What genre would this song normally fall under? It sounds interesting.
The closest would be industrial metal I guess.

Wow. Just totaly loving this!

Normally I find your voice to be very distinctive and easily recognisable throughout all your songs. This one was completely different.
I sang a bit more aggressively for this one and also used a distortion effect on the vocal track, it makes it sound crackly and dirty - in a good way. ;)

Nice NIN sound to this. I really like it. Is this with the new equipment then?
Nope this is with the old gear! The next song uses the new equipment a little bit, but it won't be till January that I put one out 100% using it!

Another great song. Can't say I have any criticisms about this one, the intro was odd until it hits the change point, but is this the first song where you swear? Cause those were a couple of choice ones ;)
haha that just came out when I was recording it. Wasn't planning it but it just felt right. It is about blowing up someone's tank after all :D

Reminded me of old school NIN. Which is a really good thing. XD It's a sexy little number you've got here. Purrrr.

Once again Gav creates a song that is far more entertaining than the game it's made for.
This one felt very Marilyn Manson.

Incidentally, I never felt the least bit threatened when playing the tank sections of Bf3.
I was thinking more Zakk Wylde-era Ozzy Osbourne, but I definitely see where you got Manson from.
It was the cadence that made me think of Manson. At the same time, I can definitely see where you got Ozzy from.

Sounds very... industrial. Definitely some NIN and Manson in there, and the staccato beat reminded me of Fear Factory.

Not one of my faves, but fun to listen to nonetheless. :)
I wonder what you'll have in store for us next... (on a somewhat related note: you still going to make that song about War for Cybertron..? ^^)

Oh yes, that reminds me: Are you going through with your plan of taking a break through December? The way you've been churning out tracks it wouldn't surprise me if you were headed for a burnout somewhere down the line. Be sure to take a rest from your creative work every once in a while, friend.

The footage is Justin's... apparently he had a lot of fun making this video :D
I wouldn't be surprised. Using another vehicle as a bomb in basically a suicide attack proved to be quite an effective tactic.... then again so did strolling up to the tank like you own the damn place!
And he certainly did seem to like doing it. Never once used the engie with a rocket, which I find odd. They're usually the most useful class for me. Nothing says "up yours" like a couple AT mines to the underbelly.

yes I am. I have a song done for 2 weeks from now then taking rest of December off to recharge. Was a bit over-productive this year to the point that I feel some of the work may have suffered.

Coincidentally enough the "motherf*ucker" kill was against an APC that was camping our spawn, so it actually was appropriate.

Only out of the Escapist collection, his old stuff has... 'colourful' subjects and a couple of his more recent CoD songs (Legend of the Thunder and Second Chance) too.
Oh yeah, forgot about those ones. And then there's that one he has on YouTube, the death metal screamy thing.

I played world of tanks for a while and this proved the perfect accompaniment (except that I would get too excited and get myself dead... but hey, as long as at least one tank had been blown up it was fantastic, even if it was only my own...)
