CRITS.
1. The Dog Obeys & PTizzle - Sabotage (Beastie Boys cover)
I love the overall SOUND you achieved with this. It's perfect. And PTizzle, you executed the vocals REALLY well. As always, very professional sounding. Awesome song. My little brother walked in for two seconds and left asking "Is that Beastie Boys?" Very faithful.
2. Erave - All Star (Smash Mouth cover)
I LOVE the idea of this. Pretty original, and it's done very well. I love the ending. A bit messy, obviously intentionally, but a bit hard to listen to.
3. Mellotron Cowboy - Achy Breaky Heart (Billy Ray Cyrus cover)
Ahahaha... This is so dramatic and epic for Achy Breaky Heart. The harmonies on the first chorus are a bit off. The trumpet fits seamlessly, that's a nice touch. The high end of the drums is a bit loud. With any song that you drastically lower the tempo on, the song drags. The Xylophone and bass help to lessen that, but it's inevitable. Couch Montana.
4. Harry Manback & Magma King - Mr. Jones and Me (Counting Crows cover)
I ADORE the original of this song, and this isn't too bad. It would be just a decent cover, but the guitar at the very end is FANTASTIC. Fits perfectly. Not bad.
5. ATARI - Creep (Radiohead cover)
I don't like the reverb on your vocals. But as always, your voice is amazing. The guitar sound is PERFECT. This sounds very full. I can't stop thinking about Ned singing this chorus in South Park, though. (I'm a wieeener...) Dude. Your voice is incredible during the breakdown. And the guitar working against that is amazing. Nearly flawless man. This is really, really impressive. Well done. The highlight track so far.
6. Marlon Brando - Government Sponsored Teen Outreach Program (Nirvana cover)
Greatest intro to a song ever. Of all time. Ever. Ultimate Party Machine. Hold everything! I love the strings playing the lead. That works pretty well. Loses it's momentum pretty quickly though. The rest of the song just drags.
7. Kaworu - Good Riddance (Time of Your life) (Green Day cover)
Dark-Ambient. This is pretty dark man, even darker with that bright and happy synth that comes in(as bizarre as that sounds...). You really took this song and made it your own. Well done, man.
8. couch - Buddy Holly (Weezer cover)
Whoa. Was not expecting this. This is so... Haunting. Who knew this song would sound so good arranged like this? Phenomenal sound. I'm floored, really. The arrangement is really, really well done. Gold medal for taking a timeless song and twisting it into something completely different, yet totally recognizable. For some reason I have visions of 1940 Chicago. Hmm.. I want the sheet music for this. I'm seriously. I want the sheet music for this. Wonderful job. A++++.
9. ase - Iris (Goo Goo Dolls cover)
Apparently people don't like Goo Goo Dolls. It's beyond me, because it's pretty well crafted pop-music. Maybe the guy is douche? Anyways. The guitar sound is perfect. Your voice really suits this song! I love the drums during the chorus. Also, I thought you were a chick for as long as you've been here up until like a month ago. I need answers. I love the ending with the fade out of the drums first.
10. Mellotron Cowboy - Nothing Compares 2 U (Sinéad O'Connor cover)
I love the damp sound of the recording. And is that you beatboxing? Haha. Fantastic. This is really, really awesome. It's very raw, and I love that.
11. ATARI & Harry Manback - Shine (Collective Soul cover)
The guitar tone is perfect. Ouch. Your "Whoa's" sound out of place. The hi-hat is really loud during the solo. Nice job on the solo man. Flawless. A decent cover. Very nice guitar work.
12. where is my spaceship - Creep (Radiohead cover)
Nicely done. As always. It's SO DRAMATIC!!! Ahaha. But seriously. Very good. The breakdown is really nice.
Everyone! Nicely done! Congrats, seriously! Everyone did a great job and this runs together very, very well. Keep it up, hope to join you for the next Troubadours album.
