haha
sorry, it was just the way every syllable was on the beat, it seemed uber-regimented. I felt like it need to skip a bit or syncopate slightly.

Yeah, saying my meter had no rhythm seemed a bit odd, when it's deliberately been nailed to the beat (a point stressed by the synth that matches the vocal melody all the way). No biggie.

Dankins: I get the feeling this isn’t going to do much more than plink and plonk it’s way through till the end. Oh no, I was wrong, thankfully. There are bits in this I want to like, but in the end it’s too lacsadaisical, MIDI-ish and rambly.


hahahaha lacsadaisical, if i heard someone say that in common conversation a pimp-smacking would be in order
Sometimes Iwonder...and I think, what if I werent so good at doing everything, that maybe just for one day I wouldn't be infinitely better than everyone else and I wouldn't have to hurt all your feelings.

What does my song, which kicks ass, have to do with me "bashing" Melvin? I didn't know there was a rule that stated you could only criticize someone if your entry was percieved by jolly roger to be better than theirs. Dipshit.

Of course there isn't, but I think there's a pretty broad consensus here inre: your submission.

If you're going to use Fruityloops, learn the FX mixer...please? :P

The dipshit is the one who thinks I don't have right to criticize Melvin because his song is better than mine. Which it's not, anyway.
Let's talk about good songs.
Agreed, so back to my song, what did everyone like best? The guitar? The orchestra? The robot voice? Personally, it's all so awesome I can't choose.

That part kicks tons of ass. I was just sitting there jamming out on my bass, then I was like, "you know what kicks ass, Mortal Kombat." And I just took it from there.

I think you need to read the previous reply before his. :P
From spoken word to actual singing, I can screw up any style with style. :D

Yeah, you know, in case I don't do reviews of this fight, that line really jumped out at me and said "BAM!" It's great.

i just got back from a killer trip to NYC and was pretty stoked about having somet iem to do reviews. these are done as i listen (and have a brew or two). :)


Alloniondiet. I proposed to this song. She said ys!

Caravanray. Can't get into this really. Dont' get it.

Djbickdick. This'd be cooler if it worked. But I kinda dig it.

Djsnyderdelsessanddrizzyg. Cool idea, guitar sounds weird. WAY to long.

Doscientos. Not my thang. Nice to hear ladies throwin down.


Glenncase. I likde the first part. The reste not so much.

Hostessmostess. Dude this so needed to bust out somewhere.

Johnnycashpoint. It's a bit to lite for me.

Kevingriffing. Wow...amost a minute bfore anything resembling a beat happens.

Klownhole. I like it but it still bugs me sort of.

Lethargio. Wow...almost a minute befor any vox! What's with you self0indulgent musicos. Heh.

Melvin. Melvin is sure getting they're shit together.

Papercutbrigade. Too bad your after melvin.



Produce. That sounds like some of the fake BoC that was getting' around prerelease. Well not the rap stuff.

Rattpoizin. I was not expecting that first stuff from your name. Wheres the metal? Heh there it is. This might the vote getter.

Rossdurand. This leaves me with nothing.

ss. i hear pumpkins too.

Thosemeddlingkids. That was a waste.

Truthandregert. Was coolish until the singing started.


Totally, my vote is going to rattpoizin.
