[22reepicheep]

nice little touch there at the end, which is where I begin to write my compliments to your band. I was mezmerized at times, and felt familiarity enough at other points in the raging sound, to have really enjoyed it.

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

[robjjad]

Sorry guys, don't like this at all. It sounds very outdated like I have heard this so many other times before. I would have liked this much more several years ago. You guys are talented and obviously a lot of people like it. It's just not for me though, keep it up though! Maybe I will see you guys at Warped sometime soon

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@robjjad Hey, no worries man, we will be recording professionally in April so please stay tuned and hopefully we can catch your ear a little better :) But please stay tuned and we are actually trying out for the Las Cruses NM Warped this year, so it would mean a lot if you helped out with votes :)

[tomrey5]

i like the instrumentals....the singing is flats at spots/sounds kinda whiny...i like the screaming a lot though

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@tomrey5 Thanks :) we will be getting professional recordings in april so stay tuned and in the meantime please vote for us to play Warped Tour this year :)

[VampireGunner]

Please dont pull an Andy Sixx (no comment anyone -_-") And forget about the channel. Which I know you probably wouldnt but you know. Band-Future Fear and all that.

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@VampireGunner Oh alright :) yeah i try not to make ppl mad by sending stuff again, but im glad you like us and that you are staying tuned, we will be going to the studio in April so we will have new material for everyone plus a lot of other amazing news so please stay tuned and please help spread the word :)

[justine1307]

Hi there great first demo. Should come out well in the studio when professionally done they will iron out the flat bits and level it all. I must be honest not my type of stuff although I love singing heavy metal. ( my pro songs are not my choice just sing whatever Im asked to etc as long as i get paid lol) good luck for the future jusx

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@justine1307 Thank you soo much, that means a lot :) we hope to get our new stuff posted soon after the studio in April, so keep checking back :)

[TheFireball100]

The music is pretty cool! the singing is flat sometimes. i don't understand what you are saying - could you post the lyrics for your songs when you professionally get recorded as you said you would? I like the screaming and growling. I mean it sounds great.

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@TheFireball100 Thanks :) we are going to the studio in April so we will have this song professionally done as well as a few others, if you go to our facebook page under notes we have the lyrics to this song.

[ClassicaltoMetal]

iT'S FUNNY BECAUSE OUR DRUMMERS UNCLE IS jOHN tRAVOLTA

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@ClassicaltoMetal Hahahaha thats awesome! :)

[harrisoneatsairplane]

Everything is great except the singing, which is pretty rough in some areas. 

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@harrisoneatsairplane Thanks :) we will be getting professionally recorded in April so keep checking back and we should have the new songs up after that.

[lordanati]

Imo this sounds like Asking Alexandria, atleast singer :p

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@lordanati Hahaha thanks :) we are trying to go for our own sound, so hopefully after the studio in April it will be something you've never heard before :)

[lordanati]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 Well, I'm definetily gonna start following your songs :)

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@gothickenshin666 Hahaha alright i will :) yeah i have 2 accounts hahaha

[exhalechik91]

This sounds AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@exhalechik91 Thank you :)

[exhalechik91]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 does this mean I can steal/download this song and put it on my zune??

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@exhalechik91 Of course :) you can download it free off Purevolume :) and also i think you should cover it, if you go to out FB page and click notes it has the lyrics and meaning of the song.

[exhalechik91]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 I'll look up the lyrics but it will be hard to cover this song alone because it sounds like it has multiple vocalists (of course we could always do it together)... but if you guys ever play in Pensacola, Florida HIT ME UP YO!

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@exhalechik91 Yeah i overlap our clean vocalist a lot, and yeah after we go to the studio in April we are gonna try to line up some tours, so we will definitly try to get to Florida and ill definitly hit you up :)

[MrViciousways]

geeennneric...?? lol

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@JonahS777 Thank you! :)

[mothyrox]

the music sounds great but the clean vocals are far to "emoish" for me...

but besides of that it sounds really awesome =)

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mothyrox Hey thanks! Glad you liked it, i hope we can still keep you interested with our new songs.

[mothyrox]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 haha only if you can make the cleans sound less emo and more masculine ;)

@jtleabo99 Thank you! that really means a lot, and the screams will be more ba after April once we record our other songs :)

[jtleabo99]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 Haha well I don't believe thats too possible, they are already INSANE man!

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@jtleabo99 Hahahaha :) well just stay tuned and ill let you be the judge, i hope you'll like it.

[MrBenGarcia]

It's really good man! (: This sounds sick! The cleans are really good and the screams are nice and brutal lol. Just needs better sound quality on the vocals and the band in general and I bet this track will be phenomenal.

