    As a Tolkien geek, I have to say these guys 'get' Middle Earth in a way very few others have (Howard Shore does, too!).
    They also do a fair number of Elvish songs, the Lay of Luthien and the Song of Ëarendil (Parts 1-3!). The Dragon is Withered manages to completely redeem some very silly vocals. 😄

    I love this song, but every time I hear it, I'm left with a sense of unimaginable loss and sadness. As if something once-grand and glorious in it's majesty has been forever lost. Fitting for the Dwarfs of Middle-Earth, but amazing that this group manages to give that sense of loss through simple words and notes.

    Would love to see you react to Clamavi de Profunis's Negankerdak saga. The songs in order are: "The Loss of Negankerdak", "The Secret of Negankerdak", "The Violation of Negankerdak", and "The Claiming of Negankerdak". Both for the technical aspect of your reaction, but also because I think it's a story worth enjoying.

      ​​@@khalid969I think it's interesting that you phrase the question this way. "What are you evaluating?" In this example, you've produced a song of some kind (in order to assert "I could sound better than you do"), which means any analysis of the song is still valid. How did you put the phrases of the song together? With all the use of editing software, does the emotion of the song still come through clearly? Is the use of editing software done in an interesting or unique way? Is the song enjoyable to listen to?
      Electronically produced music is still music, the focus just shifts from "how good is this musician at creating the music (plus all the other aspects of analysis)" to "how good is this musician at arranging the music to do the thing they intended to do"?
