I thought you ment the unused setup theme from the Alpha. I think that song would fit your style excellently.
Maybe it's because I know "Unholy Voices" so well, but the guitar in the beginning feels a little out of place or unpolished.
But I love the drum and bass buildup around 1:40 and 2:00. That guitar part works alot better later on. You can do some pretty radical stuff with guitar and Midi, which is awesome in my book.

I really like your alterations Darrell very nice , in the demo version of
Blood when you did a music test they had a different theam which i loved
for it's wierd sliding guitar it's quite like your style heres a copy of it

id really like to hear other versions that are based on that.
the only complaint i might have with your one here is there are parts
that remind me of some Doom musics but overall it's pretty Bloody

The guitar theme in the Alpha was f*** SWEET, and it wasn't "sliding guitar", (no offense, bro!) but it was frickin awesome.
Darrel, regarding some of those added insturements, I had no idea what you were doing, and at other parts, I really liked what you did. I liked the bass guitar, and the percussion somewhat. (I don't mean to be unkind, only to criticize constructively!! ) I would have liked to hear some subtle but ass-rocking double-bass pedal where you started the drums. Rock on.
You should listen to Dream Theater. They are incredible. I think you would like them. Anyway, here is the original unused guitar midi from Blood.

I was thinking about doing some of the songs on piano and classical and electric guitar. Thanks for the interesting stuff. I loved Blood's music. Very 80's horror synth.

that drum solo was nothing compared to these boys
dragonforce could kick his ass anytime
so put up your speakers and specially check out the guitarr duel at 03:24 and some later it comes again but zoomed in on the guitar squares only

I have to admit that they (Dragonforce) are really fast, but I wouldn't quite call it boring... I would call it monotonous and partially unentertaining. Dreamtheater (in comparison) is like a tempest of beautiful ideas that takes you on a musical journey to happyland. Dragonforce is like techno, played in real time on instruments. Don't get me wrong, that sh!the was impressive. I must say to all, if you don't like Dreamtheater, just TRY to listen to Metropolis2 all the way through.

P.S. Sorry to ramble, I wasn't trying to shoot down Dragonforce, they are pretty respectable (NewZie's glam progressive rock band, hardcore fans of a faded trend
)
EDIT: Man, I can't get that song out of my head. "Through the Fire and Flames".
"So far awaayyyyy..."

YOU THINK THAT STUFF WAS COOL? ADD SOME INSPIRATION AND TALENT. CHECK THIS DUDE OUT! His name is Guthrie Govan, and he is staggering, accurately quick, musically graceful.

Especially these ones:

Some bastard flagged one of the vids as "inappropriate"... d*ckhead.
