Sounds like recent Avantasia lyrics.

Where do we go from the apogee

I don't know about the others, but unfurl is definitely English.

[Evermind]

Apogee is also English. It's actually in the lyrics for Avantasia's Dying for an Angel too.

Are you sure that's not Klaus Meine's accent?

WTF is an apogee?

[Evermind]

From Merriam-Webster:

Definition of apogee

1 : the point in the orbit of an object (such as a satellite) orbiting the earth that is at the greatest distance from the center of the earth

also : the point farthest from a planet or a satellite (such as the moon) reached by an object orbiting it

2 : the farthest or highest point : CULMINATION

Aegean civilization reached its apogee in Crete.

There's also a perigee which is the opposite of apogee.

First impressions:


To be fair, this song became better when the drums and guitar kicked in.

Nice trip-hoppy beat and distorted bass go well together, but I'd wanted this to kick into higher gear towards the end.

I like the vocals, but the beat is a bit annoying. The song might actually work better without it.

Cool mysterious atmosphere and I like the bass. It's a little too busy sounding though.

Seriously cool bass, but the whole think is a tad long and directionless.

This is a bit more sleeker-sounding I usually like to listen to, but quite lovely nevertheless.

Cool beat but other than, not my thing.

Beautiful, melodic piece.

This sounds like Linkin Park and I don't like Linkin Park. The outro should've been a separate song.

This might seem like something that wouldn't work at all, but I think this is pretty cool.

Looks to me like you didn't like this round much

Looks to me like you didn't like this round much 

I mean, who would??





I have no idea which one is mine.

[Ruba]

Looks to me like you didn't like this round much 

No, it was alright. Sure, this is among my least favourite rounds together with the acoustic round, but the first impressions paint a bit too critical picture. There's couple of songs I really like, couple I'm not too fond of and a few possible wild cards in the middle.

[Crow]

Proud to be a song you're not too fond of

Were you implying that the first impressions are in same order as the songs are submitted? Nah, I figured that would be too lazy and that someone would notice. I play the songs on shuffle and the first impressions are in the order they play the first time. That shuffles the deck quite nicely.

Haha..no.

I was checking some of the songs out last night, and I wanted the songs and impressions in one spot.

[Lethean]

I would have been confused if the Katatonia song was considered too busy.

[Crow]

Corn time

[Ruba]

Haha..no.

Alright. I'd be interested to know whether there was anything you actually liked, even a little.

I thought the Gary Moore was pretty good.

[Stadler]

The Firm piece is DEFINITELY NOT a "beautiful, melodic piece".
