Still waiting for one participant, but here are the first impressions before I head out to a local bar. I'll post hangman tomorrow, as I don't see the point to post it now while I can't update it.
I expected something more forceful than this, but I guess they say “fucking” in the chorus, so it counts?
This reminds me of some promo albums I’ve received while writing for LOMM, except better executed—which, to be honest, isn’t a high bar to set. Not sure what I think of this yet.
I’m not convinced by what transpires in the middle of the song, but the ending is ridiculously good, the most memorable thing in this round so far.
Each minute I was expecting clean vocals to appear, and they didn’t! This is… salvageable.
Each minute I was expecting growls to begin, and they did! This was somewhat engaging.
Well, that certainly was a handful.
Each minute I was expecting growls to begin, and they did! This didn’t work at all.
Each minute I was expecting growls to begin, and they didn’t! This is great.
Interesting ballad-like storytelling, and definitely the coolest song title in this batch.
It’s as if someone is singing a lullaby while another guy decided to practice his black metal guitar technique in the background, taking breaks every now and then.
Wait, they had other songs this whole time?
This definitely has potential, although I feel the singer isn’t doing this song justice.
While this is pretty inoffensive, especially compared with some other songs here, I’m not sure it offers anything more than that, at least after one listen.
Man, this might rival Spandau Ballet in how deliberately sweet this is.
My friends on DTF have already told me this is djent, so you’ll have to try again.
This is beautiful. One of two songs this round that sent shivers down my spine on the very first listen. I’m fairly sure you should start planning your strategy for the next five rounds.
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, I’ve got your strategy here.
A lot of songs in this round have this cheerful, happy vibe I’m not exactly a fan of. Either this one will grow on me, or you’re going to be disappointed in the score.
