Here's a fairly new track by me. I'm going to do an edit of it sometime in the near future and modify couple of parts in the song. Anyway, here's the track:

All feedback is welcome.

This is the most fully developed song out of the last three you have posted. Of those three, I like it the best. The chorus works well.

If you are looking for constructive criticism, this track could use some more aggression: louder vocals and dynamic drum fills. In general, your material is very sparse. I think adding chord pads would help fill out your sound.

i havent heard your other tracks, but i think this one sounds pretty good myself. i like how its subtle yet still has an edginess to it. i dont mind it sounding a bit sparse...in fact i think if you filled it in you run the risk of loosing the kind of tense lonely feel it has. just my opinion though.

I enjoyed it. There were some creepy sounds on here. The whispered vox, a theremin-like synth, an almost cheesy synth/organ. They combined well to produce an upbeat, but unsettling track.

Good work Smile

BTW, the "radiant shrine" the lyrics talk about is TV Smile So this was a politically charged song.

----- LYRICS ------

look at your radiant shrine
it's hard to please
it's molding your whole life
filled with false needs

it tells what you should be
but that's a lie
just think for yourself this time
you need to rise

rise

beautiful things
oh beautiful things
beautiful things
oh beautiful things

you have to understand my friend
all the shit they feed ya
people swallow what you give them
they've come to like the taste

look at your radiant shrine
it's hard to please
it's molding your whole life
filled with false needs

it tells what you should be
but that's a lie
just think for yourself this time
you need to rise

beautiful things
oh beautiful things
beautiful things
oh beautiful things

look at your radiant shrine
it's hard to please
it's molding your whole life
filled with false needs

it tells what you should be
but that's a lie
just think for yourself this time
you need to rise
