yay, recorded a new song this weekend, and watch out, IT'S BILINGUAL!!
Oh yeah! Heartbreak in two languages!
check it out! http://www.myspace.com/davidodwyermusic
it's the one called "jamais (To Make You Suffer)"
-
currently downloading it... will give feedback as soon as ive listened to it
if silent screams is anything to go by though, it should be great!
Haha its one of the songs
There's also an album cover and all haha
I think if you listen to the last one (chaos behold part 2) with a nice joint on the go then it makes it more intense
-
http://www.odwyer.net/~dwydav/album.zip Download it and tell me what you think. I've been told that it sounds alot like muse (in the "its a muse rip off" sense) and other people have said it sounded like muse in a good way, I like to think of it as a mix of Muse, Deftones and Mogwai
Feel free to bash the shit out of it if you really don't like it, I've heard it all already
-
Go to: http://www.myspace.com/whoisnumberoneband
for some tuooons!
HAHAHA the first song is exactly the same chord structure as Creep by Radiohead! (well the first cleaning bit at least)
Where bouts in brighton are you?
-
I've gotta say mate the stuff you're doing in Architect is pretty amazing.. do you guys have a demo I can order so that I don't get the beautifully compressed myspace versions of the song? or if you are willing to send them to me for free in a nice bitrate that would be even better
:D:DI swear the beggining piano bit with the synth behind it going in reverse sends shivers down my spine in Sisyphian Gaze
anyways seriously keep it up man, I don't see it as something you'd get on a radio, but its definetly something I would listen to over and over again in my place or on my mp3 player

ah cheers. i should try that.
yeah whispering, and if you really want a harder scream, do a sort of controlled noise much like the noise someone makes in a movie when they die haha where you sort of tense up you vocal chords and it does actually come out as a scream.. the scream you can hear in Authority Issues was actually screaming though
my gf and I split up that night and I felt the need to scream my guts out on something -
My shameless music plug: [ Aurorae ]
The riff for scratched and scorned is awesome! As are the plug in baby feedback sounds in the intro! From one listen Silent Screams, Authority Issues and Chaos Behold 2 were the others that really stood out for me. The intro of silent screams does veer periously close to Hoodoo so well done for beating muse to it (or managing to get inside matt's head whilst he was writing it via a bizarre pyschic out of body experience). It is damn nice all the same.
cool! thanks man!!!
I'm chyecking your stuff out now, I'll give ya some feedback!
EDIT: dude I loove the progression in "the angels are armed"!!!
I like the whole drum n bass thing in furiffery, but the drums dont stand out enough IMO, but I like the effects you have on the guitar that sort of phase flanger thing
Star Gazer is pretty cool as well, But I think it would sound much better slower..
but I love the gentle bits which just all of a sudden become violently heavy and fast bits And Purple Wolf is my fav.. the bluesyness of it is brilliant
this is definitly the one which I enjoyed the most just because of that Organ you have playing in the background All in all greaqt stuff man!! very experimental I would say but it sounds great
what did you use to record? -
It's very Muse, isn't it?
Not bad though, however, your guitar tone seems incredibly thin at points, especially when clean, which detracts from the quality of the entire thing really. How did you record guitar?
The track transitions are fine. I like the intro and outro tracks and the drums at the beginning of Authority Issues.
What did you think of The Angry Dome, by the way?
Also, whilst I'm here, my main band (Studio Tokyo!) is going to be recording a full length album over the next few months, watch this space.
well it may sound like muse, but all those songs were written over a year ago, so if you're refering to Silent Screams sounding like hoodoo then I was there first
I would class it as a bit of Muse, a bit of System of a Down, anda bit of Deftones.. and I was told Queens of the Stoneage and Foo Fighters too, which if its true is quite an honour
I have to record my thrashier songs now
-
Ok I've got 9 songs together.. I still have a few to record, but I wanted to know your impressions on what I've already done..
This is a link to a 43.6 MB file.. it's basically all 9 songs one after the other.. I have done it this way because I want to know what you think of the transitions between songs... it's a sort of concept album so all songs or nearly all fade into each other.
So if anyone is up for it, give this a listen and tell me what you think of the production and music itself. The singing is not great since its all done into the microphone in my mac
and I dont have a great voice either which I suppose doesnt help anyways tell me what you think if you're brave enough to listen through all of it..
Here's the track listing so you can give references to opinions:
1. Chaos Behold (Intro) | 00:00 - 02:46
2. Scratched and Scorned | 02:46 - 06:06
3. Schizophrenic | 06:06 - 11:05
4. Silent Screams | 11:05 - 16:30
5. Cotton Mouth | 16:30 - 19:31
6. Jamalong Disco | 19:31 - 21:12
7. Special | 21:12 - 24:48
8. Authority Issues | 24:48 - 27:27
9. Chaos Behold 2 (outro) | 27:27 - end
Thanks!!
EDIT: derr forgot the link: http://www.odwyer.net/~dwydav/silentscreams.mp3
The album is called Silent Screams

