Title: By the way, we just released our first CD
Post by: Spyros on Tue 13/07/2004 13:47:58
It's a mini cd recorder by our band 'Valor'
(http://www.valor.gr/merchandise/valor_cover.jpg)
You can check it out at our page  Valor webpage (http://www.valor.gr)
and download a sample song here (http://www.valor.gr/valor.php?cmd=download&id=2)

The music we play is VERY HEAVY METAL

Hey, that's good stuff! I might buy the cd if I can... but for now I guess I just listen to the sample song you've got. :)

The sample download doesn't work for me. What have I got to do?

If you listen REALLY closely you can hear the Iron Maiden influence.  8)

Anyways, I've been having IE issues lately and a lot of sites crash my system, including the Valor site.
So, how do we go about buying this lost treasure of early 80's metal?

You have to format your hard disk , install win98, go to programs - outlook express and send me a mail at spyros@valor.gr

Also you can skip the first steps and just send me a mail

Sounds really good, nice and melodramatic.  :)

Hehe, this is cool, Spyros - I like it. More 80's metal to the people!
The lyrics made me think of Manowar, though... ;)
Put in a few more "True", "Fight", "Metal" and "Warriors", perhaps even arrange them as a song-title, i.e: "True Fighting Metal Warriors", and you're on your way... Hehe...Ã, 

I'd give out the link to our band Ingnis, since we have good bit of 80's metal influence ourselves, but since the homepage is in swedish, I doubt it'd be of much use... :P

Those snazzy fonts have been driving me crazy, too. The 'Valor' bit seems to be based on the Unreal game logo font, but I can't place the other one. I know I've seen it somewhere, though.

The music seems quite fun as well. Nice and camp!

Welp, I'm not a big fan of 80's metal, but the song is ok, in my opinion (supposed to be a compliment, don't know if it sounds like one).
And to all you font people, the title font is called Ogilvie and can be downloaded here (http://www.desktopland.com/Category.asp?ID=71)

Thanks for the 2nd download. This one worked fine.
Wow, I really like it. It's great work! ;)
Title: Re: By the way, we just released our first CD
Post by: Spyros on Tue 13/07/2004 21:38:18
Yes this is the title font.
The logo font isn't based on any other font, our singer drew it and Nick (the artwork man)  made it more "professional"

I don't know swedish is there any songs download?
Title: Re: By the way, we just released our first CD
Post by: Rincewind on Tue 13/07/2004 22:28:45
Spyros, we have no downloads for the moment, but I think I'm gonna upload some songs at soundclick.com soon...
OR, if you have Soulseek, you could get them through there.

Anyways, when are y'all coming out on an scandianvian tour, then? ;)

Cool song! 80's metal is teh rock. ;D

I noticed the Maiden and Manowar influences too, and I think I noticed some Blind Guardian influences as well.

Spyro (stupid question alert, but it's late so I'm excused :P), will I be to find the cd in stores like Rock city, etc?

I don't know Greek, but it seems like Helm said something to Spyros that made him confused or something similiar to that.

Spyros, the sample song sounded good.  I'll buy the CD as soon as possible.  Good stuff.
