djpretzel Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 What did you think? Post your opinion of this ReMix. Quote
Piracy Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 It sounds very cut and paste.... Definately not my style, and not the best example of what it could have been. Quote
Darangen Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 omG deth metahl; suxxx! Seriously, this is some awesome stuff. Quote
Navi Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 Who is this Dennis fellow again? Oh, sum Vgmixdood. Seriously, though, this is very damn good and continues to impress upon multiple listens. I can't really nitpick. I like it. Looking forward to more Dennis like this. Quote
carpal Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 Hail! A blackish thrash approach is just what this theme needs! Very Haunted/The Crown-esque. Only complaints: The snare is a little too round-sounding, and I think the tone change for the mellow part takes you out of the song a bit too much. Maybe you should have left the distortion the same, but flipped pickup switch back to the neck for that. The riffing is robust throughout and a pleasure to listen to. Good work, man. Quote
The Dennis Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 Looks like if I ever get into remixing, I'll have to change my name to avoid confusion. Ain't my cup of tea normally, but it's a fun remix! Good stuff to play a violent game to. -Dennis- Quote
nomindo Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 the composition is a little chincy(real word?) but overall this is some wicked stuff and a great concept. even if the execution is a wee bit off, its just real fun to listen to, good work, i look forward to more mixes like this one Quote
Virilevocalist Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 I'm glad someone finally made something METAL! If it HAS been done in another remix, I haven't heard it. But this sounds VERY At The Gates. I liked it a lot! Quote
Spastic_Hobo Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 This rules. and I don't even like metal. Quote
EvilRyu38 Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 As a metal fan, (no I dont mean bullshit slipknot etc.) I revel this... Actually... When I was thinking about video game metal this song popped into mind. More Gaming Metal \m/ Quote
maniacodepressif Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 As a metal fan, (no I dont mean bullshit slipknot etc.) I revel this... Why must something that becomes popular becomes suddenly bullshit? Thats the only regard I never liked about metal fans or frustrated musicians that don't do pop. Yeah! Heavy stuff, I like a lot. Very nice playing, great recording. I don't dig the vocals, altough well done! It's just not my cup of tea. Great first song on oc-remix. Quote
Fieari Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 Having a hard time liking this. Not enough melody for my tastes. The lyrics don't seem... uh... sung. At all. I guess that's the style... but I don't like it. Quote
Red Shadow Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 Reminiscent, somewhat, of Dope. And I love Dope's stuff. So this mix kicks ass. Quote
Blood_Hawk Posted February 22, 2005 Posted February 22, 2005 Finally something new and heavy to boot. Fooking awesome. Quote
Sinewav Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Yes! Something new and different for OC Remix! I've been waiting for a long time for some metal screaming on this site. This is exactly what I was hoping for and more. I've got a few mix ideas in my head, but nothing to make it with. Oh well, maybe someday... Quote
IC Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Excellent work here...for the most part. The 'minor' complaint the judges had regarding the vocals is not so 'minor'. The vocals are ridiculously quiet. Sure, metal puts more focus on the thrashing guitars and what have you, but I've NEVER heard a metal song where the vocals are this low. It just doesn't happen. Can't hardly tell he's there half the time. Sad thing is, it would've taken two seconds to fix it. This mix came so close to being incredible, but this one little thing is holding it back. *sigh* Quote
endblink Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 Fuckin' metal. Good job. [=EDIT=] And you guys are Canadian. Hell yes. Quote
Demonicmaster Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 I don't post much on mixes but I felt compelled to post on this one. I have never really been a fan of heavy metal but I grew up with it and I can appreciate it none the less and this is really good. I really would like to hear what thisguy has in store for next time.

BrainCells Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 This is extreme! Be prepared to face it or you'll be crushed by the huge walls of sound! I love every second of it and I'm happy to see this kind of music in OCR. Make more! Quote
Tex Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 This is extreme! Be prepared to face it or you'll be crushed by the huge walls of sound! I love every second of it and I'm happy to see this kind of music in OCR. Make more! That's an nice comment from the man who made "Against The Rest". Nice work by Dennis. I'm not a big fan from crazy/metal/voices. But this work, beat the crazy concept. ^ ^ Quote
Karrde Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Damn, this is a real shock. Me feeling compelled to post twice in like a week. This is sick as hell. This place has really needed an ass kicking piece of metal. This will foot the bill nicely. I'm gonna be playing this a lot. -Karrde- Quote
Drizzy Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 Awesome instrumentals... Get rid of the voice and I'll give ya a cookie. Personally I believe metal can be really good... just the screaming... Quote

Their vocals are quietly in the back though still very raspy and shierky. I downloaded this on VGMix and its very killer. Very reminiscint of At the Gates with a trace of Hypocrisy. It's good to see variety on the site. Quote
