Here is my Zombie-song! I pictured a scenario when u wake up and there's nobody left alive and u have no idea what's waiting 4 u outside...


I really wanted to record some creepy vocals, but i couldnt get my microphone this week, so i made it an instrumental.
Enjoy!! ^^

Edit: Awesome!!! 3rd place! :D... I've uploaded a louder and better quality version for the people who want to use it in some flash animation/game.

Lovr the song...

The only bug I got id when the keyboards take the spot at the 1:44 point.
Other than that the sound is good and the stucture is sound..

Alright, wow...The intro is mysterious and foreboding, and it IS sort of like waking up and looking around to find that not only are you all alone, everything outside is ransacked and you have no choice but to go out and face it.

Man, the tone of all your instruments is so on point. I must admit, that instead of seeing zombies during the majority of the song, I saw Steve Vai, immersed in smoke with his hair blowing wildly in the air. That's not a bad thing, this song is just so melodic it's epic. The drums could be a little more vamped up, I suppose.

This is one of the coolest, most up-my-alley songs I have heard in a long time. The first thirty seconds are the only hints of zombie during the piece, but god damn if I care because the song is so good. But I do care; I am judging. And while this song is insanely good, it isn't as zombie-ly good as some of the others.

My Score: 9.0

I like this intro because it totally reminds me of the 80s zombie movies I love :D Then it becomes a bit too linkin parkish for me. Well not really, I mean it's a great composition! Would totally fit as background music for a zombie scene/movie. I just found your pads were way too loud compared to your lead guitar and drum and stuff. So the mix isn't the best but a great effort!

Got the feelin

I love the electronic aspect of it, the intro is really creepy and I felt what you were trying to convey. This is exactly what I want to hear more of, awesome job!

This starts of very quiet and soft and rushes into a welcomed harder, chunky guitar melody. This type of guitar playing, implies dispair and struggle. The rhythm section plays very tight, you have good skill with your instrumentation. I was rocking and tapping my foot to the easy to follow beat. This song painted a scenario, right in line with the contest criteria. Sweet job on this! 8.5

InYourDreams responds:

Yeah... Zombies beware, couse ur days are over now. Im gonna get my revenge...
