that was the coolest thing i've ever seen to a floyd song! your style is in ever frame of this and you certainly don't disappoint... to use an old-timey expression.
this is perfect. perfect illustration of the song, of its dynamics... and creating a world that's seemingly only unto this song. great stuff!

...so, i'm doing my part to push it farther down the page.
i want to know from that guy what he thought made that animation bad?
it's flash, not everyone can be "prowlies at the river," but damn, your unique artistic vision shines through the art in this, it really does!
i agree with you, that sometimes it seems like if it doesn't have an explosion, the word "fuck" AND nudity or the mention of genitalia, then there's a whole subset of the NG population that thinks it's crap. the reasons for this prejudice are as varied as the users on ng, but i admire your unwillingness to even accept mobrodaddy's opinion as valid, because it's not... and neither is mine.

i usually hate stick figures, but this worked. it was a flash about ideas for a flash, which could have made this really funny or really bad. it was REALLY FUNNY!
actually, when y athink about it, this flash about a fake idea for a flash is better than half of the flashes about real ideas in the portal.
sad, but kudos to you for the comedy!
Author's Response:
Yeah I know what your saying about the stick figures. The last flash I had entered was stick figures (full on) and I learned my lesson a little. Although the characters aren't extemely detailed they are not complete stick figures. As I said in my response to Roboprez, I need to get a drawing board. I know what you mean about some of the flashes/ideas people submit to the flash portal. I've seen some crap. Thanks for the kudos.

"sounds like a british action show theme song..."
...but i like it
the tempo is good, the tune itself sounds like it should be fast, but then the guitars sound kinda silly up in the higher registers. maybe i'm just a fan of low guitars...
it cuts off at the end!
Author's Response:
i know what yo umean w/ the tempo, but the reason it cuts off is cuz the drums you hear are on my guitar effects pad, and its a bitch to hit the button w/o stopping the guitar sound..so i had to cut it like that...it sounded really shitty before i did haha
thx for the comment

"rockin' it: definitely a nirvana influence there"
this is pure grunge, a great callback to the 90s garage grunge sound, which has just as much to do with the equipment used as with the loud recording style and sound... cool stuff. i like the clean guitar part during the verses (there's a little high note in there on the 'lead' guitar that really does it for me), it switches up the perception of grunge needing constant barre chords to really rock. the vocals during the heavy pre-chorus are especially reminiscent of cobain, but you can actually use use vibrato in your voice, which is something cobain never could pull off, so kudos for that!
the sound quality needs work, but duh. there are a couple of times where the drums seem to kind of trip through the fills and rolls, but other than that, the performance and arrangement is solid. since you said this is your simplest song, i'd love to hear some of your more complex songs.
rock on!
Author's Response:
Wow, thanks, that means a lot from you.
Our more complicated songs are more punkish, but you should check them out anyway.
