go more hardcore but more old school hardcore punk rather than lame screamo xXbreakdownXx hardcore

i say this because i hear a lot of thrashy, dirty potential in the music that isn't being fully realised!

Hey Victory Road, I am also a fan of your work smile I don't want to go to hardcore so i think ill go somewhere in the middle Don't worry i won't be making any br00tal songs xD

I'm just not really feeling it (and I listen to quite a bit of nintendocore, HtheB and iamerror etc).
Maybe try filling out the sound, make it sound heavier.  And adding some variation.
I think the vocals could work but you should maybe imo pull down the gain and try to get a bit of a lower pitch out of your voice for it?

Maybe listen to some of these guys to see what I mean: http://www.soldier001.com/
They're really heavy for what they are, its rad.

Thank you i'm definitely changing the amount of effects on the vocals, just waiting to see if more people want more variation in the screams.

Edit: should i go for a more Hardcore Approach???

I haven't listened to the song, but I can tell what it sounds like from my fellow musicians reactions and the first song you posted. You should definitely lower the volume of the vocals and try to make them more clean and fit into themix better. If they're the right volume with minimal effects processing it can sound good. The track is just loud right now, and thats no good unless it's clear what everything is.

Okay so the main reaction is less effects and cleaner vocals?

I definitely recommend you listen to the song it sounds very different to the first song.

@ SketchMan3 Thanks you have been giving me positive feedback from day one, I am using LSDJ, i will try using the wave channel a bit more...... And as i have stated before i will be keeping that style of screaming but if you guys say so i will switch it up a bit on different lyrics (Tell me if that would be good)

Also i'm kinda confused because the awesome users of CMO tell me to ease up on the effects but my friends say effects sound better :3

Thanks for all the comments guys.....

1. Yes i won't rush the release that wasn't really a proper date, it will probably take a lot longer

2. @ 9heart Sorry you found them annoying, Would you guys prefer if i change the types of screams on different lyrics? and when i record vocals it takes me a lot of takes but i do the whole song each take and i don't run out of breath so i dont think that's a problem smile

3 @ ChipChallenge More or less that's what there going to sound like, i can add more kick if you like and same with 9-heart would you prefer if i change the types of screams on different lyrics? And yes i do like the song :S Yeah i'm planning to do a kick sound smile

PS It's great to hear from people who inspire me with there music............. Chip's Challenge i am a fan smile
