Alright guys, lets get this thing going. I would like to start with getting the Rhythm/Keys but all can upload at will! Let's get the audio nailed down and then work on the video.
Rhythm Guitar
Chast,Xicoria: intro and first verse/chorus
Superize,Kaz: second verse/chorus
Wollace03,Sense: third verse/chorus
skennington: outro for solo's
Key's
Siggum
Matt23
Lead Guitar
Outlaw2112,Pizzaoro: 25 sec each during intro (51 seconds long)
Botoxfox,Nick325: (solo begins at 2:59 and ends at 3:47, this gives them roughly 23 sec ea)
tjchep,DeepRoots,Tolek,Enucleation: (solo's during outro beginning at 4:44 and extending it to 6:20, this would give each 24 sec.
Vocals
Caelum: first verse/chorus, backing vocals on second chorus
JeroneKole: second verse/chorus, backing vocals on first chorus
split the third verse and both sing chorus
Here's a shortcut to the drums and bass.

Ill wait til the rhythm is laid down and then add my solo... I did the first 25 seconds for my solo
Sounds like the instructors are way ahead of us...
Would it be better to upload where i want the solo to start and upload the solo only on here and have one person edit it all together
Ill upload my solo over the original song and then upload the solo by it self and let you know where to add it when editing it
would that be better?
Ok heres my take on it
the solo starts right after the first note is played in the main riff..
there is a small echo ill have to remove... cant hear it in the solo with the backing track but with the solo alone you can hear it at the end of the last lick... should i remove it or is it noticeable
The backings sounding good. I'll try get the keys recorded as soon as i can.
Got tabs for the song so use right one
Little rhythm variation for the solos at the end...thought's?
variation is good... its a cover not a copy so it should sound a little different
I agree Outlaw. Btw mods, thanks for pinning the thread....(Smells)
Come on guys, Lets hear it! We need rhythm takes to get the solos in....
This is my take. I did a clean run on verse and chorus. Feel free to add any FX and effects to the guitar part and mix it.
I didn't include this recording with backing track because I don't really know where is the 3rd Verse and Chorus will be in this extended song. Thank you, Skennington!
And maybe add some guitar like the bass line on the main riff...
like this...
Hi!
so here´s my take of the verse 3 and chorus..
SOTW_wollace03.mp3 ( 1.27MB )
: 381
and without backing
SOTW_wollace03_OB.mp3 ( 1.26MB )
: 344
until when do you need the video???
i can make it on the weekend if this is early enough...
i am really looing forward to the finished song...
keep on rocking..
OK guys, didn't want to set a deadline but the instructors are all most done so we need to get a move on things.
Deadline for rhythm sections, (10-07-08) This gives you guys a week so hopefully you have been working on it a bit If you are having problems, just say so and we will work it out. We need to get the complete rhythm track together so the lead guys can work on their solo's.
You guys working on the key's, It would be nice to have these takes by then as well.
Let's get this one put together and see how it turns out!!
DAMN COMPUTER!!! sorry, just freaks me out
Check my profile for the topic with info on that, but it might take a while before I figure out what's with the thing...
I've got the verse down on the keyboard so ill try and get everything else done this week.
Awesome Matt! May need you for some rhythm if some members drop out...
OK guys, heres something to get you motivated so I don't have to do this alone....Me trying to sing.. It's the first verse and chorus. I went ahead and recorded the guitars as well to give you an idea of the rhythm in case your wondering. Let's get this thing done so I can remove this upload
I soooo wish I could record vocals
I'm prety sure that I've uploaded my take, but looks like I didn't
I have two versions, tell which one you like best! Then I'll upload my take without backing.
There ya go!!
Can someone pls choose between my V1 and V2?
EDIT: I just heared, V2 is better. Still pls choose one, but not just on quality, choose whether you just like the classic lick, or the little twist I gave it. Also On V2 i played on a bit to far, I'll edit that when uploading the guitar only mp3.
V2 for me It needs a little twist!
Here is the Verse and Chorus you asked for Skennington.
Thanks man and let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks Outlaw
Looks like you are the only one that has listened to it so far.
Rock on!
Nice indeed skillet! Thanks for jumping in on this one.
OC, go ahead and upload a take man...
