Xmas Metal Medley

[Sbeast]

I have just completed a Metal Medley of some well known Christmas songs. There's also a video to go along with it. Happy (early) Xmas

Thanks for the comment. Yeah I tried to keep it interesting stylistically. The drums are a custom made EX24 instrument with some processing effects applied to them.

Good freakin Job!

That's really awesome man, pretty good medley of the slightly "less" metal christmas songs. (Carol of the Bells, God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman and Canon in D being the most over used)

I have just completed a remastered version of my medley from last year. First post has been updated for anyone who is interested.

Like it a lot!

Although I like the harmonic altercations, sometimes I feel like they're a little weak and don't suit the melody lines that much. e.g. 0:42 - i would have stuck to A major or C#minor instead of C#major. I wasn't a fan of quite a lot of the harmonic choices of o come all ye faithful - 2:04 - nice playing but you made all of the chords major when in fact the second chord sounds odd to me as a major (should be Gminor). Also 2:27 - 2:50 - it seemed like you used the same chord as the melody note and moved in step - so everything was moving together. In the original same chord is actually sounded far more frequently (with different inversions). Though of course you weren't attempting to recreate the original, these are just harmonic choices i would have made differently.

Other than that I was way impressed.
