I'm not doing well in this roulette.

There's still lots to come. You'll probably do better.

Glad you liked it so much! Yeah the opening piano stuff is melancholy, but I think that really adds to why it is so uplifting by the end, because of the journey it takes you on. It always makes me smile.

Dude, you're 3 points behind the top half, it's all pretty close so don't sweat it.

Oh god this was a hard round to rank. Every song here was good, so if you get rated low, your song was still good.

Best song(5 points):

DTVT: Tears of Sahara - Tony MacAlpine

Woah. This is one epic guitar song.

Anyways, this song was pretty much one big guitar solo, and holy christ it was awesome.

He plays with such skill and feel in this one it's just such a great listen. The main melody is really epic too. Awesome song.

High tier(4 points):

zxlkho: The Crusade - Trivium

This song had some really great riffs in it. Now as far as I know, Trivium isn't a prog band, but this was a pretty proggy song. Lots of mad skillz in this one too to go along with those br00tal riffs. Love it.

Gorille85: Royksopp Forever - Royksopp
Damn, this song has a really cool feel to it. I see from the comments it must be on Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, but I never noticed it. Too bad I didn't, cause this song is awesome. Really simple compared to the other two songs, but really awesome.

Middle tier (3 points):

jsem: I Remember Stevie - Andy Timmons
So this is another sort of solo song like Tears of Sahara. It's not really as epic and awesome, but it's still a great listen from a pretty great guitar player, or at least it seems. I've never heard this guy before, but he seems pretty awesome. I'll have to check out more of him.

dtismajesty: Ballad 4 (Part 1) - Tosca Tango Orchestra
This song was pretty awesome. Those strings really made this song for me, and there were lots of amazing melodies flying around that made me enjoy this one. I found it a little less interesting towards the end, but still, awesome.

Medium Low tier(2 points):

ariich: Hyperventilate - Frost*
I love the way the band came in on this one. Pretty awesome. Anyways, I know little Frost* and I know that they broke up recently, which is really sad. This song was pretty great with lots of cool melodies, but I feel it could be 2 minutes shorter.

The King in Crimson: Medicine Wheel - Between the Buried and Me
Good song. I've only listened to Colors from these guys, which was a decent album, and this song was pretty good. I find it lacked something truly awesome in it though. Still, it was a good song.

Bottom tier (1 point):

TheVoxyn: The Immaculate Misconception - Antimatter
Arrgh, I really wanted to rate this one higher, but I feel it went around the same sort of feel and type of melody for a bit too long.

It was actually a really cool song overall, but it lost my interest after a bit.

Rankings:
DTVT: 15 points
zxlkho: 14 points
ariich/YBS: 13 points
Gorille85: 11 points
TheVoxyn: 11 points
jsem: 11 points
dtismajesty: 11 points
The King In Crimson: 10 points

Round 5:
This'll be an open round. Send whatever you want.

The King In Crimson: Banana Man - Tally Hall[/b]

Alright enough with the laughs, but I gotta say you took a big risk this round, and it paid off. Despite the fact both the song and music video are completely insane and kinda stupid, I actually thought this song kicked major ass (probably because of the insanity and stupidity). But now it's probably gonna be stuck in my head for quite a while.

Glad you enjoyed it and yes, it will be stuck in your heard.... forever.

Not surprised I only got 2 points. I had a hell of a time trying to find a good instrumental track that you probably wouldn't know.

LieLowTheWantedMan · « **Reply #82 on:** March 18, 2011, 11:31:24 PM »

Yeah. The song was pretty good, it just had some tough-ass competition.

Sent. I'm pretty confident in the next round.

Also, I'm glad you liked The Crusade. It's fucking awesome

I don't know how to do the Virginia Tech receiving high five, so I'll just do the normal one.

From the original thread:

Time limit: Songs may be up to 15 minutes in length.

Question answered.

BUT that was for the first round. He didn't say the rule applied for the entire roulette, did he?

I thought that applied to the entire roulette.

jsem · « **Reply #93 on:** March 19, 2011, 02:36:40 PM »

Might be. It is quite ambiguous....

Edit: Don't wanna double post. Will there be a cover round? Because if so, I wanna save this one submission for the cover round.

ariich · « **Reply #94 on:** March 19, 2011, 05:20:07 PM »

LieLow, I assume that artists who have already been submitted are out of bounds? Or only those scoring above a certain number of points?

EDIT: I am assuming so, so have sent in my submission.

I think he said, in a previous post, that submitting the same artist is okay.

ariich · « **Reply #96 on:** March 20, 2011, 11:21:57 AM »

Hmm, well never mind anyway, I found something else. And besides, this should be about introducing him to new stuff.

It does. Also, sorry for not saying anything yesterday. I was away at my aunts house.

Nah. Just ended up using a submission I coulda used for a later round now, but we don't know what the later rounds are yet. So yeah...

I'm fairly confident though

LieLowTheWantedMan · « **Reply #103 on:** March 20, 2011, 03:36:33 PM »

Not even I know the rounds.

I'm making them up to suit my moods at the time.

That's what I thought.. cuz that's how its been so far
