Great lyricism. The song was more atmospheric than melodic, which is quite interesting. 9/10

Wow, that's a change. Nothing wrong with the song, it's a bit too country/folksy(?) for me. Quite repetitive, like there's not one bit in the song where they've changed it up a bit. For instance the tempo was pretty consistent throughout. I don't usually have a problem with songs that are repetitive, but when the song is slow it just doesn't cut it for me. I did like how the instruments were all meshed in this piece, it was really nice.

Alright, not sure if I've already posted this before. I've posted a song from Local Natives (pretty sure it wasn't this song), but w/e

8.5/10. That was a great song coupled with a nice video. I don't usually listen to this genre but as the first song I've heard by local natives, it's certainly left a good impression on me.

I don't know if this has been posted recently, as it is quite popular already but check out :

My favorite artist (ZEDD) with my favorite director/dancer (Daniel Cloud Campos) with Hayley Williams as well. Couldn't be any better for me.

Mmm, vocals weren't really catchy, background music was okay, didn't feel like there was much 'content' to the song, 7/10 (just for Hayley Williams ;) )

I don't usually like these types of songs or the "people" who play them. Reminds me of Black Metal, even if it isn't. However, the chorus in this was appealing (sort of....). I didn't bother to watch the video; I want to keep my childhood alive. LOL, jk. And rating: 7.15/10 ,excluding the video of course.


This is one hell of an overrated song IMO. The progression is too slow for my liking and probably even for yours, so skip through some of it as necessary. Wanting to know why people like/dislike it.

Hmmm.......yeah, I don't see all the hype about it. Don't like the lyrics at all! Beat is alright. 6/10

I realized the vocals were actually meaningful, after listening to it for a second time. The progression was slow but I couldn't have imagined it being any faster anyway, as it would have ruined the feeling of the song. So overall: 7.2/10


I guess some of you have heard this song already in the past. One of my favorites because it can't be really defined by a set genre. It's got good bits of everything. The memories...

Wasn't really a fan of the techno, so I'd say a 4.5/10

I'm into more folk-alternative music. This song got me through a really tough time a couple of years back and it's my anthem for VCE too

Honestly, when I saw folk I thought I'd hate the song. BUT HOLY MOLY THERE IS SOMETHING I LIKE ABOUT IT..............SOUNDS FAMILIAR THOUGH
8/10

EDIT: I THINK I KNOW WHY IT SOUNDS FAMILIAR!! Was it on Neighbours or on the TV ads?

I USE TO JAM TO THIS SONG ALL THE TIME. XX MEMORIES. HAHAHAHA

Mm, the melody is okay, but the pace is slow, I can't even tap my feet to it! 7/10

A bit of 'sci-fi'

Instead of having 7 unconsciously be my standard, i'm actually gonna make 5 average for a change. I'd give it a 6.5. I always love me a bit of power metal so its above average but the guitar and the voice seem to overlap in their ranges. I usually think its much better when they're clearly distinct and the singer has a deep powerful voice, still good though.

This is a new EP from powerwolf (who i just found out about as well). The video is a bit weird, i think they're pretty into their history/theology/mythical elements and it seems to be a depiction of the medieval witch trials, that said, it's still a bit odd, even for nordic standards. Great power metal though.