Here's my, guitar only and some added effects

ok her is my part
Hi guys,
Heres a rough mix of what we have so far... I feel we probably need to all get on the same page with regards to the tone. We don't need to sound exactly like each other, but if were close, the song will flow much better. Here's what I would like to do... If you guys don't want to record again, then I'll work with what we have.
Skillet..Tone is great man and timing is also so I think I;m good with you're take. I added the intro up til you began the verse.
Kaz... I would like to have a little more drive out of your take. I added some effects but I'm limited with what Reaper comes with. I have no add-ons.I'll be adding more of your take also. Timing is good
SensE.. I appreciate the clean take, but as I said, I'm limited to the effects I have. I tried to do what I could with it. If I could get a take from you with some drive, it would be great!
Superize.. I think your guitar may be a tadge out of tune man..maybe just me but you guys have a listen and see. Also, I would like to have the bridge section in your take as well. If not, then I'll add it. Timing is good.
Wollace03... Little more drive and I'm good to go with your take.
As for myself.... Still need to tighten the timing up a bit and throw some ideas at the end section for the guys to solo over. Think I need to take a little chorus off as well.
So let's discuss and put this one to bed... Thank you for participating in this guys!
I also went ahead and put in Outlaw's opening solo, added some sections here and there so you can see where we need to fill the gaps.
Looks like I should add my solo soon.
I just got a new guitar, so maybe I'll redo it!
edit: I believe it's a bit out of time now, can you pls check?
Congratz on your new guitar, kaznie! Which one is it?
I think I won´t upload a solo because I have no other possibility to record myself except from a cam. So, my place is empty.
Check my profile to see my post about it, it's an Ibanez SA 08 limited edidtion in Blue Arctic frost.
If all is happy with there takes, we shall move on... I'll remix and get the final track down.
Hey skenny im afraid iv only got the verse so far so would you like me just to record that now or shall i try and get the chorus too, but it would take longer?
There it is Pumped the bass, and some more effects, and of course a new guitar with humbucker, that's better for this stuff then single coil I guess.. Hope ya like it!
ok here ya go dude, 2 vocal tracks, one with backing one without, use what you want, delete what you dont
their all 1 take tracks as I havnt got time to do it anymore, got my drummer to record for our song now
i have a cold so it sounds a bit stuffy, ive taken all the effects off the track without backing so its a dry take but i did edit the track with backing.
sotw_vox_wb.mp3 ( 6.07MB )

Sweet... I like it, good job
do you want me to work on some more solos, since no one else seems to be doing any?
Nice job muntahunta! I like it too! Thanks bro!
@ Kaz, that take sounds much better with your new guitar. I'll mix it in.
Sorry guys, its been a while. Is the rhythm done? I'm waiting for that to record my solo.
OK guys, I think I have added some Grey hair today with this mix Anyway, heres what I have, everybody's take is included that posted one. So you guys soloing... Here you go!! I hope somebody will through something cool over the delayed vocals at the end of the actual solo break..
dude... what happened to my solo at the beginning?
Sorry, Skenny. I have not keeping track what's going on with this collab lately. This is my second upload with little more drive and reverb.
OK, sounds good and I am very happy that things are moving along
The track mix sounds great, except for the vocals. Not that the vocals sound bad it is just the timing. They are way in front of the mix. Almost like it was recorded with the tempo of another track. I think we need to fix this . If you need help just ask bro.
If I understand your mix right you want my solo at around 2:57 - 3:45 or there about. If not please let me know because I wanted to cut my final track tomorrow. If you need anything else just let me know.
Typo: Sorry.
Here's the mix with keys..... Moved the vocals around a bit and changed some volume levels..Sounds good IMO..
Anybody else going to add a solo? If not, we are going to wrap this thing up.
I think I can do a solo. Is it possible to hand in my take end December? On Christmas, I´ll get a Toneport UX1, so the recording would be much better and without backing track.
I really will try and get my keys recorded soon, but it is proving rather difficult.
I use my camcorder as microphone. So I get not a really good audio quality plus I can´t get rid of the backinf track.
Yeh id like to do a solo, but how long will it have to be and where in the track does it go?
I should get my solo done soon, sorry i hjavent reallt worked on it but Tuesday at the latest (VERY VERY LATEST) I will try and have it.
If I dont have it uo after tuesday just skip me.
