Dominimous's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hurt (JC's rendition)]

Well done.

I find it odd though that you do a cover of a cover. You do add a bit of a rockabilly touch to it with your singing style. Which is cool but I think Cash covered this end of it well enough. I would have liked to see what other direction Trent Reznor's industrial original could have been taken.

TheRealStevieHendrix responds:

Yeah, I could never stack of to Cash's version. But it was still fun to cover nonetheless. It is odd to cover a cover, but Noel covering a cover of himself is by far much wierder.

[Awakening (Switchfoot Cover)]

Wow I'm impressed

I really really like this song. The string scratches hit you kind of rough in the beginning but once you hit in with the effects and the vocals it's really rather pretty. You've got a fantastic voice. You did a good job with the recording but a professional will put you in the big leagues. Best I've heard on here so far man.

Keep going I wanna hear more!

SatoDraygonFist2 responds:

Aiyo, thanks mate. I have a cover of, 'no one else' by building 429 on here now too, but its not as good as this, at least i dont think. the vocals on the other one aren't as strong.

[Go on your marry way]

Damn you

I really want an ice cream right now.

TwistedMindSet responds:

Ice cream for everyone

[Sunrise Chant]

Now here's something you don't hear every day.

This must've taken a lot of time. The vocals are awesome. Some of the drums are a little cluttered but really not enough to take away from the tune.

It's a treat to hear something different like pop up every once in a while.

Ninjkabat responds:

Well, it actually did kinda take a long time to make this one; but that's because I ended up having to start over 5 times because of stupid mistakes. Like, not saving and then crashing the program type of mistakes.

Anyway, I agree that the drums are a little cluttered at times. It kinda bugged me, being a drummer, but then I realized that I could just say "it's an African chant, and they're never exactly precise." If I went back and did it all over again, I would clean up some of them. But at the end of the day, I just wanted to be done and move on to other songs. I have a lot of ideas that I wanna start on.

Glad you liked it, though. It's always nice to hear that I made something that people like.

[** \The Dark Side of Major/ **]

Sweet guitar tone

I would say it drags a bit but it is a ballad. I like the section towards the middle where you're playing lead but you start putting some rhythm in it. A similar song might benefit with a little rhythm guitar behind the lead to keep the song moving.

Sonofkirk responds:

Yes, it drag a bit but I think that is in the context. At the beginin, there is not rythm to preserve the dark side of this song. Thanks for your review !

[Rock Till You Drop]

Not bad

I really like that distorted bass and how you arrange it with the guitar runs.

The thing that irks me is between the treble in the fl slayer and the constant endless crash. It comes off a bit obnoxious.

ShootingStar responds:

I agree with the distorted bass, I really like that, the endless crash, wasn't supposed to be a crash, it was more of a hit-hat, but could sound like a crash...
