

Figured I'd just sate my curiosity and see what some of you thought.

A little secret: Those vocals aren't really vocals just me grunting into the mic....

hehehe...