I had a little thingy about the singing, I think the verse is sang very nice, but on the chorus I'd like it more like Smoooooooke on the waaaater and not smoooke on the waaaateeeeer. Does anyone understand that??
I understand you guys on the vocals. However, this is a cover and opinions will vary. I think Munta put his own spin on the song which IMO, is better than just singing it the way the original goes. There again, opinions will vary.
@ Tolek, go ahead and record a take man. Can you give me the audio file along with video? Maybe use some headphones in order to not record the backing?
Cool Tolek, we'll work it out!
i did do smooooooooooooooke on the waaaaaaaaater lol... im sure at some point someone edited my original file though :S it sounds nothing like the file i have on my laptop.
infact... you can hear the difference from what i uploaded to the one included in the mix... when did that happen :S
I recorded a few solos before deciding on my take... youre welcome to use them if needed
heres one of them, ill upload more later if you want
its on page 2 or 3 on this thread lol
Thanks Munta...Thought you had 2 files for some reason..lol
Anyway, heres a new mix. IMO, and thanks to you guys, I do believe this one sounds better.. Let me know what you think and if need be, I'll keep working on it.
NEW MIX
I like it a lot man!!!!
Everyone should be happy with this. Right everyone? Lets not change it again and just get it done.
The backing track is very tight and things are mixed very well. The only thing that I don't like (which I didn't from the start is the ending symbol crashes) and I know that's a small thing to pick at. It just kills my ear and I reach for the volume knob. What do you think?
Others have submitted there solo's but if you still need something I'm here. I have another project I'm getting ready to work on that requires tuning down a half step and a different setup for my guitar so I would like to know before doing that. Should be in about a week.
I like how it's been done. The vocal is awesome I think. The vocal sounds like...Hmm...I can't tell in a second.
How about a fade to the sound of a fire burning? Hence smoke, burn baby burn and then a water sizzle when it hits the flame.
What do you guys think about this ending?
Very cooollll.. ending
I liked it a lot.
Cool, glad you guys liked it. I really want to replace the match strike with a flare gun though..
Or a rocket lancher
Rock on bro!
Sorry its taken so long, I hope it's not too late. If it isn't then here's my solo for 3.00mins to about 3.20.
Nice Matt!!
im liking the last mix
everything sounds cool, from the keys to vocals to guitar to fire engine.... brilliant
Glad you like it man!
Matt, I have your solo mixed in and was waiting on Tolek to get his Toneport. If no others are interested, I will close this one for now. If you want to add a solo, pm me. I'll mix any others who want in.
I just recorded my take. It could be much better if I started early with it. It´s mostly improvised, so it might sound a bit weird.
Sorry that you had to wait so long. Anyway, here it is:
SOTW_with_BT.mp3 ( 1.44MB )
: 200
SOTWnoBT.mp3 ( 858.43K )
: 206
No worries man, thanks for jumping in and I think you have found you a nice tone with that Toneport.. I'll get it mixed in!
How are we here?
Here's the latest...Matt23, Tolek's and anotherpiece from Outlaw is in there. Still room for more so who's up next...Monte, Matt Vai, Can, Skillet, Roger...You see where I'm going with this...
the part after he says fire in the sky is the main part i was trying to show you... its a little lick after he says that
all the other stuff i recorded just goofin around
This is the eternal collab.
When can we hear the final mix finally?
If you need another solo, I'm up for it!
Been busy this week Steve, but have no fear! I've been coming up with a few ideas over the week and will get to recording a sample tomorrow. You can then advise on whether its ok before a final take.
Cool mix, Skenny. There are some really good vocals and solos in it.
About my solo: could you make it a bit more loud? Additionally, you only put a part of it in the mix.
Here's a taster Already taken up 40 seconds though, have a tapping piece I wanted to put in after this but don't want to stop anyone else from putting in a solo?
sotw_test.mp3 ( 2.51MB )
: 172
Any news?
Any news?
We have a lot of new members since this thing started so I'd liked to give anyone interested a shot. Deal is, we have room for 3 to 4 more solo's. They need to be around 20 sec's in length.
Have a listen to the track, starting at 5:23 up til 6:28. At 20 sec's, I could fit 3 in here. Could possibly fit one more elsewhere. Hope some of you decide to jump in, first come, first served!
