umm it was an improvised riff i decided to put some backing and extra lead parts to...its a guitar instrumental done in an afternoon with no real planning about half a second latency on recording and no sound to hear it while i was recording...in all honesty its a mircle it turned out as well as it did...and dont ask me what the name is about i dont have a clue...just trying to get attention probably.

any constructive criticism on my playing style/technique would be much appreciated

Man this song does it all for me its got a good lead and rhythm.....not much you need  to fix except for the end just a little slower and have it die off a bit.

really nice.  can definitely hear the metallica (or similar) influences.  works really well for me until the last 20 seconds when it gets a little over-complex.  maybe could do with something simple to hold it down (maybe some sort of bass line or chords or something even if its a long way back on the mix).  this would make a kinda foundation for the rest of the guitar parts to work over - stop it from sounding muddled.  really good tho - best thing I've heard so far!

Good start. Keep it up and you could have something here. It needs to go somewhere else though. Like a chours or a bridge. Nice chops, and a decent recording, but its missing something. Don't know what.

i dunno---i kind of like the build on the high notes!

i agree with transistor on this one: i like the distortion.  it may not be something to put lyrics to, but definitely cool to listen to as an instrumental.  as it was my job in a band i used to play in, i can envision extra synth strings going off in the background once it gets towards the end.  but, hey, that's just my thought

i like.

thanks everyone for the positive feedback, i'm amazed to hear that you liked it. although this was never meant to be a proper song, what it needed was planning, decent production, and a hellova lot longer than an afternoon. but if i get this kind of response for something which i consider to be a rushed job, then i think i'll definately put some real music up here sometime soon.

thanks for the feedback

Excellent guitar composition over all, especially for it being improvised.  Since it is the  Longest Night you might consider drawing out the ending and not making it so abrupt.  I love it -- post more!

Nice expression, you should consider putting a little more time in to it.  As you can see people like it.  Good job.

Its good ur on your way to be a good guitarist but my advice to you is similar to "faze 1" i think you should consider your identity a little bit more, and you should go deeper through techniques:) keep up!
