Post by: Graham C on May 07, 2016, 12:48:48 AM I don't think I know anyone that listens to it either. Being internet based makes it quite a niche thing I guess.

All the better for it I'd say. Although when SlipKnot-Custer came on this morning whilst on the school run, i had to turn it down especially as Mrs Mo was in the car.Title: Re: The sounds of silence... Post by: Graham C on May 07, 2016, 01:05:44 AM Ha ha :D I listen on headphones most of the time so it's not a problem during the day but at home or in the car I tend not to have it on unless I'm by myself.

No opinons? booooo Opinion yah..song least likely to benefit from a nu metal reworking...forgettable. tbf though I'd hate that even if the original wasn't an all time classic of all time mate. Title: Re: The sounds of silence... Post by: EvilPie on May 07, 2016, 03:11:30 PM It sounds good but it's no different to any other reworked original.
It's just karaoke performed in a studio. Displays no real talent other than a good voice. Title: Re: The sounds of silence... Post by: cambridgealex on May 07, 2016, 03:23:00 PM It's kind of impressive...he has a sick proggy/rocky voice but his version is just too huge for what the song is...like the massive climax is on "silent raindrops fell"
Piano sound is kinda weird at the beginning, strings sound really samply and shit. First verse is deliberately quite creepy I think, but kinda cool, and the first verse where he goes up the octave is great but then he gets a bit over-excited 4/10 |
