TVs-Slayer's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Completely Fucking Squashed]

Not again

Man, that sucks that shit keeps happening to your music. This riff kicks ass all over the place. Fast competent playing, and very tasty. You know how to handle the frets, something not a lot of people I know have gotten the grasp of. The drum line is a good addition, and a good compliment. Just i gotta harp on the quality a little. It could stand to be a little better, the midrange sounds good, but otherwise it sounds flat in places. What equipment do you use to record? Sounds like you just jack in the amp into the soundcard. But thats all I really got a problem with here, keep making those tasty riffs, and I'll keep headbanging to them.

[Fulp Friction]

Nice tribute

Another winner. Great lyrics as usual. Actually still some of the best lyrics I have ever heard. In fact the lyrics in this track are absolutely genius. I'm sure Tom can take it. The beat is great, and the synth is perfect. Just the song is too short. And the ending sucks. But oh well, it is a hell of a ride.

[Dick Clubbin']

What else can I say?

This shit is tight! You gotta make an album, I'd love to hear this at the club. Frankly better than the crap they usually play. Though absolutely no one actually listens to lyrics. As for this track, the lyrics are the best I've heard from you. Tried to freestyle rap this last week, but I get tied up with the lyrics all too often. You got a transcript of the lyrics? That'd be cool. Sucks though that it seems the AP doesn't seem to appreciate this. Its perverse and insane, and thats just how I like my hip hop. Fuck the haters, no, literally, fuck the haters. Good stuff.

[*Atomic Trigger 2* [ZeRo BaSs]]

Should have been #1 IMO

Its just that #1 and #2 are good, but i liked this one better cause its solid and very complete. My friend immediantely expressed dislike for the voice samples near the end, but I thought they fit. So theres already a difference of opinion with this song. But I had very few complaints about this track. Mainly, back to the voice samples, i liked them, but when they came in the focus of the song shifted too much for me. Would have been better if the samples were intigrated intot he rest of the track a little so it would be more like a buildup to the freestyle samples at the end. But the beat and the theme was complimentary. Just the shift between the two parts in this song threw me off. Its very good and acomplished, but the sudden shift tainted it a bit.

[CastleVania-The Tragic Prince]

A little sloppy

But played well none the less. The songs just starts abruptly, and off note. Clarity could stand to be a little better. Midranges were alright, just everything else was muddled. Technically played well though. Good take on the riff. The drum line kinda stunk, but not a real big problem. Could be an awesome loop for a flash, but you should go and clean up that opening. Would have liked to have heard the better version of this, too bad about the hard drive crash, i've been through that. Only a few manageable problems with this, the riff starts in the middle of the beat and it sounds a bit muddy, but pretty good playing none the less.

GoreBastard responds:

Yeah, I spent ages on the first one, and it was cool as fuck, but I forgot to save it!!! DOH! So I remade it in about 15 minutes. I wish I spent more time on it now.

[The 404 song!]

Laughable

Yeah, I'd expect to hear this whenever I got a website thats down. Could be interesting to say the least. Nice clean lyrics, and good background instruments. Its nice cause there is some actual humor in this track. I think we've all had these experiences. Its just short enough to be practical, and the file size is small enough to be actually useful for flash. Now I'm guessing that anyone who would use this in their movie would more than likely just follow the song with the movie. But hey, very amusing lyrics and good music. Very nice effort.

Khuskan responds:

Its the set 404 site for www.iamacup.net.. just put / then some random letters afterwards.

[No Justice (Sung)]

Uhhhhh

Its interesting, I'll give it that. But thevocals were just a bit off beat and off key. And for the lyrics i could actually understand, weren't really that good. The techno trcak behind it was pretty basic, nothing really stood out or pulled me in. And the song really needs a proper ending. A little more work on the technical side of this song, more balance, and better lyrics, and it could be improved. And perhaps not singing in momotone. Its an idea but didn't survive execution.

Unfairy responds:

Well, I think the lyrics were good... Obviously, it wasn't sung very well. So, I didn't expect good ratings from it on that point.

[The Evil Anthem (working)]

A bit generic

But it makes a good loop. Kinda sounds like a B-side from a 16-bit Final Fantasy soundtrack. Good synth use, the melody sounded nice. The tolling bell was too loud in my opinion, would have liked it better if it was quieter and less frequent. For the file size and lenght, its was really only one small loop with a break down ending though. It could have been shorter. Not bad at all I would say.

[The Evil Anthem]

Best song i heard all day!

Yeah, sorry, just had to do that. I'll be good and go listen to the song proper now.

jj-cashmasta responds:

lol, i will never hear the end of this :P
Thanks for the review, lol

[PaNdOrA_Death From Below]

Sounds more like House techno in a wind tunnel

I have several song sthat haven't been reviewed yet, but I just assumed thats because they suck. Well, not sure if its technically a feasable thing to do, resubmitting and all, but you are right, this track does deserve some attention. Actually i'm glad to hear a song of yours that wasn't done in by a small flaw. Though the drum roll in the background seems a bit out of place to me, the rest of the song works very well. Just as much as I like it, when it comes down to it there isn't much to it. The synths are great, but get lost in the beat. But I must admit it is very well done, it just doesn't get me all that excited eithier.

Pandora-Tranquil responds:

Thanks for the review, im glad you liked it somewhat. Its one of my darker songs. if you want a trance listen to the striker, or radiate.
