wow nice one.i like the vocals!a stand out from the other covers.
is the back up vocals an effect or is it sung by someone else?

 

[Shredaholic]

WOW! Really awesome vocals!! And the backup harmonized very well too. Good job!

 

[wynstan]

Thanks... well the harmonics is made by the vocal herself. so what she did was to do abit mixing.

anything we can improve on?

 

[fiqthefallen]

[shredrat]

[kerplunk182]

[Shredaholic]

[wynstan]

well.. i am in singapore and she is in US =)

 

[fiqthefallen]

whoa..... so you guys recorded in your respective areas and multi layer it?

 

[wynstan]

yupz u r correct.. we both rec our parts.. then we mix them together. =)

Wow, that was pretty good. I don't think there's any improvement I can suggest. I was a little confused by the sudden pauses in the first verse.

I think there may have been some clipping on the loud notes .. some of them sound a bit rough. That can happen if you normalize to 100%, so usually I use 98%. It can also happen if your microphone level is too high during recording.

Also one or two bits were out of time, but I'm sure you knew that It must be tough doing the recording in two countries.

Vocals abit too stylistically nasally for me, decent harmonies though.
Guitar is pretty standard, just chords.
These acoustic covers of Umbrella are overdone though, yours is pretty much just like the others.

Although I find the song really irritating, you did a good cover. Definitely much less irritating than the original version. In fact, it pwns it!

 

[PatheinRaindropMoe]

a good cover!

Credit to the original version too. Coz WITHOUT it, there wont be so many COVERS for the song, rock style, metal style.

 

[Alice9]

very cool.

I actually prefer very much MrK's version, but it's just one guy's opinion. But these covers are all over the place as well, good effort though!
