This is the best song ever and anyone who says otherwise is a poo pooer hater of art.
Finally!! :aoa: :banana:
So you really are deluded. Goodness me.

I was being sarcastic, man. Do something else. Or better yet: work even harder on your music, but don’t share every little thing that you do. This demo might be a triumph to you, but it’s not even closer to being good enough to share. Keep it to yourself, work on it more. And once you think it’s finished, let it simmer for two weeks and work on it more. And so on.

So far, everything you’ve put up is laughably bad.
I was only joking, mate. The same way you did. What's wrong with that?

I do appreciate your advice about not sharing ''every little thing that you do''. But I tell you what we are not currently doing live performances and all that so the only way to get feedback from people is releasing our demos. Even though it's not ideal in terms of audio quality that's the best we can do right now.

And believe me this is not something we're doing like in a day or two. This song, ''Nocturnal'', is at least one year old.

This could not have been any more perfect unless he said the dog barky song.

Delicious got a new demo out. It's called "Queen Of England''. Hope you guys like it.

https://youtu.be/-2l1WyRbjhQ

====================

This song was based on a film called ‘’King Charles III’’. It seemed an interesting subject to write about.

I would like to clarify this is not a political statement. I've lived in England for a period of my life and have nothing to complain about. It’s just a fun song based on a fictional situation.

Hello everybody. It's been a while. We've got a new song out called ''Desperate''. We tried to give an 80's feel to it, acoustic ballad type of thing.

Anyway, hope you guys enjoy it.

I'd just delete this whole thread if the forum actually had traffic on it and it actually mattered.

I really enjoyed the opening lyrics “You don’t want a Taco Bell.”

Aside from that, I think it’s quite forward-thinking that the singer just does away completely with “keys”, “intonation” and interesting melodies. I also think the song title is a good reflection of the band’s marketing campaign.

Finally, I just want to point out that this thread is my only bridge to the “dislike” button for that band’s YouTube videos, so I’m a bit torn on whether this thread should be nuked or not.

Well, it's less bad than the other things I heard.

It still sucks though. The singing is off key, the guitar solo is from another song or something, but the chord progression ain t that bad

It sounds like someone hitting the 4 Non Blondes on the head real hard, and repeatedly, while their cat tried to play What's Up.

Hey Hokahey, well I would say please do not delete it. It really matters to us to see what people got to say about our music.

That's an improvement, I suppose. Thanks for giving it a try.

I'm feeling in a more positive mood than usual today. So here's something:

Your songs in general (including this one) are not only very poorly recorded and composed, but lack anything remotely attractive. As long as your songs lack a hook, a mood, 'colour'... they will not work. Your songs are completely forgettable, however decent your musicians might be. The singer is almost atrocious, by the way. Get rid of him.

I'm telling you all this from experience. I too had a band, recorded things with them, played gigs, etc. And we sucked donkey balls, but couldn't see it then. So I and several other people here, who are or were musicians, are telling you that all of your current repertoire is terrible. If anyone is congratulating you, they don't mean it. I'd bet that nobody, apart from the band members and the people who have to endure your rehearsals, would remember anything about your songs after listening to them. 100% of people in the real world would immediately skip your song if it appeared on the radio.

You can be congratulated on your persistence, your desire to keep writing and to improve your writing, and the improved quality of your recordings. But rest assured that the final product (i.e., your 'songs') wouldn't qualify for a shitty version of a shitty demo. They are a load of old arse. From 1 to 10, 1 being a monkey sitting on a piano and 10 being a Pink Floyd + The Beatles supergroup in 1967, your band is on a 2. So keep pushing forward, keep practicing, keep writing these pieces of rubbish and soon you'll get to a 3. But it's just as important that you don't pretend you're at a 4.

I can assure you with 100% certainty that it is not a prank nor a 'social experiment'. It's pure lack of talent and a desperate need of approval.
