going to do an album based on the plagues of Egypt. this is part one. i have tried so hard on this to mix it and get a balance...James, Danni and all you others will tell me how well i have fared. Any dissonance is intentional. Thanks for the listen/comments!

I liked everything but the vocal styling... for me, it ruined the soup...
I really enjoyed the first part though...

I like whats going on with the music but something doesn't sound right in the mix , I agree with vocals not my cup of tea sorry but I
understand thats what the metal blood thirsty kids like today .
They go to these heavy metal concerts and beat each other up then end up in the ER after the concert and they call that FUN !LOL

Muahahaha... nice. I like the vocals. They work well with the overall song. I agree with james though, there is something off with the mix. It sounds like encoding problems. Did you upload a wave or an MP3?

Hi Mark, nice to hear a new track from you.

Love the intro and the buildup to the guitars. I've heard you sing on tracks like this before so was expecting them vocals.

The mix sounded a little muffled on speakers, so I popped the headphones on and it sounded much better. Did you mix on headphones by any chance?

The music is superb.

Mark.

It was my favorite from you, but I must reluctantly agree with Mr. Tanton. But at the same time, I know this is your style, so I try to keep an open mind.

Hey Mark

I particularly like the build-up in this, it fits the 'Egyptian' theme to a tee.

And some intense and awesome guitar riffage as always mucker.

I note this is the first of a series of tunes for an album, and LOL I sense you're in the mood for a Dream of Gerontius style assault! I'm certainly looking forward to the trip
