The Song Fight Bulletin Board

No more reviews? =(

I don't have full-on reviews going, but after first listens my vote is leaning toward either Paco Del Stinko or Melvin. That's good stuff right there.

I must admit that I'm also rather dissapointed by the lack of many reviews thus far. Get with it folks

I'll get back on board the review train if not last minute this fight, then on time for the next. Meanwhile, thanks for the write-ups people, I appreciate them. There is indeed an octave on the lead, it is a Z-Vex pedal through an amp. The fine words from Kamp Klownhole make me stand taller and strike a Herculean pose. Thanks again!

Reviews of House of Hodgman

So this was a great CD to drive to. Almost all of these songs are pretty nice on the ears. Criticisms are for the sake of review – decent fight, though.

Zoosneakers – This sounds like a bunch of stuff I listened to on worn-out tapes in my car int eh middle 80s – that’s a good thing. The words are pretty creepy. Great playing. Neat textures. I wish the sound progressed more. Good song.

Wes et.al. – curse your voice Wes. I wish I had your instrument, and you use it so well. I was Helplessly hoping your hype would be hilarious. Interesting idea to use the alliteration technique. Other than that the song doesn’t go that far for me. Pretty and well done. Good

Steve – The couplets get a little tiresome for me here. I thin the way they work with the tune make it hard to grab the form the first time through, and I think it never really is firmly established. Given the concept you went for, I think the words are well done, but the punch line some how drops at the end, part structure, part delivery, I think. Well put together otherwise. I wonder if an instrumental section could have broken it up a little.- OK

Spinlock - a little GnP here. Your singing/piano sets up a great texture and the melancholy fits the content great. Is that mouth percussion? I like. The song doesn’t speak to me in particular, but I get that it could speak to those who have done something like this. The build I pretty good up to the guitar solo, but the part after begins to feel a little long. Nice sounding and well put together. I get the title here, but I wish I was feeling the role of the title more. Good.

Shitload of… - I don’t really care about the story here. Not my kind of song, I guess. I like the “Please don’t call …” break – this reminds me a little of the Eels at that point. Ok

Me. – first ofall, I think I decided it’s too short. Alos, I should re-record the vocals, I recorded them before I dropped some things out of the mix and so I over sing at some points. I only decided ot have a female perspective the last day of working, so I didn’t have time to get a girl to sing it. Even so, in the folk tradition I believe there is much precedent for singing across gender lines for the sake of the song. I think this came out very much as I intended. And it’s always fun to play my dulcimer.

Ravenhide – I can hardly get through this. Maybe you shouldn’t record metal vocals while you’re afraid you might wake your parents up. It sounds like this is recorded on one mic while you hold up a boom box playing a tape of the backing tracks. I definitely tire of the loop. All this stood in the way of me accessing the actual song, but I don’t feel like I missed much. Thanks for playing.

Paco – so fro months I’ve been holding on mentioning the Elfman in your voice, but with this guitar lick I’ve got a say – quite a bit of Elfman here. I was enjoying this quite a bit, but you kind of lose me in the slow middle section – the exposition and delivery both feel quite a bit forced at that point. Your guitar rock as always. Good.
Melvin – I figured that someone would do the Australia thing, I was thinking it would be Ray. I like how you use House to order, to work the title part in. I like the colors here, nice harmony section. Then the song ends up feeling about 30 seconds too long. I would be very interested to know what Aussies make of this song. Good.

Limu – Very hard to hear the words. Not much happened for me here. Thanks for playing.

Legless – sounds like you might be missing a finger, too. Ok, I’ll admit, I like this. Can’t say why, and it’s totally irrational, there is authenticity to the imprecise banjo playing. The story is a bit forced and does not appear to be title related, though. And I’m not sure I think it works as a “song.” Just me, not gonna debate anybody on it. Thanks for playing.

Jim – Great in almost all ways. Probably the most skillfully executed, complete package here this week. But didn’t the yacht rock fight end a while back J Seriously, The one thing that keeps me from REALLY going for this is just the topic – City guy saves make-out house. But that’s just me. Good words, good structure, good playing, singing, etc. How do you record your guitar and what do you play? Good +

Feldspar – nice song. The panning sawtooth is a little distracting. Nice tunefulness to it. Easy to sing along with. Good.

