Hydra (Sample from my upcoming EP) (Prog metal content)

Here's a clip of a song that's still in progress. I hope you like it.

Cheers



P.S. Candy for the first one to guess why I named the song Hydra (game content, two reasons)

Re: Hydra (Sample from my upcoming EP) (Prog metal content)

Some stuff I liked a lot. Nice recording, too. I might have liked to hear the melodic theme fleshed out a little more robustly, and some of the chuggy stuff could be tighter with the drums, but these things did not stop me from listening to it the whole way through.

EDIT: Made it more chuggy

Sounds hard to play, but easy on the ears.

It's cool and heavy. creative too. The snare is a bit too "hard", but the rest is very cool

That is some crazy riffing! I'm not normally into the z-flat type tunings, but I quite liked this. Far more musical than most examples of the genre!

Wow, thanks for the kind words, man. I really appreciate that!


Gonna update the song tomorrow. I've made it a lot tighter, changed few parts here and there and made a first *gasp* solo.
