I would kill for those vocals in the heavier section! It's amazing, stunning all around, digging it left, right and center, and my own voice will just have to do lol.

Well apparently, I shit a brick, so it must be pretty darn good.

Props for Taucer singing in Swahili.

Usually I don't have a problem with random cumshots, but this time it just completely took me out of the mood. Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to put them in EVERYTHING.

That aside, this is a bold and generally successful attempt at arranging one of the more intimidating tracks in VG music. Kudos!

LIES. taucer specifically requested one in this song, so i had to suffice. it's pretty clear where i took over on the arrangement of the track, and that's the dividing line. i thought it was a suitable transition =)

soulinether, taucer sounds fantastic, doesn't he? like i said in the writeup, they were originally just open fifths, but his voice is really easy to melodyne because of his tone. so it came out with him sounding just as good as if it was live.

dunther, i saw that on my rss feed, too. i think it was just a glitch in the feed itself.

Well, the original did, afterall, have the one of most epic cumshots ever.

Cool. Good to know.

Saw it on the site itself; it came up and then went down. Dave said, in short, he made some mistakes while putting it up and had to take it down to fix them.

ah, missed that. it was a long-ass writeup with a lot of formatting, so missing something is to be expected occasionally.
