Reviews - the results are in (prelude to subtle antimusic)
The following text collates reviews of Lugubrious 78 releases from various sources and at various times, unadulterated but with no context:
The instrumental seems off to me. I also do not like the artist's voice. I enjoyed some of the guitar, but it got messy around halfway through and felt too chaotic for me. I did not enjoy this song at all. I also do not like the lyrics.
Yikes, Vocals aren't great. He sounds out of tune. The drums don't sound too bad, but it could do better. The solo wasn't too bad too. The song should be revamped, I'm sure with better attention to the vocals and maybe other instruments it'd sound better.
I’m sorry, the voice isn’t good, the beat isn’t good either and I would skip if this came up on Spotify or the radio, the beat is kinda piercing and not soothing at all and the voice isn’t smooth either, I’m sorry but please consider a different career
I can’t think of anything good about this song other than maybe the bass line. maybe it’s just not my type of music but this song isn’t for me. There’s a cool guitar solo in there and I like the effects on the guitar but other than that I’d take this one back to the drawing board
It sounds really goofy. Not really sure what he’s going on about or if he even is making sense. There is no potential in this song. The background instruments are cool but the guy sounds horrible. I wouldn’t recommend this song to anybody. They might think I’m crazy.
i do not like it im sorry. the vocals are very poor alongside the background music. It is most definitely not my genre of music. I think it would help if you practice with vocals a little more or find a different genre of music to work through. good luck
Nothing is mixing! The instrumentals sound off and some instruments are a beat behind. The vocalist though I know some singers can get away with it, everything is so off that it makes the vocals sound worse than they are. It's very hard to focus at all, let alone listen. I did not enjoy this song.
He sounds sick and it was definitely off beat with his drums and his singing. didn’t like the harmonica in the background sounds like a total mess in general. There’s a lot of stuff going on and seems overwhelming to listen to and didn’t understand what he was saying, cool drums tho.
The vocals sound like they either have heavy autotune or the man's voice is very shaky. The guitar and other background music is good but the vocals are just not it. It is a very eccentric song but I cannot enjoy it because it is just bad overall.
This song gives me "Will Wood" vibes for some reason. But it's also a bit more on the experimental side of things. I think a better chorus for this sound will actually make this song pop out more! If it stays consistent throughout the whole song, it tends to get a bit boring and people wouldn't want to listen to it. Unless it has a good and catchy chorus. If the band did that, I'm sure this song would blow up two times!
I honestley started laughing. I am not exactly sure what genre it is, maybe some sort of alternative? It kinda sounds like some dad recorded it in his basment. The instrumentals and lyrics arent that bad but the way it is presented does not work.
Honestly not my type at all I really don't like it. I think some of my family would enjoy it though!! I just personally am not really feeling the older vibe that the song is going for but I’m sure others have liked it and it’s just me!
Very jarring start. Sounds very out of tune, would not listen to this song. The guitar is very harsh on the ears. An acoustic guitar may make it better however the vocals need to be adjusted to be more in tune with the beat of the music
I do not like the beginning it throws you off a lot. His voice is not soothing and he is very off beat. I do like the guitar work in the background but i would not listen to this song it is just a lot going on and it doesn’t really speak to me.
Pretty cool, voice kind of reminds me of David Bowie for some odd reason. I think the song is very cool and interesting though, I like the lyrics and vocals and the wacky beat. The song definetely brings many aspects of David Bowie's work into his own.
I like the electric feel of the opening, but I think that the quality of the voice is relatively low and feels a bit deep. I also think the riff is quite repetitive throughout but the guitar melody makes it more interesting. The guitar solo is too long in my opinion.
I like the song, especially the electric guitar and the remix. However, the lyrics and vocals didn't match the music, which I didn't like. Despite that, the song's ending, with its electric guitar solo, was amazing. The beat was quite impressive for this kind of song.
To be honest the lyrics and how they’re sung, sounds almost mocking which doesn’t even match the background sound. I don’t like the tone of voice and the music has too many instruments, it sounds all crammed in without being lined on the metronome. Could be better.
If I was being completely honest, this sou is like the neighborhood teenager band's first song. It does have good production and all of the lyrics do feel on beat. But the voice of the artist does feel like he just recorded it one time and didn't want to fix or retry the vocals.
Sounds maybe indie alternative, is was not the worst but the person doesn't have the best sounding voice. It sounded kind of rakily if that makes sense. Interesting beat and instrumental choice and the I feel like the words and beat work okay but the voice of the person makes it kind of off.
Awful. Who sings songs like this. This wouldn't be my cup of tea very annoying to hear. Sorry but I guess this needs more improvement. People would probably hear it better if the singer would try different technique and style in music. Just bit of different taste for me.
I'm sorry but I don't like the sound of this man's voice it hurts my ears and I'm just not into this type of music whatever you would actually call this type of music I'm not real sure. Hope for the best in your future music creating but not one of your fans here sorry
The vocalist appears to be adhering to the punk genre of music, however if I may be honest the vocalist should work on his vocal tone, hearing and quality as it feels a bit out of tune. It is not a song that I would play or recommend to others as it is now. The electric guitar also seems a bit out of tune.