Cr410 – clever. The website I really there – who knew? I’m surprised more people didn’t use this as a source. One of the best of this genre we’ve had – good story, clever word work, funny ending – but um – I’m not really a rap person. Good-

Billy’s little trip – Great guitars –other than that this just grooves along- it would be great in a club late at night with the right lights. Which is to say that to me this one seems to succeed more on feel than content (except tot he extent that feel can be considered content) a bit repetitive for my taste. Ok

Big Crouton – Where to begin an epic in the Meatloaf tradition. 2 servings rock, 3 serving cheese 4 servers amazing guitar playing. That said – the overall piece fell short, partly because the story just didn’t feel refined enough ot me – I realize, one week, how much time to refine. But I can only review what I got. Second, your singing on the “verses” just doesn’t blend, jibe with the song and the recording, so it feels a little weird. For a piece like this to work it seem like the singer really has to carry it off – which Meatloaf, for instance, can do. Peter Cetera could not have made Bat out of hell work, you know. Your guitar playing carries it, well composed to fit the mood of each section, etc….Even so, I’m gonna have to call this one OK.

Tops – Jim, Spinlock, Wes, Zoosneakers…and I think mine is pretty good J
Next tier – BLT, cr410, Feldspar, Paco, Steve

In a week with lots of good guitar playing Big Crouton was definitely crunchiest and spiciest!!!

I'll try to get a review up tomorrow. Thanks to everyone that has given one thus far.

No try. Do, or do not. There is no try.

I generally don’t respond to reviews until I’ve done mine. So..

I just wanted to say thanks for these comments that I took as compliments

RossD with his real to life folk song that actually takes you to an earlier century.

This is a solid folk song with really good playing and interesting instruments. You're really good at this style.

the arrangement is beautiful, and (other than pitch trouble here and there) your execution is flawless. One of your stronger concepts and lyrical executions.

Thanks especially because I would call this more like what I “really do” than a lot of my other submissions to this site.

I picture you invited to play this at a local public school that's had it's music program cut. Some chanties interspersed with solemn stories of the famine. I don't know, something like that. Structure is good, develops along, and then you go for the meat. Dead, especially drowned lovers are the best kind of lovers.

It’s reviews like this that make me think, “yep, I nailed it!” Thanks.

folk songs tend to be about exciting events like gratuitous murders and cheating wives. The death of a noble family by saving someone from drowning... just isn't gruesome enough. Other than that, really good application of style.

well, I think the first part of your statement is a bit of an overgeneralization, but .. sorry I let you down. Would it help to know that diving in he bashes his head against a rock and the brains spill out, feeding the hungry fish beneath?

Is that a harmonium?

It claims to be an accordion, but I was really going for a concertina type sound.

Anyway – thanks everyone for the reviews.

Reviews


Ravenhide: Sounds like I’m listening to a single 2"speaker. Like other people have mentioned, it sounds like you are trying to be quiet so you don’t disturb somebody. I can’t make out most of the words. It sounds like if it were producced better it might be OK.

Legless Bill Tubbs: I’m a big fan of mountain banjo music so I think is kind of fun but, I don’t get the connection to the title at all.

Spinlock: Nice piano at the start. The mouth percussion is OK but I find the panning back and forth to be distracting. The melody is nice. The piano is just kind of droning after a while. I think that you need a little more variety in there. The lyrics don’t really grab me but, overall, a good effort.

Limu: The piano is kind of muddy and overpowering. The vocals need to be more up front in the first part. It’s better when they are louder. I do like the feel of this.

cr410: You don’t hear that many raps with a guitar track. I like that. Cute lyrics. I know that I always buy things from any site that Songfight! Leads me to.

Sh*tload of Dolphins: I like your voice. Strange pronunciation of “propensities”. The bloopy background is interesting because you keep it changing.

Melvin: For some reason your guitar tone sounds kind of wimpy. That’s unusual for you. The vocal harmonies sound kind of out of tune in places. I don’t find the lyrical content to be particularly interesting. Marvin Gaye wants his bass line back. In spite of these negative comments, I like it overall.

