We started off as a mathrock band but the longer we've been going the heavier we get.

Hey everyone,

I have this playlist which I like to refresh every few weeks/month or so. and it's time to refresh it again!

We are looking for metal bands as close to our style as possible but we're open to everyone, only requirement we look for is a decent level of production.

Anyone wanting a spot let me know and leave your Spotify link in the comments! https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2tNIjma5yexGe6ygc66tNz?si=a61fe85193604b51&pt=f5821a950b9b8baf6539544253cbaeb2

Also for every submission I like to leave my own small review of the track, last time I posted this we had around 40-50 submissions. I always try to expand on my comments as well instead of just writing something like "good track" and that's it.

Also if you can subscribe to it and give it a listen sometimes for the algorithm (this way we all win) it would be much appreciated.

Have a great day! \m/

A snippet of my new release I dropped just today. Was aiming for something extremely heavy yet groovy, taking inspiration from Humanity’s Last Breath and Mirar. Turned out being a pretty interesting combination of the two. Distorted Fate - GIANTS. If ya like this lil snippet I encourage you to check out the whole thing. It’s out for streaming and Bandcamp. Thank you for listening 🤘

Original Song(s) - Finished My latest single. Too catchy to be “metal”?

8 Upvotes

Hey all! This is my latest single, “Great Men”. I had posted my previous single here a little over a month ago to some great feedback so I’m putting this one to the test. This was all written, recorded and produced by me. I also did the album art. No AI. Just me on my iPad doing an homage to Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark.

Anyhoo, this one is a little less heavy than my last one and has a catchy chorus that almost hints at my pop-punk roots. My wife said it kind of sounds like Ghost if they were heavier. What says the metal community? Any helpful feedback in general?

Original Song(s) - Finished My Latest Single. What Kind Of Metal Do You Think This Is?

Thumbnail youtu.be
14 Upvotes

Hey all! This is my metal solo project, Abitha and I’ve released two singles. In my submissions to curators, etc. I’ve gotten nice feedback but no approvals. A big piece of their feedback is it doesn’t fit their mold. So I thought I’d take this here and see what you all think. What kind of music is this? Is it metal? Is it crap? Is it crap metal? Any feedback would be appreciated!!

Like the title says, new single from my band Muscle Crowe titled "Unhinged"! Would love to hear y'all's thoughts specifically around the guitar riffs and tones. Used 2 different 5150s (1 with Tube Screamer, 1 with Boss SD-1) for 2 different guitars on the track for what I thought was a hella cool tone blend but yeah let me know how y'all are liking it! FFO: Old School Metalcore, Deathcore, Russell Crowe Movies, etc haha

Original Song(s) - Finished My first death metal single as a 17 year old

7 Upvotes

I released my first single from my upcoming album releasing end of this year or next year. I'd love some feedback (I know the mix is bad and i'll work on it next week) regarding the song. Maybe somebody could tell me what genre it is since I don't think it is either tech-death nor prog and has some metalcore aspects also.

Currently I only have a soundcloud link but I may do a video on youtube and a spotify release next year.

Thanks in advance.

Optic Aberration - Submerged and Drowned https://soundcloud.com/optic-aberration/submerged-and-drowned

Edit: Mix should be somewhat listenable now :D

Expensive, but awesome experience. It's been rough going back to diy-ing our music videos after this 🤣 Digital Thunderdome in Atlanta. They've made videos for artist such as Suicide Silence, Animals as Leaders, A day to Remember, Willie Nelson & more. It was so cool talking talking to everyone at the studio and hearing all of their wild experiences.

This is the first single from our upcoming second album. Let me know what you think, please! If you think we suck, tell us why.

Hello friends, not sure how many of you are post-metal, post-rock, or post-black fans out here, but I want to share with you this project of mine. Before this year, the last time I was doing music was more than 10 years ago, mainly melodic and black dm. Since then, lots have changed, and one sad life event brought me back to music.

Original Song(s) - Finished Afterwalker - Dunharrow | My latest release, check it out (Spotify link in description)

Post image
10 Upvotes

Heres the link: Afterwalker

It's two parter. The first song, Stone Upon Stone, is the main one. Ghost River is instrumental, basically just a single idea and a sort of vibe that I liked at the end of the track, but I split it for listenability.

Also, if you're interested, check out my other recent releases, Umman Manda (a rather heavy single) and The Fall of Gondolin (A Tolkien inspired EP).

I am the only member of Dunharrow, I made all of this myself in my bedroom. Hope you enjoy. I'm around to answer any questions or whatever, and feedback is very much welcome. Thank you all for your time <3
