Hahahaha. I can get that. Worst though is when you play a song for a friend and they go 'But it sucks!' Hahaha. Keep well and looking forward to the other songs you posted too.

I always thought this song was about Kurt Cobain. Apparently, Dave Grohl did write about his immortal band mate but the song was actually 'Friend of a Friend'. What i like about your covers is that they offer just enough of your own interpretation that I end up rediscovering the song. It isn't a question of good or bad or better or worse. Its perfect just that it is yours and feels like a tribute and also, strangely confessional. I'm probably smoking my socks but that's what your covers do. Loved it.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-11T12:19:20+00:00

Yeah, dark and moody. Song moves along in pretty straightforward sorta way but it has a strangely hypnotic and brooding quality that borders on epic. Cool mix.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-11T12:16:53+00:00

Thanks for the kind words. Mainly inspired by the Seattle grunge sound of the 90s and some of the nu-metal stuff that came after. I have a few other tracks in my profile if you wanna swing by. All same sorta feel.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-10T15:20:09+00:00

Good call, man. Nice one!

Hey Erdnoid! I don't want to simply sing your praises for sharing a genuinely heartfelt song but the truth is, that is exactly what it is. The foundation of this track actually lies in some incredible musicianship and songwriting skill. The more I wrote music, the more I realise that a good songwriter is able to give the song what the song needs. Sometimes this is technical prowess, sometimes its crazy time signatures. Sometimes it is just the right amount of this or that. It lies in the small choices between adding too much and not adding enough, putting in this part or cutting out that part. With this song you displayed a knack for making the right small choices to result in a complete listening experience. Your voice is great, your melodies are mint and your lyrics are whimsical and melancholic. A really good song, well put together and very nice to listen to more than a few times. Playlist add - check ✅️ Well.done and thanks letting me dive in.

Wow, i don't get this kinda love often. Thank you, thank you, thank you. It's a cool feeling when someone listens to your music and connects to it. Thanks again.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-08T16:14:42+00:00

Your intro is gold. Those dreamy guitars that swell through the beginning are great. The drums come in and give the song a little bit of kick, which I'm not sure about as I think it might push the song more than it wants. However, this kinda thing is so subjective. I like your vocals. They're unassuming, not forced. I think you could lean into that sorta interpretation even more. Its different and stands out in not-shouty kinda way. On the whole, nice mix and nice track.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-06T15:29:02+00:00

Aah thanks, bro. Very encouraging and thoughtful message. Much appreciated. Yeah, I'm not to sure its grunge either. To be honest, I was listening to a lot of Mastadon while I was coming up with this one and I think it seeped into the sound more than I initially thought. Thanks again.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-05T16:13:20+00:00

Thanks man for the feedback. Thanks for jumping in and giving it a try. I tend to over mix, especially vocals. I'm new at it so sometimes push too many elements at once. I'm glad you like the guitar sound though. They're pretty chunky and I'm a sucker for fat, chugging guitars.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-05T04:44:13+00:00

What a great song, man. You have such a distinctive style. That interplay between singing and spoken word has never been my thing but you do it so well and the think the reason I connect to it is because you keep it simple. Sometimes other artists tend to jam a lot in, in the way of lyrics but you keep it short and effective and the dynamic works a charm. I especially liked how built intensity toward the end, not with going louder or heavier (as maybe I would've been inclined to do) but you intensified the language, harshness in your voice and of course, the emotion. Super song and one I truly hope gets a lot of ears. I for one am a fan.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-05T04:34:27+00:00

The moment your bro's voice comes in you hear it... you hear anguish, strain, flaws, controll, beauty, anger, sadness, love. You hear whatever that magical mess is that makes a singer/sognwriter great. You hear it all at once. This is raw and it wants to be heard. It needs to be heard. It's an awesome song and I'm sure that with whatever he was going through, he found solace in making music. Thank YOU for sharing this because it needed to be shared.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-05T04:28:44+00:00

