Round 8
Sorry for the delay guys, I've been sick the last couple of days.
Player: MoraWintersoul
Artist: Lunatic Soul
Song: Wanderings
Review: I wasn’t aware that this guy was in another band other than Riverside. I like how soothing and calm the song is which goes perfectly well with Mariusz’ voice. While the main core of the song is pretty simple it has quite a lot of arrangements that are very good, also simple but the combination works amazingly.
Score: 6
Player: Shadow Ninja 2.0
Artist: Imagine Dragons
Song: It’s time
Review: Smile achieved
. I love everything about this song,it’s so happy and joyful. I feel like I could listen to it all day long without ever getting tired of it.
Score: 7 + 1

Player: Scorpion
Artist: Dog Fashion Disco
Song: Silent Film
Review: The song has a couple of interesting bits here and there, specially the guitar riffs but the vocals kill this song. I really can’t manage to get past them and it’s a shame because if it wasn’t for that I’m sure I’d really enjoy this song a lot.
Score: 3
Player: King
Artist: Echolyn
Song: Some Memorial
Review: When the song starts I get all worked up with the guitar riff and the keyboards, they work very well together but then I feel disappointed. The song is good but I feel it promised much more than it delivered and I feel that it could be shorter and work better that way.
Score: 4 + 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Player: Zantera
Artist: Tame Impala
Song: It is not meant to be
Review: You weren’t kidding when you said these guys sound like the Beatles but while that influence is very recognizable I can also say that their sound has a unique quality to it. I enjoyed the song quite a lot, it generates an atmosphere that is hard to get out of and is quite calm and soothing even though there’s a lot going on. The only thing I have against it is the ending cause I feel they could have cut the song a bit earlier.
Score: 5 + 1
Player: Lolzeez
Artist: Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Song: Mladic
Review: So as much as I like Post Rock this clearly isn’t the band for me. At no point did the song get my attention and the fact that the song lasts 20 minutes makes that worse. I didn’t hate it, but I wouldn’t listen to it again.
Score: 2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Player: UMH
Artist: Nails
Song: In Exodus
Review: Thank god this song only lasts a little bit over a minute, it’s just noise to me, and not a nice one.
Score: 1
Player: Windmaster
Artist: Kaizers Orchestra
Song: Hjerteknuser
Review: This is different. I’m not sure why but it reminded me a bit of one of Naruto’s songs (haven’t watched that in years). Really nice and enjoyable song, all the string work is wonderfully put together and the singers voice is quite beautiful. The way the song is put together is very unique and I feel it flows the right way all along.
Score: 6 + 1
