Here's something for the person that wants something out of the ordinary. I'm a member and I created it but it's not the reason I'm here. Any kind of feedback is welcome. I guess I've heard most things over the years so I won't be upset if someone is negative (actually most people are). I would call it a mixture of thrash, black metal, heavy metal and rock. Enjoy!! http://www.myspace.com/blackanima http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFA6MoXjwjg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgXJ822wMXI Don't forget to tell us what you think in this thread!

I can happily say your music is better than your cover art.

Account deleted Written by Savopipo on 04.12.2011 at 01:53 It's nice when black metal is the periphery of the music, rather than the focus. A bit like Dawnbringer perhaps (not unlike your stuff). I'll grab a copy off the website and save you the postage fees (unless you get some sexy album art going on) =P

04.12.2011 - 09:36 Written by [user id=4365] on 04.12.2011 at 01:46 Not even gonna lie, I wasn't gonna check this out but the posted videos made it easier so I bit. Anyway, I like the music. It's simple, kind of a black/heavy hybrid that has its fair share of accessibility and extremity. Honestly the two things that spoke to me on a negative level were the clean vocals (er, the talking bits) and the lyrics (which, if you don't read them, you don't notice). This is a lot more mature than I was expecting.

I only listened the 2 songs posted, but this is kind of good. I like the mix between clean/harsh vocals, it reminds me of Bifrost (the tone is also very similar). Oh and the production is also clear, I wasn't expecting such "profesional" sound by looking at the cover

04.12.2011 - 14:38 Written by Bad English on 04.12.2011 at 13:33 Sorry if I'm stupid but is "emnt" some abbtiviation like "rofl" or is it just a typo. What I'm trying to say is that I don't fully understand what you mean? Please note that I'm not trying to be disrespectful or anything just want to be able to understand the feedback I'm getting.

Account deleted Written by Savopipo on 04.12.2011 at 14:38 I wouldn't waste your time. Bad English's messages have defied even the best code-breakers. Asking him to be more clear is like asking Paris Hilton to be a bit more classy and intelligent.

04.12.2011 - 15:23 Written by Vombatus on 04.12.2011 at 14:15 Thanks a lot. I don't spend a lot of time on the covers and I've heard before that people think they are shit but the interesting thing that is more or less new to me is the positive response I've received now. Thanks again.

04.12.2011 - 21:27 Written by Savopipo on 04.12.2011 at 11:38 Well there's good and bad really. It's ironic the parts I felt needed fixing (the clean vocal parts) seemed to coincide with what I felt were cheesy lyrics.

04.12.2011 - 22:24 Written by Troy Killjoy on 04.12.2011 at 21:27 It's interesting. You know I have been writing lyrics for more than 25 years not only for my own bands but also for other bands and up until now only two people complained about them. I guess it could be English not being my native toungue.

You can write lyrics about fisting Margaret Thatcher for all I care, it doesn't make a blind bit of difference to the musical quality.

04.12.2011 - 22:27 Written by Savopipo on 04.12.2011 at 22:24 Possibly. I mean I'm sure Kvarforth's lyrics wouldn't be as depressive had they been written in English. Or if the guys from Gris didn't write their lyrics in French. I know Google translate isn't the greatest, but when you translate those lyrics line by line, you get some pretty facepalm-worthy results. Same goes for Lifelover.

04.12.2011 - 22:28 Written by [user id=4365] on 04.12.2011 at 22:27 And I agree. The only reason I noticed them was because the video had them written out. The music isn't worse off as a result. Besides, it's not like metal bands are known for featuring Shakespearean poetry (unless they copy something he wrote of course).

05.12.2011 - 06:43 Written by [user id=4365] on 04.12.2011 at 22:27 Yeah and that's how most people feel I guess. What annoys me is that I've always felt that lyrics are very important and I spend a lot of time on those lyrics. Most of the time the firt thing I put together before there's even a single riff is the lyrics (or the drafts for them) so it really hurts when someone believes they are "cheesy". Maybe I should do a "Valfar" and write all the lyrics in some old almost forgotten swedish dialect.

It wasn't my intent to offend you. I just felt as I read along with the music that there were some cheesy lines (especially the chorus in the first song), but hey - it's not like I'm writing lyrics for a band.