Cool yellowshpere! I'm nbot having any luck getting onto myspace pages today, so it must be the world updating their blogs or something...
I've added the intro we played a few times on the site so check it out!!
I make that fuzzy noise by doing a dive bomb on the whammy and squealing it up form time to time.
Tell me what you think, it would be in that order if we made an album, although Cotton mouth would be near the middle rather than the start
-
I've redone the solo on Scratched and Scorned aswell as a better mix of it all, so tell meh what yer think!!
Yellowsphere, My computer isnt liking myspace, so I can't get any songs to load. do you have anyewhere else you could host them, like Purevolume?
-
thats ace! I really like the first song! did you produce it yourselves then?
-
Nah man, you're really good.
And yeh, I know about the distortion on the vocals, tried it myself on a track and everyone had great fun whispering various things into the mic while I was getting ready to record. We ended up not using any wee whispered bits on the song but kept the distorted vocals and it suits the song quite well.
You can have a listen(if you can be arsed) on our myspace(in my sig) to our stuff, though I'm not sure if you'll like it or not. The one with distorted vocals is called Black Market.
You gonna record any more in the near future?
EDIT: Sorry for the vocals being a bit off in Black Market also, three days of constant recording and singing is not good for the voice...
I know exactly what you mean!!I'll give it a listen if my computer will allow me to look at myspace pages.. it's been acting up on me..
-
Had a wee listen to your stuff dwydav.
The singing is not horrible, you can hold a tune extremely well actually, plus your voice is quite unique too. Nice sounding vocal distortion too.
Really nice sounding guitars on Scratched and Scorned, they're not fizzy or overgained. Most heavy bands on myspace and purevolume tend to have dead fizzy, wasp-in-a-jar type guitar sounds where as here it is pretty much perfect, especially for a home recording.
Bass sounds pretty good actually, drums sound good too.
The songs themselves are actually really good, and the standout for me is Scratched and Scorned, really nice riff and playing excellent overall.
Great stuff, have yourself a cookie.
wow
I was really expecting something like "u sukk n00b" cool man thanks!!all I used for the distortion on scratched and scorned was a metal zone
and my pickups on my black Ibanez have quite a high output, so it makes that gorgeous distortion Yeah I think scratched and scorned is the one I did best of all three, but I like my backup vocals on cotton mouth
and the vocal distortion is on garage band.. and the screaming is very simple to do.. you whisper into a microphone and then stick distortion on it.. thats how Bellamy did the SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOOOOLE bit and how Chris seems to be screaming on Assasin, but no, they're actually whispering
-
Anyone? you dont have to be nice..
-
please?
-
Well here's stuff I wrote with my band.. sadly we never got round to recording any, so this is just what I've managed to do on Garage Band.. Tell me what you think! I used the Whammy to do the bass so it might sound a tad crap at times..

EDIT: oh and the singing is horrible too haha as always
-
how much would you sell it for
your mother's virginity.. and we all know that ain't happening
ay boys?just messing
I think Musecasters should make a replica of the new black manson!!! :'(
-
Need it sending? If yes, MSN or..?
yes please!
msn is grand I'm on there now
cheers!

It was indeed moi! Have been offline a while and only just thought to check and see if there were any new songs d'oh I'm still not bored of the 4 I do have. Through headphones they're epic. Hurry up with that EP!!
Nice start to the website David, one question, can you only have so much audio on tk sites? Just noticed 'Thanks for the Cyanide' is missing..
no no, the .tk sites are just to makes things easier when it comes to the name of the website... so instead of it being http://www.odwyer.net/~dwydav/little%20nightmare/index.html , it's http://www.littlenightmare.tk
the only reason TFTC isnt on there is because it's not on myspace anymore..
-
PUPPYYYY!
Sorry.
Just thought the Little Nightmare fans (Kid Thunder, was it? Using memory here, owch) would like to know there's another recorded song up called White Noise. Which makes 5, woohoo.
Detonate's still my favourite.
right, I told Kid_Thunder a while back that I would make a website for his band (nothing fancy.. just something nicer than a myspace..)
so here it is: http://www.littlenightmare.tk
tell me what you think
-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
It's all backing tracks matey. Always. Matt just got two midi pad mansons specifically so he could play the new tracks by just wiggling his finger around
it's true, he said it himself in an interview no one saw...
-
Sounds more like a seek trem to me. But hey, i could be wrong.
listen to the video on the Zvex ite, I think the seek wah sounds much more like it than the seek trem
:D:D
my gf and I split up that night and I felt the need to scream my guts out on something 
I was really expecting something like "u sukk n00b" cool man thanks!!

I must say I've always loved your music, it's never an "easy" listen, which for me makes it rather interesting, sort of like The Mars Volta don't provide an "easy" listening too if you get what I mean..
Thumbs up dude