What is with this guy's voice? He doesn't seem like a very good singer. I feel like I'm at an open mic night. I don't like the music in the background. I just want the song to stop - the music, lyrics, everything. Not my type of song!
The beat is good, but could do without the vocals. The guitar is a good touch and I think this song would've been better without the vocals since the instruments shine. I wouldn't recommend this song solely because of the vocals, but if it was just the background music it would be good.
This song gives me 2000s British punk vibes that I miss. I love the synthesizer in the background. That alone gives me the idea of maybe the 80s which brings me joy of the two decades colliding. I think that he is saying a lot that gives you an idea of his mental concerning the state of the world. I would definitely play this on a night out as I head to my destination to hype me up and get me in a more feral headspace!
I couldn’t sit and listen to this. It’s really an ear sore at this point. I know people actually like this type of music but the instrumental is all over the place, there is no real rhythm to it. Also, the singer is off beat along with it.
The singers voice is very bad and irritating to listen to. The beat is pretty rough too. This feels like something I'd hear in someones basement or at a run down bar. Not a fan at all and would cut my radio off if this came on.
I think this song was absolutely crazy. I think if you create the music a little more catchy and the background music to be a little more on par with the lyrics you could have a crazy song. But other then that I feel it is a great song.
the voice in the intro definitely needs to be worked on. the vocal mixing needs a lot of work and dedication. the beat or instrumental sounds basic and needs more energy to make it sound better. it was a good concept just needs more energy and power to everything.
Honestly, this isn't my type of music, I'm not sure what type of genre this is either but it sounds like something electrical. This type of music would maybe go great with people who are into country, but I'm not completely sure. The sound quality to me is just awful and it doesn't suit my aesthetic, but it could be different for others. I did like the instruments though.
This song is weird. It starts off with the chorus and the vocals are just strange and a bit off putting. They seem to serve no real purpose other than to introduce the bars of electric guitar solos. The lyrics themselves are just overused cliches. For all the energy of the beat, this song is tired.
This song is punk, which is not for me. I appreciate the effort and the artistic vision and the instrumentals. The guitar and bass playing are impressive, but it would be better if they were cohesive. The lyrics and instruments coming into a similar rhythm would be great.
This guy doesn't sound like a decent vocalist to me but I'm giving him a chance, I think everything sounds off beat on purpose, but if you can't sing there's no point in listening if you ask me, the guitars just didn't fit together here !
Old school provocative new wave or pop rock style. The singer had a annoying silly little voice that I had to pause before I could continue to listen. The music was just stall and old. Lyrically I felt the words were trying to be more clever than need be.
This song began with the singer starting with a bold voice. The guitar style was nice and there were some other blended sounds. The song didn’t really blend together well for me. The vocals and music were a little disjointed. I needed more of a catchy sound.
Like the music so far but not a lot of instrumentals in intro. It is an easy song to listen to. Lyrics are pretty good and nice sound and tune. Vocals need more work. Good sound overall and easy to listen to overall. Good vibes to me. Sounds are good.
Oh this is really not my style of music, rhythm or something that I am enjoying listening. The music doesn’t seem to flow or feel disconnected. I also feel the same for the artist singing. Doesn’t feel in tune with the music almost totally separate.
The vocals are weak and sound amateurish. The male vocalist's pitch is very wobbly. His lyrics are clearly enunciated and easy to hear and follow. However, they are not very engaging. He is backed by a somewhat shrill, strident sounding score with a lackluster production, arrangement and composition.
Deconstructing this song, I have to say I like the interplay between the drums and guitar and the production of this is decent, but then there’s the vocal and it just jarred with me. Weirdly tho, I liked it as an overall song and think others will too.
The vocals are way off track. They are far too stylized and off-key. The backing track has some good fusion like sections, but is not that well produced. The lyric writing has some merit, but the vocals need to be a lot better. The arrangement is decent.
There is quite a unique and memorable feel to this sound and style for sure but personally I just didn't really connect with the vocal style
I like the quirkiness of this track but just felt it was a bit too artsy
Great guitars and cool melody. I like teh energy and emotions.
Being totally honest - I wasnt really keen on this track - it felt very disjointed to me. Sorry for the honest feedback, would rather be transparent with you
I found the drum beat really engaging, and the bass guitar sounded fantastic—definitely a highlight of the track! However, I felt that the vocal performance leaned a bit too experimental for my taste, which made it harder for me to connect with it emotionally. This is purely subjective, though!
It's a non-trivial and stylish punk track. The production is pretty decent, everything is well-mixed. The vocals are interesting and charismatic, but the way it is performed is a bit out of my taste. The guitars are stylish and vibey and go well with technical drums. But conceptually, the song differs a bit from what I'm after
Nice indie rock sound. I enjoyed the overall vibes on this one. Everything seems to sit in the right place mix wise but I'm afraid the songwriting didn't grab me enough
