Re: This song should be 2 minutes long

Looking at the guitar part, it is pretty varied.
Same riff, but built upon with layers

Yeah. Essentially the same kinda pattern as Backlit, by Isis. Repetitive, but evolving

Re: This song should be 2 minutes long

Listening to Panopticon, They do start with a single kinda riff, and then develop it towards a heavy part

Re: This song should be 2 minutes long

I only have In The Absence Of Truth, of which i only really enjoy the first song.
Oceanic is supposed to be good, but i'm pretty content with Panopticon.

Re: This song should be 2 minutes long

just some made up pseudo-stuff :)

echo came to mind from some dos batch scripts. Like, in some school computers they booted to ms-dos, then it displayed own made menu, which was done by creative use of echo call.
