Sounds like God Speed You! Black Emperor
Great song, I really find it great! First of all because it's a cool, original rock song, and second of all because it sounds like some of those wierd rock bands from the '90s, especially "God Speed You! Black Emperor", with it's kind of dark, distorted guitars. So yeah, sounding like God Speed You was very unexpected, and a real thumbs up.
I personally prefer "The Down Pore" rather than "The Flood". Part 8 was too dull, nothing was going on really... And that made it quite uninteresting... It acctually sounds like a broken arcade heh...
But "The Down Pore" on the other hand was really good. I liked the fact that the guitars had a good suspense feeling to them from 0:53 to 1:14. But then I wasn't too fond of the part that started at 2:35. It was a little too wierd, and the distorted guitar sounds that started at 2:55 weren't that great... It seems like they didn't go well with the rest of the song. But overall "The Down Pore" was really good, with a nice, dark feeling to it, and it was a good song to create a scene with.
Before I start with the scene, I'de like to give a few suggestions:
Keep that dark, dirty, distorted sound your guitar has, it's very unusual and very cool.
It's a good thing to try and mix different sounds together, but be careful to not mix sounds that are too different and end up not going well together like the high pitched guitar riffs at 2:55, I'de get rid of those and maybe find darker ones.
As for the tempo, either keep it nice and slow, OR, you could try speeding it up and making it a little more violent, that could work.
Detroit, 15:44 P.M.
It's a slightly rainy afternoon in Detroit. The sky is grey, the rain darkens the asphalt street, making it black and shiny. The only colors around are either grey or dark, no bright color whats so ever...
Two police inspectors are waiting for a prime suspect in their car, waiting for him to show up. While they wait, they practically don't speak to each other. They just lay there, looking through the wet wind shield, drinking coffee. The hours pass by while they're waiting, and then all of a sudden they see him coming, walking up the street torwards them. He then steps through two big metal doors. The inspectors get out of their car and make their move, and they start to follow him. They walk by the metal doors that lead to an open area, surrounded with small concrete buildings. But it's not as if you had a full view on everything; more small buildings were placed a bit everywhere giving anyone the opportunity to hide.
The inspectors start walking around silently, pistols in their hands, receiving cold thin rain drops on their faces, looking for this suspect. they keep walking, until the inspector placed behind is shot from an unknown position. He falls on the ground, his partner starts running, and hides behing a wet concrete wall.
He lifts his pistol near him, ready to shoot at anything that moves. He tries to hear the suspect, but doesn't hear anything. Then a bullet hits on the wall right behind him, practically touching and wounding him. He turns around, shoots a couple times, but no ones behind. He then runs torwards another group of empty grey/white concrete buildings. As he approaches a dark alley, he appears a shadow moving away in front of him. "How could that be? Is there several of them?" He slowly walks torwards the shadow but it disapears. At that moment footsteps can be heard behind him. A dark silhouette comes, holding a pistol. The inspector slowly lifts his weapon torwards the man, so does he.
Outside the area, out on the street, two gun shots can be heard.
This review is WAY too long, but maybe you enjoyed it anyway.