Paco del Stinko: A giant frog, man! Silly lyrics. The riff makes me think of something out of the 60's that I can’t quite place. The middle part kind of takes it out of the groove. You voice fits this thing perfectly. Ribbit, Ha. That was fun. Good job.

Jim Tyrell: Adult contemporary . Well I’m an old geezer so I like it. Good production. “Town planners are all goin’ bananas” I like that line. Well done.

Big Crouton: Guitar Hero of the Week award. I love the shredding going on here. I think the solo guitar could be more out front even. Not that thrilled with the song. The story could have been told in just a few lines. It’s like the lyrical sections are convenient segues between the guitar wanking. It is kind of long.

Ross Durand: The dulcimer sounds sweet. Your voice sounds kind of whiny on the higher notes. Good production on this. The accordian/concertina adds a nice tonal contrast. Nice guitar work. A well told story but not the kind of thing that I would normally choose to listen to.

Wes Davis and the DesMLs: Wes, you’ve got a great singing voice. Collaborating with Des and LML is a brilliant idea. Another very well produced tune. Not really connecting with the lyrics. I think that the strings are a bit over-the-top. Good job.

Feldspar: I already mentioned how much I like your guitar sound on this. I could have done without the chatter at the beginning. Don’t really like the chime kind of sound. The lyrics paint a picture for me. I’m not much of a fan of having things pan from left to right for no particular reason. Good job.

Zoosneakers: Very “atmospheric”. Probably too much for my taste. I think that I don’t like this for the same reason that my brother likes I, it sounds like stuff I heard in the 80's. It seems well enough put together. Just not my cup of tea.

Billy’s Little Trip: I think that your stuff definitely sounds better since you’ve gone digital. You’ve got a good groove going here. Your vocals are much more clear on this one. Not really digging the lyrical content. Sound like you’re singing about Hannibal Lechter.

Yeah, that's great. 8)
Not exactly the most folk-aware around, so that opinion probably doesn't count for much. You could do more and educate us. Having said that, your get a life entry was fantastic!

OK, I stopped trying and took action. All of the songs this week were really good. I've listen to them on my shuffle all week and some I listened to a lot. Here is my review for House Of Hodgman.

Big Crouton - Ok, we start with the a Rage guitar sound, but bust into a SMOKING lead solo. Story style lyrics and melody, and more SMOKING guitar. The Pink Floyd break is a pleasing dynamic. I honestly didn't want it to end. In fact, please do a whole Floyd'esque song in the near future. You could have written a 3 part story with the amount of lyrical content in this one. Great job, it's nice to hear guitars as the driving force.

cr410 p - I like the fact that you made your own back tracks to rap over. The guitar riff is sweet. I know drum machine programming takes time, but a killer drum track would have pushed this one up quite a bit. Dude, your brother was right ....I hope. Good job.

Feldspar - Very good guitar work, recording and mixing. I really like the wide guitars mixed with the centered guitar. I'm not sure who's who in this song, but the beginning vocals sound like one of the other bands I've heard here on the SF. That one song about Ivy growing on the wall, and the train comes into the station, etc. Is that you? Anyway, very good song and nice guitar strumming.

Jim Tyrrell - I really enjoyed this song because I got a real Jack Johnson vibe, but with an obvious original Jim Tyrrel sound so I didn't feel like I was listening to a rip off. But I do really like the laid back Cali vibe on this one. I've been listening to this song a lot this week. It made me come home and pick up my acoustic and jam with some jazz and blues chords for a couple hours. I don't know why I don't write more songs with these chords, I guess because they don't fit the mood I'm in at the time. Great work Jim.

Legless Bill Tubbs - This song took me by surprise. This reminds me of some of the folk that one of the regulars posted a lot when I first came to song fight. It didn't rock me, but it wasn't supposed to. It didn't excite me, but it wasn't supposed to. It didn't even make me want to pick up my guitar. But what it did do is make me want to listen again as if I'm missing something. Maybe I'm missing depth in my thinking. Maybe I'm missing my childhood. Maybe I'm missing the point. But it did make me listen which is a feat in itself, so for that, good job. Also, good job on the realistic sounding dialog to fit the mood.

