Stone Soup Dispute

might I suggest in your quest for the quintessential Nexion sound and style, to focus on listening and watching to non metal musical and art influences..

Bring something else into the tent!

We should all take this advice BTW

That is absolutely first class advice. That is exactly why it was such an eye opener for me when I got into Dave Davidson and Kiko Loureiro. Dave being a Berkley jazz graduate playing death metal is just ...wow. I mean, voice lead riffs with Alt7 and b13 chords? Absolutely not death metal and yet he makes it work. And then Kiko, well... He's one of the most complete players around. I regularly spend some time trying to dissect his playing from his latin/jazz and also his latest album. I know it's not showing (yet) but just amazing how many different styles and influences he can pack into his songs and make it coherent .

I've come to find that the real greats are not "stylistacally pure" so to say. They have an amalgamation of sometimes wildly different stuff which add up to being ther sound.

Well, you idolize Cobain, so I think we can offer you a "compassionate pass"... LOL

Visually it looks pretty complicated but when you pay attention the solo sounds like the same pattern and notes played in different positions, almost like call and response but fall short.

Definitely not something that sinks in your mind - phrase that you can recall and sing in your head 30 years later, like the solo to Sweet Child or Smoke on the Water for example.

The execution looks pretty solid for first take.

Noone was more enraged than Cobain.

[Demanic]

Rollins was far more enraged back then.

No way.

It's not in me in to ****-talk other players. But yeah brutally honest you said. Bottom line...it' s well played but imo It's a bit too rigid/structured/practiced sounding. I think what it lacks in spontaneity/individuality,/memorability it makes up for in nice execution (which is pretty good). But as others have mentioned it's a bit generic sounding and you need to add some flow & some of your own playing nuances to it to make it stand out and really own it

[Phantasmagoria]

You should start a duo with Phantasmagoria.

Why not? Seemed to work for you and your pet chimp.

Sucks that he's alway's showing you up with his killer chops tho'..
