Lightshow - Mindset - Closer to the Ground - Kill - Know Me
What real people think of "Closer to the Ground" from all over the world at garageband.com. Awesome! This is a f*****g great song. Harmony vocals are absolutely killer, arrangement, instrumentation, production are all there. I know the GB guidelines say to be "constructive" in either praise or criticism, but sorry guys not this time--you gotta know you're on to something really exceptional here. Best of luck and please make sure to get this into the hands of everyone you possibly can. This should be on the radio, now! Fun truck games, monster truck games for kids, flash racing. Reviewed by: 123ll from New York Could hear this on the radio! Great Production. Nice guitar work. Vocals sound great, mix is right on.... - AAAs Seattle, Washington Good Sound This would make a great theme song for a tv series - it has that sort of feel to it. I like the vocals and melody. It is a very pleasant piece. Don't get the idea that I think it is trite or anything like that, it's just fun to hear. If you keep this stuff up I think you could become famous - not Beatles famous, but certainly, Tom Petty famous... Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Lyrics, Melody, Beat - swshurts Bowling Green, Ohio Industry ready. Your vocals were pretty good. Everything sounded great. Guitars complemented each other well with their different parts. Sounds a lot like top 40 rock, so it has some industry potential. Melody was catchy. - Kakodkar Chicago, Illinois Theo Fleury would love this! This sounds like a professionally recorded song. Well done. The melody is pretty darn good, actually. I didn't expect something with so much TUNE to it. Most bands of this ilk couldn't string together a likeable melody if their daddies depended on it. But you have risen above the cak and have overcome! Well done! The vocals themselves are very well done - nice vibrato! The band sounds very tight. I diggitty-dig this song! shellac manicure MN Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Production, Melody - FabClaxton Oshawa, Ontario, Canada Poonice Good, catchy. I like the vocals and guitar. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Production, Lyrics - FallofEve Suffield, Connecticut I like the beat, vocals I like the beat, it's cool. The vocals are very strong. The overall arrangement is solid. - sokrates13 New York Harmonies beat real audio shock!!! Quite professional recording, which is always a plus in my view. it's pretty cool the way the harmonies come in right at the kick off! it rocks!! good quality radio stuff. This is a comment that you'll see a lot of in my reviews because if we're successful at that then we're pretty much guaranteed success elsewhere. It's hard for me to hear everything that's being sung because of the real peice of crap that is Real Audio, but it sounds great Ovulation Tests Extra Credit: Production, Melody Special Award: Most Rocking Track - geeklove Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom great production I needed to turn my volume down when I listened to your song, that's a good sign for your recording quality. Good vocals and melody. I liked the ending 'now I found my way' Good job! Extra Credit: Production, Melody - Red7s Southern, California Competent describes this one. A very strong song melodically, although I'm not sure I'm into this modern rock alternative sound vocally (I like Motorhead). Nonetheless, the music is strong. Reminds me a little of Whipping Boy. Production is low budget sounding, but people who judge songs based on the production are jerks. A very competent alternative rawk song. - thechurchcat Toronto, Ontario, Canada Really sweet track. Nice sound on the guitars. Drums sound great, well mic'd, well played. wow, great vocals, wish it was a bit easier to understand the lyrics, raise the volume in the mix. Great use of background vocals. I could easily hear this stuff on the radio. Nice breaks, good arrangement. Flows very nicely. Overall, an excellent song. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Production Special Award: Most Rocking Track - TheShortlongs Toronto, Ontario, Canada Notkarn Sound is pretty cool, vocals nice, melody sweet. - NightKarnation Jacksonville, Florida Wonderfully played through This song has a sappy feel to it. Kinda sounds like something creed would be playing. The vocals are good and so is the overal sound of the song. you guys should be very proud of yourself for creating such a beautifully performed song. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Production, Lyrics, Melody, Beat, Mood Special Award: Coolest Chill-Out Track - iamsocool Surrey, British Columbia, Canada hooray but not today nice sound, hope the vocals come out nice. okay. not too bad. i think the whole song should have been the intro part. today i'm depressed & just wanted to hear slow bedroom stuff. - yrsweetdisaster Atlanta, Georgia hooky hella hooky vocal melodies. i don't know if i care for how the vocals are treated in the mix... maybe its the real player, but its sounding like that Cher harmonizer thing. overall sound is well-produced rock. good work. - dander Mountain View, California Get Their Number. Everything about this was great. The vocal was on and the harmony in the chorus worked well. The drummer mixed it up alot which kept it moving. The guitars were well executed even if they did seem a bit "heavy" for an upbeat song. Try to "lighten up" and I think it'll all go together. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Production, Melody, Beat - Rockin_CAK Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio College Music, eh? Still, not Bad! Sounds like college band music to me. Lotsa vibrato and such. Still, the verses are really cool and the changes actually go somewhere. Bridge sounds pretty cool. I'm not much for the warbly shaky voice thing, but it works for this song. Over all, this is just not my genre, but it sounds like good music nonetheless. - GCExile Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Nice Song Good job here with this song, very very radio friendly. Great vocals, solid music, great sound. It has a alternative pop sound to it that I could see getting some airplay. Good job. - Tdmgr Hilo, Hawaii good melody. the drums sounded too busy. the electic guitar ame out of no where. i didn't think it fit at first but the more i listened i liked it. - MikeRobb Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Soft, loud and purty. A catchy song with memorable vocal melodies. Well produced and executed. Reminiscent of Train and alot of other MOR alternative bands. Extra Credit: Production - Pasagiannis New York fuel meets live... great pop rock! a well produced track. Extra Credit: Production Special Award: Best Feel Good Track - acasteel7221 San Francisco, California This song will go somewhere I really liked the melody in this song. This is the first one im putting on my playlist and follow the band. You guys rock. The vocals are pretty good. Real Player always takes some sound quality away, but I'm sure this album will be a hit someday. -zaCh- Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Sequencer/Effects Programming, Production, Lyrics, Melody, Beat, Mood - Zachz22 Erie, Pennsylvania drumtacular the drum intro was very cool. you're lucky to have a good drummer. the vocals are great. good work on the harmony. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums - capt_tulip Springfield, Missouri Cool This is a pretty cool song, like the intro, the vocals are pretty good. Could be just a little bit tighter but they're good. Melody is nice and strong which makes for a good sound. Could have a little better recording, that would make this song kick ass! GREAT SONG! I REALLY LIKE IT! Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Beat Special Award: Best Potential Movie Soundtrack - revolverv4 Ottawa, Ontario, Canada sounds good i like the melody in the intro a lot. the production is good. the vocal harmonies sound good. i like it a lot. Extra Credit: Guitars, Production, Melody - ForMusic San Diego, California awesome Very good production. Good vocals. I especially enjoyed the drums. Intelligent and tasteful music. Great job guys. - marcspag Carlsbad, California An optimistic Maynard cool begining cadence! nice chord progression. great harmonies! nice Bridge. your drummer is smoking! The singer reminds me of Maynard from TOOL, but not the music. Can't quite pinpoint who they sound like. that's always a good thing. It's Radiofriendly, yet original enough to be cool. right on guys! Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Drums 5 and no point more! Sound is perfect! Very professional. Vocal are stunning. Melody is cool. One of my favs here so far. Powerful rock song i enjoyed very much. there is not much to critisize, seems to be a complete rock song yet. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Production - geri130 Tirschenreuth, Bavaria, Germany Crashing Down this is an awesome song. The melody is a good hook that keeps the listener hooked into the song. I really like the drums in the begining and ending on that was just brilliant also its like a song that goes full circle. Beautiful. - BlindAmerica Aurora, Colorado Love this song/definatly hit potencial Love the vocals, very beautiful sound with the guitar-could have lasted longer Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Melody - Jayling98 Lake Forest, California radio friendly remind me of U2 in the intro.the voice in radio friendly ,good groove you guys can only get better... like to hear more... - chromeozone Los Angeles, California K-Rock worthy.. Sounds like your typical K-rock band.. Vocals are nice and in tune.. I would perfer a more raw/sloppy/punchy/grungy sound with the rhythm Guitars.. The ending could be a little better, sounds weak for such a powerful song... Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Production - FLIPZ Sherman Oaks, California Good job !!!! Good job on the vocals . Sounds like blues travellers but only more clear voice and younger! And of course the melody is very supporting which is great. Good Job! Very nice, very very nice!! I liked your sound Extra Credit: Melody - cbproject Burlington, Vermont Best song I have reviewed today! Love it...best song I have reviewed today...took me only 10 seconds that I knew I was going to like it. Great lyrics and drums. I like the way the song shifts gears throughout...great sign of a good band. Guitars are solid...still waiting for the solo...there is annoying sound coming from the drums near the end...sounds like the drummer is hitting a jar of rocks? :) Vocals are good...at first I wanted them to be more hard edge, but for this song they were great. Song was very catchy...the ending can be a bit smoother. