Review a song + Post a song

[Lisnaholic]

paris combo- pretty good got that sands of Arabia kind of feel nice little lounge band 2/5


good night

TBH, norg, I had no idea you liked the gentle kind of music of the last few selections.
Lost My Mind is a great track: intriguing and atmospheric. At least that's how it starts, but in the second half I found myself hoping for some new audio surprise, but that never arrived, so there was something routine about the way the song ended. That's why it loses a point and ends up with 8/10

gotta be honest on my review just a NA chant loop with a generic edm beat ...even gots the air horns n broken glass effects  ...that was bad LOL

"A Sad Cartoon" - Loathe

Initial impressions were early Police (that hollow guitar) then it burst into a frenzy of power chords and I thought we were looking at something nu-metal, but the vocal was very pleasant. I don't know if this is hardcore/post-hardcore or emo or what, but the shifts in mood were really effective, the sort of dream pop interlude there at around the 2:30 mark quite unexpected, then the almost Metallica-style growling guitar. Yeah, a lot to pack in to five minutes of music. Impressive.

"With Autumn I'll Surrender" - Harakiri for the Sky

I really dig this Trollheart!  really cool stuff, Svalbard is one of my favorite bands right now and this scratches a similar itch.  I love how beautiful the notes are while not sacrificing the heavy onslaught of the guitar tones and drums and vocals.  The video is really cool as well and gave me a cool movie idea.

^ This guy has a really good, slightly spooky voice, that reminded me of Colin Blunstone, and the whole song is much more gentle than I expected. Even when the percussive stuff comes in at 25 seconds, it is light and unusual. The words didn't make a lot of sense to me, but these days I've perfected the art of listening to words and not bothering to link them together unless I choose to, so that worked well for me on this song.

^ That's a really damning review, especially after I chose a song specifically because I thought it was so unusual.
Thanks for staying honest and for revitalizing this thread Norg.
