think I've tried just about everything now, except rap..which I won't rule out completely HiHi
I recorded this one with miz in mind, I know he has a definite goth style so I wanted to let him loose on the vocal track. special thanks to larycraft again for sending a great lead guitar track. don't think I've ever said turn it up before but I'm wonderin if it works here, haaa!

hey bluedad, always cool when someone likes something outta their norm. its not really my norm either but it was that kind of day I guess. I should mention theres actually a vsti in there, lol, after I recorded my rhythm guitar I thought of a patch from sts21 pro I liked, so there, its still keeping with kvr protocol

Very enjoyable. The rhythm section worked very well, holding everything together, and the synths provided the right amount of atmosphere. The vocals were definitely a great fit for the track, but I think the standout on here was the guitar. The lead lines were excellent, and the rhythm/chord work was very cool, with excellent tones throughout.

Great track Cool

ya that was the objective with this one, and the last one actually too. I think I got it outta my system for now. I'm looking forward to experimenting with some synths I haven't touched in a while.

hey I'm happy you got into it, appreciate you leaving a comment, thanks

Very nice. The lead track is very tasteful. Especially like those chorused rhythm guitar chord stabs. Kind of like The Cure, The Police, Queensryche, Type O Negative and Faith No More all mixed in one track. Goth with a nod to some prog metal.

cool thinking back about those bands and being influenced today. you mention The Cure, that made me reach for the album, "Disintegration" haven't heard it in ages, that was a good one to sit back to.
thanks for stopping in

Very nicely built/produced, I like the way it sounds.
It has its own syle indeed, great guitars and original expressive vocals
Well done

Cheers

dunno what goth is, but the vocalist reminded me a bit of Bowie and the music reminded me of a slightly cleaned up, more upbeat black sabbath.

nicely done.

Sounds good well done. I like the mix of distorted guitar with the chorus guitar.