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Lyrics, Melody Special Award: Most Rocking Track - andybeard4692 Gaithersburg, Maryland yeah.... Great band! Good energy right from the start with some interesting drum and bass at the beginning. The lead vocals are spot on, with tight harmonies backing them up. From what I can hear on this crappy audio stream the production seems to be pretty good and the track has been well recorded - makes a pleasant change from a lot of stuff you get to review on gb.com!! It would have been nice to hear some echo on the snare occasionally - I reckon it would have enhanced the groove a little, but all in all a really good song by a band who sound like they're having a lot of fun. Keep on keeping on... Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Bass, Lyrics, Melody, Beat - Kulu Basingstoke, Hampshire, United Kingdom give it a thumbs up likes: Feelies-style chiming guitar work, harmonizing, the ending (that's a good thing). dislikes- not many- drums seem a little over the top, (probably not your problem, I'm just getting old) good work Extra Credit: Guitars, Production - southpawdesign Flat Rock, North Carolina Weezer should sound so good. Great song. OMG, that's a great song. I'm seriously gonna burn that for my girlfriend. I can't be critical, because this is really a great song. wow. extra credit in all catagories. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Production, Lyrics, Melody, Beat, Mood - TaintSmasher Akron, Ohio awsome arrangements.... vocals sound very good, guitar work is also a high point. drums come throu very well. great mix and production... its all right.melody is definatly good. catchy tune guys, keep it up. Extra Credit: Guitars, Drums, Production, Melody, Mood - lespaultxldo Laredo, Texas Good Nice melodic rock. Good production. Cool energies, and guitar work. The vocals are well sung and in tune. Someone here has a good ear for harmonies, though I would appreciate some dessonance in the harmonies, to stimulate the ear. Just my view though... Overall good. Good luck! - PurpleWage Tel Aviv, Israel Good song I like the cool beginning. song sounds decent, good melodies and sweet guitars! Extra Credit: Guitars, Melody Special Award: Best Potential Movie Soundtrack - LocalFool Norton, Massachusetts This one's heading for the top. Man, you guys should have been signed already! The guitar intro grabbed me in right away, and I was stunned by the vocals -- great harmonies, and you have a good voice. I hope this song does really well. It's catchy and the sound should have a wide appeal. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Melody Special Award: Best Feel Good Track - moonwalker Palmerston North, Manawatu It's a-LIVE The vocals are good, melodic, but it reminds me of Live too much. The melody is cool, really like the begining part best. Good drum/guitar harmony. Good drumming in general. The sound is good, good production. Polished a little too much for my taste though. - Plaidman Kimberly, Wisconsin Mixed blessing Cool beat right from the start. I like the chord progression and the overlapping guitar parts. It sounds like really good pop. So on to the review. Great singing. Great guitar playing. Still cranking out a great beat in the drums. The bass is tight to the drums like it should be. You have a chance at making it in this world of anything different is bad. - Frostwriter Ann Arbor, Michigan Awesome intro... Well...its not that I dont like this song...just not really my style...a little too poppy for me...the singer has a great voice and the guitarist and drummer are very very good...ahhh...theres the bass...hes good too...the harmonies are real cool, though I would recommend the singer use a little vibrato maybe...the sound was incredible....am very jealous...take care...you will go far Extra Credit: Guitars, Drums, Bass, Production, Melody, Beat - LeifAdams Pendleton, Oregon good song good track, even better production. The vocals are good, some nice harmonies too. The melody is very nice in places and pretty good overall. I like the sound-it's actually kind of original, almost hard pop!! Good sound overall and I did like the drumming. Extra Credit: Drums, Production - palebluedot Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Effective Wow, it must be my lucky night, because I get four decent tunes in a row. The vocals and the melody are engaging and I really like the bass undertow that pushes this song along. Very nice outro. There isn't a lot I can really single out here, but it is an effective tune that just lulls you in with a good hook. Nice job. - darkheartalarm Rochester, New York tight song cool drum beat. kinda reminds me of the drums from Tom Petty's "don't come around here no more". but the song totally goes in a different direction. Nice Harmony. very tight song. good guitar sounds. Extra Credit: Guitars, Production - TooSmallShoes Austin, Texas
