Thanks a bunch! I already tried making the EP on Spotify, but the Cobalt track is missing there. I will listen to it later.

Also, I know the name of your EP now :neverusethis:
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

Alright, I listened to your EP, Parama, and I am very impressed with how well it flows. The consistency is pretty damn great.

Really liked the Hacride track, although I have heard more from them.
The transistion into the Cobalt song was noticeable, in the sense that it goes to a different sort of vibe, but not jarring in any way.
I did not really like the Cobalt track, but that's mostly because I'm not too fond of black metal vocals. It's pretty solid regardless.
I had a hard time firguring out when the Cobalt song stopped and the next one came on, what a fantastic transition!
This next one was alright, but a little too frantic here and there for my tastes.
Again, brilliant transition in the next track.
I'd say this one (The Hirsch Effekt) was my least favourite from your EP, because it's not cohesive at all. I'm listened to them before and, while they are very technical and all that, song-writing wise, they completely mess around. This track doesn't go anywhere.
Next transition was, as expected, really good.
And the Xanthochroid was a pretty cool closer indeed. Even though this song sounds the 'weakest' in terms of production, there's quite an 'epic' feel at the end, good choice. One thing though; that church organ gets really annoying towards the end haha

Songs: 7.5
Flow: 9.0

---

Seriously, I liked it quite a bit and I can see you put lots of working into editing the songs so that they flow well. Kudos for that :tup
I don't know what Tomi would think of this though; it's quite heavy and heavy on the harsh vocals as well. Some very frantic parts (Eryn Non Dae. and The Hirsch Effekt). The EP is quite relentless, but it works really well!

that's because Ira is part of a suite on the album it comes from as well, i'll agree that maybe it doesn't work so well as a standalone song but it was never meant to be one

Just to say I didn't forget about you or the EPs :P I have exams these days but I'm listening to your EPs in the background, hoping I'll find enough time soon to really focus on them. I think I have a favourite right now but there are a lot of 'What were they thinking?' moments :P

luke ep:
first two songs are succ
not really a fan of the vocals on this dommin song. decent enough besides.
the second dommin song is such traincore. it has a bit more personality than the last one though.
the black mages song is nice as an interlude i guess but it's really brief and basically just a piano piece, ok
so i looked it up because it seemed weird and the two john frusciante songs are listed backwards on the ep. also that intro on carvel. weird. song is very much not something for me but oh well
lonely mcsong is even less compelling tho
one day i'll get into biffy the vampire slayer. this song is making an okay argument. it's solid

i don't really feel like these songs had much to do with each other at all but it was okay. weird choice of closer too honestly.
will score higher than me.

Whenever I go to 'sent messages' there's nothing there?? Weird.

@Parama, about what I expected. Yes, Tomi listed the two John Frusciante songs back to front. I know what you mean about the intro to Carvel but I really wanted to include the song but felt it fitted better with the intro than without. I didn't go for an epic closer but I think it works. I know the songs are fairly different but I like to think they go together quite well. Time will tell  :corn

EDIT: I will try and get around to listening to everyone else's EPs but I started my new job on Tuesday so I've been mega busy.

Will we be getting the results for 5th place this coming week possibly?

I just wanted to post here. Since this is already taking too long I won't include real write-ups for home's EP, just few sentences + scores.
Exams are over but I still need to finish a project for next Tuesday and work for two others so it's not like I have much time now :P but I do have more than last few weeks.
I'd like to deliver results next weekend but I can't promise anything.
That one EP I liked the best before is still the my favorite, I think.

I started doing write-ups but I still don't know who won :P
I hope you're ok with having 2-3 write-ups today and the rest tomorrow. Also, scoring will be a little different than in the rest of the roulette. It's still 1-10 but I wouldn't compare songs from EP round and the rest of the roulette, I want scores to be spread more, something I should have done from the start, next time (v2.0) there will be rankings, no ratings :P
