I think I would have liked that song if it had been half the length. There were some good ideas there but not enough for five minutes. I actually like the kind of clicky percussive noises even though I hate when that same sound is used in rap music, oddly enough. The distorted and somewhat quiet harsh vocals were pretty nice but I think some variation there would have helped. I think it's cool how this is technically electronic music (I think, unless that's actually a real guitar being used) but it's made to sound metallic. It's interesting for sure but not quite captivating enough.

I really like the energetic guitars in the beginning, but then from there, the song calms down a bit and ... doesn't seem to go much of anywhere afterward. The style itself isn't bad at all, it's just something I've heard before and would need something "more" to keep my attention. I like the yelled vocals starting around the 3:15 mark and the music around that point, though.

The intro section reminds me of some 80´s action movie or video game. When it started; I didn´t expect any vocals but I´m glad that they´re clean and not your typical pitch shifted screaming. Also the bass line had my head moving through the whole song. Definitely something good for driving.
Edit: commented on the wrong song, now fixed it xD

Wow, definietly not your everyday bm project. The intro riff is really beautiful as well as the atmosphere of the entire song. The vocals are very fitting(they have a xasthurish feel to them). In my opinion, they overdid it with the "bzzzz" sound around the middle of the song, but except that I really liked it. Will check out more of it ... Are you sure you listened to the song I posted? The one I posted was industrial, not metal.

For the song you posted: Wow, those vocals are pretty insane! And as most of you know by now, I LOVE insane vocals. As for the music, I see Metal Archives calls this "black/doom metal", and I would agree, but it doesn't really have the "atmosphere" I usually hear in doom metal. It more or less just sounds like slow black metal. The track does change a lot, which helps keep one's interest. That acoustic section near the middle of the song was a nice touch. The bells and reverb around 4:30 are definitely cool. Overall I really like the end of the song, with the dark atmospheric stuff. The rest of the song doesn't sound bad, for sure. More CBM / unblack

It's pretty good. I like the synths they used but a lot of the guitar riffs could have been better. The little solo at the end of the song is nice though. The vocals were good compared to what I've heard from most Latin American bands but still not as good as I like. A lot of the CBM from that region just fails to fully capture my attention to be honest. I think this song needs more variety. An atmospheric break in the middle would have been very nice.

A lot of variation here, but not so much that the song doesn't seem to go anywhere. Definitely cool. I like the acoustic-ish sections, and I like the blasting sections, too! Makes for a very "emotional" listening experience. The interlude in the middle might have gone on a little too long, and the song seems to end rather abruptly, but otherwise this is really solid! The combination of harsh vocals with just a hint of clean vocals works well too, in my opinion - again, there's variation, but not too much. Now for some Christian power metal:

I´m really not into power metal, but I have to admit this one has so much energy and a great positive vibe to it. My favorite part are the keys; I could imagine seeing them in a club while dancing with some girls haha. The guitar solo felt kinda cliche, but the drummer and bassist locked in nicely. All in all, a good song to introduce someone to metal.

Very melancholic and atmospheric. I love the bell sounds - they definitely add something. Overall the instruments work very well together. At first I was very skeptical about the "fuzzy" production, but I think it works well here. The silence before the ambient section [in the middle of the song] was a little too abrupt -- like, I wasn't sure if that was the end of the song or not. But that, too, sounds nice. It also helps break up the monotony a bit -- I feel the song is a little too repetitive for its own good. The progression back into "metal" territory afterward is surprisingly seamless.

First of all, the artwork is killer & I did hear Nephesh before not this song though. The symphonic instrumentation and vocals have some kind of Dimmu or Kamelot vibe to them. The instrumentation is really beautiful also the song picks up heaviness and speed around the middle but I can´t deny that I was left a bit disappointed; I hoped that the vocals would change the range/style a bit to make the ending section more epic. Sadly didn't happen but still a great production & nice atmospheric piece. Warning: might be to much for some:

The guitar riffs... all... like... two... guitar riffs... throughout the entire song... aren't bad at all. Overall this song seems to me like they had a lot of cool ideas, but had no idea how to implement them. I like the clean vocals, of course. And the other effects throughout the song. The guitars are way too repetitive, though. Like, this is extremely monotone. Even the clean vocals become repetitious after awhile. The inclusion of other kinds of vocals help change things up, but it just seems like the same few ideas being repeated over and over (hence, like I said "had no idea how to implement them"). The atmosphere is pretty cool -- reminds me of stuff like Reverorum, but without the... well, the variety.

Wow never heard of them before. The style of riffing and atmosphere reminds me of a lot of bands, although I can really point my finger in a direction. There´s so much going on, in one second I get a Virgin Black feel in the other it´s Grave Declarations progressivity and in the next moment we´re in the death metal realm. I feel, that the growling vocals could have been a lil better mixed but besides that, the song is awesome.