Limu - The piano starts out sounding a lot like that band that did the peanuts theme cover (can't think of the name) I wish I heard your voice more in the low parts, but good job.

Melvin - I like how you used the Hodgman you picked. I saw that one too when I was trying to figure it out. As usual, well played and arranged and well written. Great job.

Paco Del Stinko - I LOVE your Halloween music! Giant frogmen, lmao!!! Deco rotten, sounds like my house. Your voice works well with this song. The lead solo sound is awesome, it sounded like a scream. I loved the progressive outro and I would have sued you if you didn't say ribbit at the end. Great job!

Ravenhide - It is unfortunate that the mix is so low and vocals so separately layered. But after the mixing issues, this is a pretty good song. But it does make me laugh thinking of you trying not to wake people up in the next room while you're singing, LMFAO!

Ross Durand - Sweet guitar and vocals. This song really paints a picture, which is what a good folk song should do. The addition of accordion or was it a harmonica, was perfect. Very good story, very good song and writing, and very well performed. Great job.

Sh*tload of Dolphins - I liked this song. Interesting delivery. Interesting story about cleaning houses of strange rich people. It's fun to use you're imagination when writing. Good job.

Spinlock - I've come to notice that you are a good song writer. Good performance, and a nice arrangement. I would love to hear this song professionally recorded or live. Good job.

Steve Durand - Your music always makes me start tapping my foot. The lyrics are very descriptive. I got the feeling that you were trying to squeeze your story into this song. But you did seem to pull it off. But it certainly doesn't take away from this jamming tune. Nice work.

Wes Davis and the DesMLs - This is a really nice song. I love how you you vocally carry the words with the pitch changes (I don't know the term). I personally liked the outro, it gave another dimension to the overall song. Good job.

Zoosneakers - I loved the 60's vibe I get from this song. The guitar solo is perfect for this vibe. I would have like to hear the dynamics of everything a bit more, but overall well done.

Melisma?

Hi, everyone. Sorry it has taken me so long to get all of these reviews done. Been a busy week around here. Anyway, thanks to everyone who reviewed my song, it's nice to get the input...And it's especially nice to get the occasional complement. In that vein, here are my reviews of your songs. Please don't take any of it as hypocrisy, as I know that my songs have their fair share of trouble. If you absolutely hate anything that I say about your song, feel free to write me off as a crack-pot and forget about my existence. (I'm sure that my family and friends do it all the time.)

BTW, I haven't had time to read the majority of the posts on here yet (I typed these reviews off-line), so if I comment on an issue that has already been addressed in the forum, then just disregard it, and I appologize.

Big Crouton - Obviously the instrumental work is really good on this one. I also really enjoyed the shift in the guitar at 3:05. Nice effects on that. As I'm not good at mixing vocals (see my song for details), I can't put my finger on it, but there is something "off" on the higher sung parts of the vocals in the beginning and end parts of the song. They are also a little hard to hear. Much easier to hear in the softer and slower parts after 3:05. Maybe it’s the mixing, or maybe your voice is more suited to singing lower parts? Fun story idea (well, not if it was a real event, but you know what I mean.) Truthfully, I felt like the song was a little long, but maybe that's just cause I wasn't expecting something of this length for a song fight entry. Anyway, all-in-all nice song.

Billy's Little Trip - The opening is very soundgarden (whom I like). Later it feels like it gets mixed with a little Deep Purple. I really like the shift in the lead guitar line at 1:30 to the "da-duh-dee-da-duh" variation. It is kind of hard to hear the vocals; I had to be really careful about EQ settings when listening to this one. I really hate to say it, but the lyrics weren't my cup of tea, though. When the distorted guitar drops out at 1:57, the bass really stands out, and I must say that I really like the tone quality of it. It's at that fun point where it's hard to tell if it is a real bass with effects, or a synth that the factory couldn't quite get to reproduce a bass. Good stuff.

