would you be ok with calling it Hurricanes?

What about Tempest? Maelstrom probably sounds better, but since that one is water-based, doesn't make sense with the cover

got a pm from vombatus, he agrees with you on tempest
so i think we"ll go with that, unless someone strongly disagrees

there are 4 uploaded + you and Unhealer

Grey Wind had a quite professional sounding demo and said he found a vocalist (the last thing missing) but i haven"t been able to get a reply from him for about a month, so i have no idea if he will contribute

Anyone has him on Facebook ?
and another thing, why did you make the 4 tracks available for streaming on bandcamp already ? ... I think we should've released it all together.

Your track is my favorite from the compilation dude! Too bad you couldn't add vocals, that would have been killer probably.
This compilation is nothing like what I had expected, pretty obscure stuff mostly.

Wow! thanks a lot man. Pretty interesting and varied stuff on the compilation.
Loved the progression and the Opeth-ish leads on your tracks .
Will try and post my detailed feedback of each track.

Nice to see your tracks Unhealer and Innerself, they are good me thinks ! Definitely the more "pro" sounding of the bunch
I'm sorry for not contributing with new material, would have liked to do a more "metal" track but been impossible for a loooong while now.

Why ?

Don't have access to my instruments... and to make a metal song I'd need some real drums/ a lot of time to make it sound decent, both things I lack of nowadays.

I have the same issue, and without my friend (who's also my bandmate) I would've never recorded anything ... in fact, he recorded and produced this whole song, I wrote it, made a guitar pro tab for it and gave him a few hints as to how I want it to sound and he did the rest.

agreed, it was quite interesting, both the sound of the result and working on it, so a sequel would be great, this time with a bit more experience in organizing it

since we"ve increased the participants by six once already by doing part 1, i don"t think getting more people is that difficult next time

I"d suggest "Vortex" as the temporary title, or, which has already been suggested short before the release the first, "Maelstrom"

How about thinking a bit outside the box ... something like a concept album this time with a running theme (not necessarily lyrical) or something to tie the songs together, sort of a challenge rather than a compilation.

originally the album we just released was supposed to be a concept compilation about storms, and we all know how that went

Yeah, but now we are more organized (I hope).
I agree on having something to tie the songs, but that'd be either lyrical (note that we had mostly instrumentals this time) or musical, and the latter will be quite difficult to coordinate/agree and could end up being somewhat limiting.

I'll keep the idea in my mind and if I came up with something that might be interesting I'll tell you.

Improbable but fun idea.... making things together sharing duties, like one does the guitars, other drums, vocals, etc. and we switch between the songs
