It's good again. But I hate how you let it taper off. You know what I think of it from the other thread but I need to just say...it needs a more ...powerful end. The way you are giong with it just asks for an end that is strummed or just has more oomph in general, and like I said, i wouldn't go too overboard with the fade-out. Just let the sustain die out from the last notes, I personally like that better.

Yep, I know what you're talking about. That's the part I least like about this draft - the end. I want to be longer, with more "power" as you say. I also want it faded - not faded technically, but faded, you know? like quieter. The bad thing about this version is that it starts to fade out, and then like 40 seconds later, it ends. Much to gradual for me.

You know like studio Grey St. That is a well-done fade-out. You have the right direction with it. I might go back to the intro riff for a few bars then go all out 'oomph' and fade that out.

Yeah, I've toyed with that idea as well.

I think I should do that.

Yeah that was awesome. I really dig that fade out. It doesn't sound anything like it, but it reminds me of the Last Stop Reprise outro, which is my fav part of BTCS, so nice work!