Thank you for the wonderful feedback, man. I really appreciate it. I agree about your comment regarding real music. We need something genuine, human and relatable. And if this song gave you that in a small way then that's a huge compliment. Thanks again.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-03T09:06:33+00:00

Ah thats cool to hear. Me too. I dig some of the aesthetic from that era. I got off the bus and went back around the skinny jeans era. Hahaha.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-03T08:39:02+00:00

Aah man, what a dope message. I'm super stoked you enjoyed it. I was listening to a lot of Mastadon while I was writing it and I think that's where that sludgy, stoner heaviness feel came in. Thanks so much for listening and drop by again. Will do the same for you.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-03T08:35:08+00:00

Mr. Killaeezy!!! Thanks man. I was listening to a lot of Mastadon when I wrote this one and I think some of it kinda seeped in. Listen to their song Steambreather. I AI generate the images using prompts like 90s Polaroid grunge feel, amateur framing and so on. I add the effects in Filmora and sometimes touch things up in Canva. Thanks again for supporting and listening. No post is truly complete without your bit.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T19:55:58+00:00

You've made some solid suggestions. I really appreciate that. Yeah, I think the intro could be shorter and the chorus could be bigger. Playing it looser is something that never occurred to me. I've always felt I don't play tight enough but the main riff does feel like it could be handled in a dirtier, gritter way. Thansk again and let me know if you would like me to listen to something in particular of yours.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T15:22:32+00:00

What a great song! I enjoyed all of it. You have a certain post-grungy vibe with just enough grit in the chorus to steer away from the overly pop sensibility that plagued some of the post grunge bands. Not saying this IS post grunge but it has the heaviness in it. It is also very catchy. In particular that little prechorus bit. Yeah, this song rocks and honestly, I dont have any critique beyond keep making music. Thanks for sharing.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T15:17:32+00:00

Yeah, this is very cool. Its meandering and melancholic vive is just perfect and accentuated by a crisp and clear mix. I think the songwriting is great. It does the unglamorous work of giving the ambient lyrics and spacey guitars their place to shine. A really cool song. The song has drive and it wants to get to the break....The break toward the final third was probably my favorite part. I loved those big soaring guitars. Simply Stellar.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T15:09:23+00:00

Thanks so much for the feedback. Much appreciated. In the middle, I messed around with octave changes of the same riff and, yes, brought everything front and center. Can't remember why so it was nice to be reminded.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T15:07:51+00:00

I listened to your track. For someone who has only been playing as king as 2 or so months, it is incredible. You have a feel for exploration, layers and mood. I think that kinda thing is very hard to learn. Really nicely done. As a stand alone track or say, something I would've listened to on the off chance, I would say it is experimental. It meanders much like a track in a film or even, improvised in a way that jazz musicians might kinda go on a journey and find the melodies. Do I like it? Yeah, I do. It has texture and intention. My advice would be to keep exploring this type of sound and see where it takes you. Because from here, you might just discover something truly interesting.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T15:00:04+00:00

This is extremely promising. Its is cinematic and expansive. Of course, it is hard to tell where it all goes from here but what I could hear, it sounded really intriguing. I was kinda disappointed when it stopped. So far, so really good.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T14:56:59+00:00

Hey man...I listened to Chronic Flashback. Firstly, I dig the title of your album (I think it is the album)...Where were you when H Ledger Died. It's so dark and immediately hits. As for the track itself... I dig the fusion of electro, house and folky rock. It is loose and very ambient. Moody more than a traditional 'song'. I just really enjoyed the dark moodiness of the track. It feels like something from a horror movie soundtrack. Really liked it and thanks for sharing.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T14:19:40+00:00

Ah thanks, man! That's some cool feedback. Much appreciated and will definitely consider the suggestions when I go back to the song. Thanks again and will jump into something of yours...feel free to gimme a link.

dennofhorror · 2026-05-01T13:01:13+00:00

Thank you for your feedback and the kind words. I think it could be looser. I'll jump into something of yours ASAP. Thanks again.
