My proggiest epic yet!

I'm pretty inexperienced with the instruments but I managed to play with my limits and come up with a pretty crazy prog song. It's very 'epic' in sound after the calm intro and I think I did a good job.

The other 4 songs there have ridiculous titles related to my part-time job. The real names are "Harto", "Crime vs Crime", "Death of Zitro" and "A Tribute to Ale".

I should say that a part is heavily influenced by Iron Maiden's "Seventh son of a Seventh son"

Any comments? A place where I might edit is the guitar improv in minute 5... so that I could plan out the soloing.

_Part 1 : 0:00 - 2:41 :  Acoustic oriented section with nice melodies.
_Part 2 : 2:41 - 3:34 : My favorite part. a cool melody and chord progressions in 11/8 building up into an extremely intense rocker with electric guitars and synthesizers.
_Part 3 : 3:34 - 5:13 : Iron Maiden influenced suspense music with intense funeral-style refrains.
_Part 4 : 5:13 - 6:20 : a very soft background music with an improvisational echoed guitar leading to the main theme of Part 1 with different arrangements
_Part 5 : 6:20 - 7:35 : Dark Piano in 15/8 transforming into chaotic horror music with a bit of avant-garde.

oh man, musicianship is the last thing I should be commented on. If you play keyboards for 1-2 years and guitar for 6-9 months ... you can play this easily. (I suck at playing instruments)

Thanks, but It's most likely to be my last song. I got tired of playing instruments, it's not my thing anymore. This is my farewell song "End on a High Note"

Good stuff, nevertheless!

Very nice stuff indeed!  Bravo!

I actually take that back. What was supposed to be a release of negative feelings ended up being something pretty decent. It's the track that automatically plays in myspace. It's a dark symphonic ballad maybe a bit influenced by opeth and Flower Kings' "trading my soul" about someone lonely who wants attention and ends up doing something crazy/tragic to achieve it.

I might also work on other songs later and a follow up to the one I posted in the initial post.
