In December - The Riffs

Following the advice in this topic, I think I'm finally getting somewhere.. While technically not a real song (These are just riffs in no particular order) I thought it's better to post it here instead of in the original tread.
 
Have a listen

    What mainly is missing are vocals..
    I, for one, cannot sing. Anyone out here who can sing, grunt, scream? Others wanting to participate in this project are welcome too!

    Some great riffs here Erik. I also enjoyed Mistaken too... I might be a producer of boring ambient stuff but I am also a fan of all sorts of metal stuff.

    You are, just like me, way to humble and unpretentious. Pleione, Aethra etc are not BORING, they are BONE-SHILLING, and would fit on any death/black melodic album anytime!
     
    Cheers mate

    This is what happens when space-ambience and deathmetal collide. Thought you might like it.

    LOL!
     
    Thanks, I appreciate your kind comments and I am now grinning from ear to ear haha.
     
    Just watching that Eyexist video (song)... Awesome that!
     
    I'm a big fan of Meshuggah so I am well accustomed to shouty vocals.
     
    If you ever fancy a metal/ambient collaboration, give me a shout
     
    cheers

    Sure, one doesn't get an offer like dat every day. Send me your credentials! :-)
     
    On another note, the day before yesterday, I came home from work to an empty house, looks like my gf wasn't so keen on me after all. Too bad she took the entire household with her, including towels and whatnot, so unless I want to keep drying myself with a t-shirt, I'm gonna have to start sorting things out here, so don't expect too much progress in the near futur..


    Cheers

    Some cool riffage going on there.  With a bit of work you could make a song of this.

    I am with Phil on this it could be developed into something interesting.

    Wow!!  It's almost like a metal fugue!!  You need to keep working in that it has a ton of potential!
