EsteveCorbera - Diversio Guitarrera Fusion ? The final version is way better sonically speaking than the first ones : congratulations ! The originality of the submission cannot be denied but I would consider it borderline off-topic. The use of guitars feel forced and doesn't seem to fit any kind of...

Notes I've taken, in no particular order becsei_gyorgy An interesting including extreme vocals. Maybe adding the lyrics somewhere could be helpful ? Anyway, the mix of synthesizer and "guitars" is interesting and reminds me somewhat of Deathstars. The vocals have a strong reverb (already p...
