Mini-Review The Song Above You

Howard the Duck · 02-09-2012, 01:25 AM

the opening bars of the riff sounds promising, then it just goes nowhere, even the "breakdown" is quite boring, basically a speeded-up version of the main riff. it's like the Evanescence of stoner/doom - 3.5/10

(yes, it's only 20 seconds long)

7.5/10 I absolutely loved the bass in this and the drums that followed the main riff. However, I just didn't like how the vocals meshed with the music. It's not that I didn't like the vocals per say, but there was just something about it that didn't sit right with me. Still a very good song.

Excellent, I burnt myself out on the first ep but haven't gotten around to listening to the second yet, This track makes me want to rectify that, like now. 9/10

the beat is hypnotic and mesmerising, the flow is very good, i like his deep voice, but i generally find the video itself more engaging - 7/10

edit - meant as a reply to Thom Yorke's post before i got ninja'd

Not the biggest Fleet Foxes fan to be honest but I do enjoy that track. It's nice and short, with good instrumentation. 7/10

Pretty catchy song dude, not really my favourite style of pop. I guess it's slightly too R'n B for me. Still pretty cool though. 6/10