Feldspar - Obviously, very folksy. Some good stuff in the guitar part, like the stops on the strums with the chord changes at 0:33. Obviously not flashy, but sometimes the best additions to a song are the ones that don't really stand out as technical. It’s a shame that you guys got some weird line noise at 0:50 and a couple of other points in the song. The ocarina sound was a nice touch, would have liked to have heard it a little more throughout the song. Definitely would have preferred it to that "fly-buzzing" sound. Once again, may sound mean, but I didn't really care for the lyrics...except for one line. "Broken fragments of conversations, hang around the open window all winter long." This is a GREAT line. It just oozes with feeling and mood. Don't let it end with this song. Seriously, I would love for you to write this into another song some other time.

Jim Tyrell - Nice and funky. The change from the middle range part to a treble one with the guitar was very nice. Like the shift in chord progression for "You can say what you wanna say." I like the lyrics for this one, too. Especially "One mystery solved..." Complaints are few, a small one: every now and then some of the right-hand muted strokes produces "chucks" that are a little too loud. If you ever revisit this song, maybe drop the level real quick at those spots. The biggest complaint I have is that the guitar and bongos seems to get out off sync at the outro of the song. Didn't notice this at all in the middle of the song. Overall, though, this was a great song. I think that it'll be staying on my computer for quite some time after this songfight is over.

Legless Bill Tubbs - I just have to ask, is this actually ad-libbed, or did you just do a really good job of making it sound that way? If it was planned, then it is very funny due to just the "uncomfortableness" you achieve in the song. But, I have *no idea* what the heck this has to do with "House of Hodgeman." Although it is always fun to hear a banjo, I have to say that there is a lot of slop in the playing (and maybe some bad tuning?) BTW, nice sound design on the vocals.

Limu - The right side vocals are OK, but it sounds like you need to sing out a little more and get some more power/stability behind your voice. I hate to sound mean, but the left side background vocals need more help. You get a lot of noise in the vocal part with the second verse. It sounds like it’s because you boosted the levels on them there. (Once again, if you were to sing out a little more to start with it should help with this problem.) I really liked the piano work, though.

Melvin - I really like the rhythm guitar. It rides nicely on the rhythm of the drums. And going for the shorter "clean-gap" stabs was the right choice for it. The whole song has a nice 80's feel to it. I have nothing against synthesizers (I like the bass synth), but the bit from 1:46 to 2:29 was a little heavy on them for me. I can't claim to understand all of the lyrics because of a "country gap" here, but if the general impression I'm getting is correct, then I like the direction you took your theme in, so nice interpretation of "House of Hodgman."

Paco Del Stinko - Funny theme. Could almost have been the plot for a B-80's horror movie. I really like the guitar riff in between the verses. The instrumental (not vocal) part of the verses reminds me of The Offspring at times. There was some great sound design on this one. All of the instrument parts have their own "space," none of them get in each other's way, and they all gel together to make a really fun song. Fun treatment of the vocals by the singer, too. BTW, the "ribbit" at the end got me. Nice touch.

Ravenhide - Sounds like something from an 80's anime or action movie. Hate too be too critical, but the vocals really need help. For one, you need to sing out, as your voice is underpowered and that really negatively affects the sound. Also, it sounds like Adam Sandler did your vocals. Next, you need to mix your vocal and instrumental tracks better. The instrumentals are WAY too soft. Maybe you don't have the proper software to do this, but I'm pretty sure that you could probably find some appropriate freeware on the web. Anyway, don't be discouraged and good luck on your next try.

Ross Durand - Nice to hear a guy singing a song from a girl's perspective. For those who don't know, songs like this used to be a little more common back in the day. (No, farther back...keep going...) I guess macho-ism kind of killed a lot of this style, but nice to hear people still doing it. BTW, good job of getting a very traditional sound out of this in both composition and lyrics. The instrumental all sounds very good and I like the lyrics, a lot of good turns of phrase and plot. Nice melancholy little ditty. I figure that you are probably trying to emphasize the treble in your voice, but the vocals felt a little thin/top-heavy at times. I don't that feeling that much when the background singers join in, so maybe do something a little different with the EQ would make it sound better. Never thought about interpreting "House" as one's bloodline with this week's theme. Very imaginative.

