Almost glad I didn't manage to enter this week: I wouldn't have stood a chance against this competition. Berkeley Social Scene: Nice psychedelic sound to the guitars, and the verse-to-chorus transition works well. Catchy melodies. Put together really well. Think this is my favorite BSS so far of the...

Thanks for the reviews, Paco! I'm glad you liked the energy of my song. I tuned up before recording it but probably my strings are too old and internally out of tune. Good feedback, helpful for what to focus on next time.

I listened to the entries on the YouTube video (seems mp3s aren't up yet?). They're all pretty good and I especially love the Dutch Widows and Ujn entries.

Berkeley Social Scene: Love the sparkly opening riff. Vocals are kind of buried in the verses, can't make some of them out. The bridge ("And I know it's pathetic...") is nice. Great instrumentation in general. Don't care for how the vocals get tortured sounding at the end. This might benef...

Was this truth? Was it a sodden thing rotting in the sun Even as we pulled back its onion layers? In the seconds between the Flash of recognition in your face And the cool regret of uncertain failures I felt the ground shifting between my feet As if chemically something were up In the soil of our fi...

I'm in! I've been fixated on entering another fight.

Oh, also: Scrap Heap : ... Wish the lyrics were posted since this is such a simple arrangement. I posted the lyrics after seeing this comment! Had been a little shy about doing so, since some of them seemed obvious/automatic and I wanted to rewrite them, but ran out of time without coming up with an...

Pigfarmer Jr : Love the tight rawk sound. Found this one getting stuck in my head. Title seems a bit forced though, like if this weren't for Songfight "Away in the Morning" would make a better title. Berkeley Social Scene : Really impressive arrangement with a lot of details that come tog...

"Not Doomed" by Scrap Heap: Throw on another log And tell me what it means to give up If you're the first to have these thoughts Then isn't that enough? (C): I'm not the one to tell you that you're not doomed If that's what you'd like to believe There's nothing I can do to get you out of t...

I submitted a song, but it was a bit late... am waiting in hopes that some (no doubt undeserved) leniency on the fightmaster's part allows it to appear on the site. It sucks less than my past efforts. The chord progression, perhaps appropriately, consists of a repeated downward motion, contrasted ag...

Ugh, this title is totally uninspiring.

Edit: Scratch that. I have the perfect idea!

Scrap Heap - Cheesy hand clap, and annoying guide vocal bring down the charm of this. I like your 1st verse lyrics. The music is a bit sparse. Sounds like a good foundation, could use some lead guitar or lead violin or lead kazoo, basically a lead instrument. Ouch, lyrical violation “a song is a ve...

Spud, you got me there. I guess. I actually have no idea what your point is.

Hello songfight, I'm scrap heap! Be warned, I am only slightly better at reviewing than I am at writing songs. Jeffrey Davis : I like that songfight showed me this one first, it's kind of an intro! But... not much of a "song." Jake DeLorey : Really "phoning it in" on the vocals, ...
