Hello People!

My name is Pitty666 and i am from (Not so doomed) Germany

I started playing guitar in 2003. I've learned it on my own but mostly just for fun and nothing special. I Quickly came into a point that i didn't see any progress or good sounding stuff. So i let my guitar rest for good 16 years. Then In 2019, some dark strange spirits came over me. My dedication for Metal Music was grown to such an high level, that i decided to pick up my guitar again.

I turned my old B.C. Rich Warlock Speedloader into a custom made Warlock, with a brand new Floyd Rose and regular tuning mechanics. I took my old 5 Watt Marshall amp by side and finally joined the "Orange Club" with the 15 Watt Rocker 15 combo amp. The Sound was awesome but all i know was playing by tabs. I wanted to play my own music.I wanted to show the music, that is in my head and share the feelings it delivers to me with other people.  So i decided to learn how music is made and all about Scales Shapes and Modes. I was looking for the dark stuff u know....

For recording i've ordered the basic kit for 2019 times i think:

- Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

-SHURE SM57 mic

-Mackie CR4 speaker

I work with Cubase 5 on Windows 10 

 

So far..

I hope to find some People here to have a talk about making/recording music on an basic and simple level. 

There is one Track on Youtube i've made. i will drop the link, in the right corner of this forum soon.

If you have some music to share, you're welcome to start a thread for it in the "Promote Yourself" section. As far as  the recording and mixing process goes, I'm not a professional but I may be able to help if you have a question about something. The stuff I write usually winds up being death metal when I'm by myself, but I'm also currently playing bass in a sort of noise rock/mathcore band and guitar in a progressive black metal group. Most of the music I've been part of is in the links in my signature.

Hi Balor! \m/ 

My No1. Band is Slipknot . I went to 10+ Gigs and listen to them for good 19 years now.  They were 

always a special thing to me. But next to Slipknot i was listening to all the popular bands at that time. Korn, Limp Bizkit, Rammstein, Machine Head,

Through the years i discovered so much more good music by visiting huge Festivals and Gigs. So today i listen to a whole bunch of metal styles. It goes from Ghost to Cannibal Corpse XD

I think it is the way a band uses the  guitars, that makes me love them or not. But today i definitely got an addiction to extreme Metal and Doom Metal.

I Love:

Doom, Stoner, Deathmetal, Blackmetal, Goremetal

Bands:

- Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats ( highly recommended), Black Sabbath, Beastmaker, The Order of Israfel, Soundgarden, Red Fang, Church of Misery, Cannibal Corpse, Dimmu Borgir, Hatebreed, and Turbonegro XD

But also the good classic Stuff :

Status Quo, Jimi, CCR, The Hollies, Jefferson Airplane,...

There are sooo much more bands i love but i can't tipe them all down here :-)

Your signature tells me, you also love dark hypnotic music ;-) am i right?

You definitely got it FatherAlabaster \m/ 

I am listening to the bands in your signature right now and i have to say that Shiro-Ishii - Cypresses and Pines has got the best Breakdown i've heard in 2020 \m/ 

Your speed level is awesome and you create this death Metal atmosphere for 100% . If you find some time trough the next days i would appreciate it, if you could tell me something about scales and shapes,you use for your music. 

Thank you, i will use the Promote Section for it. Hopefully the community here is open for Beginners ^^

So far i'm good with Cubase 5. I take midi drum files because i can't play drums XD. Recording with mic or direct Interface with VST.

The Sound i got so far i would say is 60% good for me. I definitely know,that something is missing. But i practice every day to get faster and more precise.

    • Sacred Reich "Awakening"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Whichever tier of thrash metal you consigned Sacred Reich back in the 80's/90's they still had their moments.  "Ignorance" & "Surf Nicaragura" did a great job of establishing the band, whereas "The American Way" just got a little to comfortable and accessible (the title track grates nowadays) for my ears.  A couple more records better left forgotten about and then nothing for twenty three years.  2019 alone has now seen three releases from Phil Rind and co.  A live EP, a split EP with Iron Reagan and now a full length.

      Notable addition to the ranks for the current throng of releases is former Machine Head sticksman, Dave McClean.  Love or hate Machine Head, McClean is a more than capable drummer and his presence here is felt from the off with the opening and title track kicking things off with some real gusto.  'Divide & Conquer' and 'Salvation' muddle along nicely, never quite reaching any quality that would make my balls tingle but comfortable enough.  The looming build to 'Manifest Reality' delivers a real punch when the song starts proper.  Frenzied riffs and drums with shots of lead work to hold the interest.


      There's a problem already though (I know, I am such a fucking mood hoover).  I don't like Phil's vocals.  I never had if I am being honest.  The aggression to them seems a little forced even when they are at their best on tracks like 'Manifest Reality'.  When he tries to sing it just feels weak though ('Salvation') and tracks lose real punch.  Give him a riffy number such as 'Killing Machine' and he is fine with the Reich engine (probably a poor choice of phrase) up in sixth gear.  For every thrashy riff there's a fair share of rock edged, local bar act rhythm aplenty too.

      Let's not poo-poo proceedings though, because overall I actually enjoy "Awakening".  It is stacked full of catchy riffs that are sticky on the old ears.  Whilst not as raw as perhaps the - brilliant - artwork suggests with its black and white, tattoo flash sheet style design it is enjoyable enough.  Yes, 'Death Valley' & 'Something to Believe' have no place here, saved only by Arnett and Radziwill's lead work but 'Revolution' is a fucking 80's thrash heyday throwback to the extent that if you turn the TV on during it you might catch a new episode of Cheers!

    • Overkill "The Wings of War"

      MacabreEternal posted a blog entry in Album Reviews,

      Full length number 19 from overkill certainly makes a splash in the energy stakes, I mean there's some modern thrash bands that are a good two decades younger than Overkill who can only hope to achieve the levels of spunk that New Jersey's finest produce here.  That in itself is an achievement, for a band of Overkill's stature and reputation to be able to still sound relevant four decades into their career is no mean feat.  Even in the albums weaker moments it never gets redundant and the energy levels remain high.  There's a real sense of a band in a state of some renewed vigour, helped in no small part by the addition of Jason Bittner on drums.  The former Flotsam & Jetsam skinsman is nothing short of superb throughout "The Wings of War" and seems to have squeezed a little extra out of the rest of his peers.

      The album kicks of with a great build to opening track "Last Man Standing" and for the first 4 tracks of the album the Overkill crew stomp, bash and groove their way to a solid level of consistency.  The lead work is of particular note and Blitz sounds as sneery and scathing as ever.  The album is well produced and mixed too with all parts of the thrash machine audible as the five piece hammer away at your skull with the usual blend of chugging riffs and infectious anthems.  


      There are weak moments as mentioned but they are more a victim of how good the strong tracks are.  In it's own right "Distortion" is a solid enough - if not slightly varied a journey from the last offering - but it just doesn't stand up well against a "Bat Shit Crazy" or a "Head of a Pin".  As the album draws to a close you get the increasing impression that the last few tracks are rescued really by some great solos and stomping skin work which is a shame because trimming of a couple of tracks may have made this less obvious.