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@MrBenGarcia Thank you, that really means a lot :) we are going to get professional recordings in April so stay tuned for those and i hope you enjoy them when they come out.

[MrRyanmassacre]

[mudvaynebass1]

I just looked at this after that The Final Episode cover :P. Nice band man, i liked you guys on facebook! you guys are ognna do great! how old are you btw? and where you guys live? not tryin to be creeperish, i just have a band and we have some dificulties so i just wanna see how old most people are when they start a band to promote and shit lol

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mudvaynebass1 Thanks :) that means a lot, we are so greatful for all the fans we get. I am 22 years old and currently live in Cape Cod Massachusetts, but the band is out of Albuquerque New Mexico. I just recently joined them after they found my vocal covers. And age is just a number, as long as you play from your heart and network your band like crazy and get fans, you will make it somewhere. just keep playing and enjoy it :)

[mudvaynebass1]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 yeah im 17 right now. So wen we get out of high school I'm guessing it'll be a lot easier hah. I really wanna tour though, it's definitely my dream. Anthony Green has been a big part in my life hah. But im not sure if u know who that is :P hah.

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mudvaynebass1 Then you have plenty of time :) just start working on a band now, cuzz time flies by so fast :/ And of course i know who Anthony Green is :)

[mudvaynebass1]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 hah yeah it does. Yeah we've made about 4 songs right now about to get it recorded. Our band name right now is Guided by Oceans if u wanna add us on facebook, we might change the name though. and alright i figured but i didnt wanna make an assumption shah

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mudvaynebass1 Thats awesome :) send me the link sometime in a personal message so i dont like the wrong band haha, and keep me posted on how everything works out.

[mudvaynebass1]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 alright man will do. And you keep me posted too, I'm excited about your band doing well. Maybe we can tour sometime soon hahaha. If I'm lucky.

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mudvaynebass1 Ok ill keep you posted, and yeah that would be sick :)

[mudvaynebass1]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 alright cool man thanks! Can't wait to hear more of your songs. Hope you can get out an EP or an actual album soon!

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mudvaynebass1 Yeah no problem. We cant wait for our EP either :)

[mudvaynebass1]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 I bet it's an awesome feeling. Can't wait till we get ours done. we just got two songs done yesterday and today. so we have 5 now so all we need to do is record! :)

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@mudvaynebass1 Thats awesome, well i wish you the best of luck, just dont give up, keep pushing on and making music :)

[mudvaynebass1]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 hah will do man. same to you.

[MDairsoft]

Wow. That's all I gotta say. There is no way this is your first demo, it's INCREDIBLE. You guys have great potential as a band. Glad I chose to follow you guys early :)

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@MDairsoft Thank you soo much. We appreciate everyones support. And yes this is our first demo :) we should have another one up next month so keep checking back and help us spread the word :)

[foxhound1331]

I gotta ask how do you do the layer screaming or whatever it sounds beast wondering how people do that

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@foxhound1331 Hey thats a good question :) When we recorded it i would just record one scream, and then add another layer and do a different scream under it, it makes the song sound more full, and luckily im not the only one who can scream in the band so when we play live it should sound the same :)

[Roxas24Productions]

Hey dude, I saw the vid you sent me, so I looked for your band... AND HERE IT IS!!!!!

And I love it!!!! This is so sick, dude!!!! Keep it up!!!! I wanna hear more from you guys!!!!!

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@Roxas24Productions Thanks :) that means so much that you took the time to hear us and we are soo happy you liked it :) we are ancious to get new songs up as well :) please keep checking back.

[Roxas24Productions]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 No prob, man. I'd love to do something with you guys, but my band hasn't really gotten any publicity... We hope more people discover us soon... But hey, if we do get big, we can maybe tour together sometime! =D

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@Roxas24Productions You just need to promote everywhere :) Where can i hear your band? And yeah that would be sick :)

[Roxas24Productions]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 Check us out at MySpace. Just type in apollothepoetnc after the forward slash.

Yeah, I think I might put some of our songs on YouTube. =D

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@Roxas24Productions Alright awesome ill check it out :) and yeah promoting is the biggest part and all your band mates have to participate, its a lot of work but will pay off in the end. So far we are promoting on Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, Purevolume, Stickam, Reverbnation, etc...etc you can never have too much exposure :)

[Roxas24Productions]

@GarrettMcGrath1017 Nice, bro! I gotta become fans of you on Facebook!

[GarrettMcGrath1017]

@Roxas24Productions Yeah :) write on our wall :) and please spread the word it means the world to us.

[Mosh20Pit]
