Press Reviews Garageband.com reviews: (www.garageband.com/emanate) Oddly effective This is overall quite odd - there's something in the melody, the vocal treatment, the instrumentation, even the structure which makes it unpindownable. Thought-provoking too. What I expect from the 'alternative' genre is something that questions my assumptions about what works and why. The vast majority of tracks fail to do that, but this succeeded. Good job. - laura_song London, United Kingdom 5-4 baby Great sounding guitars. I always wonder how the guitars can follow the drums when they do that off beat 5-4 timing. Very technical...I these guys really challenge themsleves intead of setlling for the elementary. Definitly some alice in chains influence in the vocals. Kinda eerie the similarities. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Production, Lyrics, Melody, Beat, Mood - NiNeVoLT Lakeside, Virginia Dancing Guitars I really think that the lead guitar part and the accoustic part dance around each other really nicely. They compliment each other well. The hollow echo effect on the vocals could be a little less dominant. The singer has a great set of pipes... an uncolored vocal track would really sound great. A really short track...(this is something I never say) I would like to hear more. I didn't really hear a hook, but the guitar lead maybe hook enough...I totally dig the lead part. Sounds very well written and performed. Extra Credit: Guitars, Production, Mood - mentalfloss420 Ames, Iowa 4 Reel Enjoyed the track. Vocals show obvious talent. Song kicked my ass thru-out. Loved the crescendo of the snare in the beginning! Rhythm guitar were very satisfying. Chorus rocked. Only set back IMO would be the "sudden" ending... Good luck with the band! Extra Credit: Male Vocals Special Award: Most Rocking Track - Aslan Memphis, Tennessee Interesting song Guitars have a unique tone. Vocals are great. All around good sound. Dont get rid of your singer. Song has a great feel to it. Kind of an outerspace vibe. Are you guys going into space? Can i come? Good job guys. - shabgoid Not another screamer The vocalist has a really unique voice, and no that's not a euphamism for bad...I like the vibe you guys have...sort of a goth meets dirt rock meets london suede. I like the flange on the guitar in the verse, it adds sort of an ethereal feel. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Lyrics Special Award: Most Rocking Track - pristinebass Terre Haute, Indiana Craziness = Brilliance Guitar is out of hand here. I dig all the ideas, and I hear what you are trying to do. Vocals are extremely different, but I really like it. It's kind of like a Jazz orientated misfits. I really do like this and am nominating you on orignality. Keep up the nice work. Extra Credit: Male Vocals - ThunderClap321 Highlands Ranch, Colorado Refreshing Trippy Guitar Work! Sounds very far away and mystical. I like the mood a lot. You honestly don't sound like any body, which is nice. The vocals are emotional and original. The chorus is kind of cool as well. Great Job! Extra Credit: Mood - InParallel Los Angeles, California Love a song without boundries! Where do I begin? My first love of the song was the off harmonies of the vocals as the song built. But to my suprise the changes direction. I loved the diversity and dynamics of the song. The drummer was able to compliment the changes well also.great vocal emotion. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Mood - jimmychicago Elgin, Illinois Transformed my golden ears Great song. loved the bending vocals and harmonies. wonderful percussion. You have a very original sound. Some of the harmonies reminded me of early Jefferson Airplane. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Beat, Mood - jimmychicago Elgin, Illinois Awesome vocals The singer had a very rich voice and a large range of vocals. The arrangement was a bit confusing... it didn't seem too organized to me. Nice song, just not really my taste. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Production Special Award: Coolest Chill-Out Track - kornhatemachine Bethesda, Maryland yo clean guitar riff contrasts with the heavily effect riddled vocals. but good original song and this is the kinda band i would go check out if they played in my town. good luck. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Lyrics - augustwest Goleta, California Definately Original Enjoyed the funky bass line. Vcals were cool. It had an erie funky weird twisted kind of sound. - gbow Denver, Colorado Great Piece ! Have no idea who you sound like........But I like what I hear. It is very different, it not very hard being different, but there is a nice feel and style about your music. Everything seems perfectly balanced, fucking hell......the more I hear the more I like it. Thumbs up, great piece. - The_Purves Smidstrup, Hvalsø, Denmark Good Baritone Voice It is good to hear a strong, lower voice on GB (or anywhere). The song is interesting and quite different from what I've heard up here thus far. The bass rocks in this songs and the effects on the vocals work with this sound. I'm not as big of fan of the guitar parts in the opening and breaks. I like the solo, however. I wasn't counting, but it seems like the guitars in the opening were playing in a different time sig. than the song in general, which is a trick I do like, but I personally wasn't drawn in until the vocals hit and then I was very drawn in. The out-of-time backing vocals work and give the song a cool, drunken feel. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Bass, Beat, Mood - Leroy Minneapolis, Minnesota sweet sweet tones on the guitar. The rythm track (guitar was on point) I really liked the vocals. You guys are a good band. Nice vocal harmonies. Keep it up. Thanks for rocking! - madeyesun Seattle, Washington great original vocal harmony i dig the vocal harmonies here, kinda twisted and quite original. nice stripped down dark sound here. i can hear alice in chains influence, but not at all copycat style - you definitely got your own thing going on here. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Mood - qsystems Brooklyn, New York love the guitar!!!!!!!! shows great musicianship, great guitar and bass awsome drums, good vocals, creates a smoked filled beer dark club mood. good sound - scurvy West Milwaukee, Wisconsin nothing comes to mind... as far as who you sound like. It's got a pretty cool vibe to it though. I like the acoustic guitar. Vocals sound good and have an interesting style. I'm not real big fan of delay but it sounds alright and seems to fit the song fairly well. I also like how you panned the different vocal tracks. Good drumming and bass playing, let's not overlook that. The arrangement is okay. It works fine, no real big changes or anything like that but the song flows right along. Pretty cool, can't really put a finger on who you remind me of. That's probably a good thing. Good luck. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Mood - vmitch2 Tacoma, Washington catchy riff I really like the guitar riff on the intro. The vocals weren't what I expected, but they're still preaty good. The tune is arranged well, very organized, and the band knows what they're doing. You sound like a spanish mariachi band thats on drugs. Very original, very cool. - Shpeez Boston, Massachusetts Tripped out loungy rock! I really wish bands would ask who they sound like. It's practically an impossible science determining who is who. There are many influences that come out, defining that without coming off insulting is really tough. I have no idea who you sound like. Arrangement seems well for this swooning trippy rock tune. Vocals sound real wigged out at times. It's neat! LOVE THE VOCALS! Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Drums, Bass, Beat - risingsoul Columbus, Ohio I don't know what this guy's talking about but it so This stratocaster/ES delay soaked thing is pretty sweet. It sounds nice layered over the acoustic guitars. I enjoy those johnny cash baritone vocals too. The bass seems to be working very well in there too. You can never have enough reverb and delay. good Job. I can't really name who this would sound like. Maybe Pink Floyd I suppose. there's that stratocaster/ES riff again. Lyrics indicate that this is a very sophisto-acid driven bit. the vocal harmonies own this piece too. Extra Credit: Male Vocals, Guitars, Production, Mood Special Award: Coolest Chill-Out Track - RanmanPSU State College, Pennsylvania dark track who do you sound like? the tea party. very dark/melodic... with deep male vocals. overall the band sounds tight..great drumwork. melodically this track is good too. the track is well structured... rises and pulls back in all the 'right places'. good work. - LMN8R Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