Sh*tload of Dolphins - From the opening, I really expected this song to go pop-punk. The "nintendo" synth in the background is WONDERFUL! And it grows on you even more as the song goes on. Are you using a sample of something, one of the sound-chip emulators for a gaming system, or a VSTi to get that sound, or what? Anyway, bravo on that. The theme is a lot of fun. From a comedy perspective, there were a lot of good lines, like the pregnant alien, the conversation piece, and (even though it is far from rhyming and you could have added a few more words to get a the last bit to get a better rhythm going)"Please don't call the police. We need this 20 G." (What can I say, it made me laugh.) Once again, I may be being a little harsh, but the vocals are little off pitch and off rhythm at times. Other than that, though, I liked this song. Funny stuff.

Spinlock - The piano is really well done up. The subject of the lyrics and the "mood" of the vocals fit the piano well. I thought that it was a very well written topic. For me, there were only two main problems with the song: 1. Through out the song, the beatbox seems to bounce between being in sync and fighting quite a bit with the beat implied by the piano. 2. From the lyrics, I realize that you were trying to go for a disconcerting sound with the guitar that kicks in at 1:37, but it was a little too out there and distracted from the song for me. The guitar is a nice addition when it settles down, though.

Steve Durand - I actually expected a straight swing song from the intro, until the guitar kicked in. It ends up being a kind of mix between swing, mariachi, and Dr. Seuss for me. The "less orthodox" rhythm fits the M.C. Escher house theme nicely, but I probably would have picked a different rhythm pattern for the guitar. Stating the obvious, but you can tell that this song was meant to really showcase the brass. Speaking of which, the brass "hits" in the chorus are a nice shift for the horns and to emphasize the chorus. The rhythm needs to be tightened up just a little between the individual parts, as most everyone seems to get off beat at one point or another.

Wes Davis and DesMLs - Absolutely NO complaints about the instrumental. Well done, bravo! I like the harmonizing on the vocals, might have liked to have heard the background vocal part pulled up to the front a just little more, though. No problems with the theme of the song, but not crazy about some of the lyrics. And a little bit of nitpicking here, but I would have preferred if you had ended the song with the whole ensemble fading out, not just the strings. For me, the "slower" feeling of them causes the song to lose its momentum in an undesirable way.

Zoosneakers - Really like the drum work and the guitars. Afraid I can't say the same about the effects on the vocals, though. Not only does it make it hard to catch the vocals, but it seems to emphasize the treble end of the vocals in a bad way. Just a little suggestion, but maybe the song could benefit from a little bit of compression (esp. on the drums) to get a "tighter" mix. Now, sorry if this sounds really brutal, but I didn't
really like the lyrics that I could catch. Although the theme fits the psychedelic sound, I think that it could have been covered a little better. If this song had different lyrics recorded in another fashion, I think that it would have been really good.

Anyway, those are my reviews. (Hope I didn't offend anyone out there too much.) It's been a fun song fight, and hope to see you all around.

Thanks. The bleeps and bloops are from the Roland SC-880 MIDI module. It took me a long time to find some nice sounding squares and saws within its bajillions of banks and settings, but I make a lot of instrumental videogame-like songs so it was worth it!

I think after a week of listening to these songs, my favs are:

- Melvin
- Jim Tyrell
- Billy's
- Wes

Honorable mention to Spinlock for making me cry.

That was mean of him.

it's a tough call between BLT and Paco - with points to the Durands, especially Steve for the "cadre of automatons" line.

I think BLT has the possession arrow.

I only listened to this fight briefly - and I hated most of it. I didn't vote - but I would have voted for Legless Bill Tubbs - that cracked me up (was that Fluxxumflovim?) - although the banjo was a bit sloppy. Paco was OK. Melvin;s Tasmanianism didn't convince me. Big Crouton - WTF?!?! - are you Meatloaf or something? That sounded like "Bat out of Hell Part 7" You should go to http://www.RockOperaFight!.com.

By the way, congrats Wes,Des and LML. Nice song.
