shootingstar Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) I´m a type of person in our band that many consider as very "axl"I made a song. First it was more metal. Then it got slower with more feeling until it ended up as almost a ballad with piano.It´s not that I prefer ballads, but in my opinion this song fits better as a ballad.One of my bandmates prefer it more heavy, but he also prefer that music in general.I told him that he can´t always let his princips limit us as a band and that he can´t hear the songs potential openminded. He just want to do everything in is way heavy, if it fits or not.So listen to those two versions and then bash me for being an Axl asshole This is My versionIt´s shitty recorded compared to the bands version which is recorded in a real studio.But what do you think...?

Riie Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) Whats the name of your band? Ohh and are you the singer? Edited August 28, 2006 by Riie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingstar Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) Yes, I´m the singer I also play guitar a little..I´m not that bad but won´t consider myself as a gutarist. The lyrics are just temporary, isn´t about anything special. Sang something to get an idea of how the song would work out.Don´t get me wrong, I love my band but sometimes we struggle at different directions. Can be good also..Qualified Truth is our name. The studio version were recorded where u live(Umeå) if I´m not misstaken.Got a lot of old classmates there, and there´s a bunch of people who actuallt listen to us over there.EDIT* It was recorded at "MUSIKANTEN" if that sound familiar?

Hope I made it work.Oh, and thanks I prefer band version..I actually had a major impact in both versions. What I called the "band version" was the version the band prefered. The first (original version) i made were even more metal then the "band version" but we havn´t recorded it God, It would take years for me or my band to make an album(as long as I´m in it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronaldo9 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I liked both versions, but I'm going to have to side with the band on this one. I don't know, I just didn't feel like that was the type of song to be made into a ballad. You know what I'm saying? But on a side note, nice voice.

GivenToFly Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 got it nowthe slow version is also good, but you cannot expect too much from a raw studio demothe "band's" version still sems better in the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingstar Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) The dilemma is that I like the vocals on the shitty demo better. On the band version they wer cind a boring. And not to lose the feeling with those vocals I needed to slow it down. When I slowed it down the music didn´t fit, so I changed the whole song as an experiment. But the song on the slower version is more drifty so it compensate the slower speed. But our guitarist couldn´t handle that song at slower(yes, slower) speed and keep the style so I made a piano version of it instead. I made a few suggestions but he didn´t baught it so... I´m in a band This whole song is a dilemma. Edited August 28, 2006 by shootingstar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
