I Don't Know (What You Want)
Great little rocker. Vox need a little more volume IMO (as others have said). Otherwise - good stuff!
Great groove on this. Great chorus. Really good Mix!
This is solid. I noticed your newer stuff is less agressive, I dont know why cause you do this realy well. good hooks(Both melodic and musical ) give me more like this please. Steve
I love the stoppy-startyness of the intro. Slight hints of Motley Crue in there maybe, which in my book is a great thing. Splendid wee tune. easy one to rate.
From Cheltenham eh? I have family that way. Good rocker man, like the complicated timing breaks! Agree that it's a good chorus, a real screamer... must have been fun recording! Rated dude
hey this track is really cool. classic rock, and that's all:) By the way, yeah i did take my track off and put it back up, my mistake, cos i am only allowed 3 tracks. x
yea, your right bro. i liked it. this track rocks! the guitar solo was very well done.
You gotta a well constructed song here. The chorus is great. I've always felt that the chorus should be one of the most powerful parts of a song. I think this song had a great mix of styles that range from the 80's and on. Good guitar work as well. Not really anything I can complain about. Thanks!
Great 80's flavor! Billy Squire comes to mind. Rox right through! Welcome to the site!
I’ve got it cranked to the max. Great production, nice power chords, great vox, great lead... nice settings. I feel the cymbals could come back in the mix a bit from :56 on, but that's only when cranked. You must have brought the vox up in the mix cause I think it’s fine. Love the right side low gallop. Rates and noms bud! Welcome.
Good rocking dude. Gets my rate. Bring the vox up like folk say and also I think the drums need lifting in places. Cool
Rock on....... and on and on Great Track!!!!
cool stuff craig :) i agree the vocs are hard to hear in the verses....bring them up a touch...very rock like 80's bon jovi esque... nice guitars dude as well...some nice chops in there fella thumbs up
very nice, catchy. liked a lot rated.
good rock song craig - like this one - going in a different direction
Backtrack is brilliant......what do you use for drums? Again the chorus is very strong.....I reckon you would like Rabbit Pudding + Hare of the Dog here on MP3Unsigned....I can imagine Rhys singing this with avengeance lol. Kevin Mooney
I really like this song and the recording is excellent.
slick production, just bring up the verse voc a bit and its a good un!
Killer track mate, catchy hook to the vocals, which sound awesome, guitars sound brilliant, infectious guitar licks and a great recording, can't fail with a track of this quality :)
Hmmmm.. a guitarist who shows he demonstrates the ability think beyond the six strings and execute a well co-ordinated demonstration of spatial and timing awareness - basically well done and welcome aboard!! (I'd've loved you to try miss out the end of the last phrase to end it on the imperfect - would have left it as a great question!!!!) - jon
That's one helluva enjoyable track, well done!
mmm - like the guitars in this - good vox hook - good energy - cool track, man:) thumbs up
This one grew on me after a few listens, the thing that kept me coming back was the great guitar sound, very crisp and full, like the chorus as well. Ok I love it lol :) Rated
don't get much rock, but damn this is good, i like this, sick guitar melodies, sweet voice, but the guitars are sounding sooooooo niiiiice! production is really clear and pro. luv that snare too! Rated dude and welcome to the site Matt
nice grinding sound to the riff...good rock vox and overall good sound...great to have another rocker on the site..welcome!!

great tune fine recording. everthing is crisp and clear. killer solo. well done.
(NO MORE) HAPPY ENDINGS. This is the second collab between Truj and myself, follow up to the MP3Unsigned Official Chart No1 'On The Road'. Once again Tommy wrote and performed all the music and I wrote the lyrics and performed the vocals. Tommy is also responsible for mixing and mastering. All comments and suggestions, good or bad, as always are greatly appreciated. Play this LOUD!!!
Please check out my latest track, Misery Loves Company. I'm really pleased with the way this one has turned out, definitely one of my best yet! Cheers Craig
Note: Same as always, going on the basis that a score of 10 is for a release level track with Bob Rock style production. First off, let me say that Craig is a damn fine guitarist - for a long time I only knew him as a song writer but the more of his stuff I've listened to the more I began to notice smatterings of really excellent guitar playing all over the place. I was excited to see tha
At this point in time, I have reviewed getting on for a dozen Pidgeman tracks and discovered that this rock based musician is generally worth listening to. Personally I still think he is capable of much, much more but his catalog of tracks on Mp3 Unsigned (and Soundclick) will show a very competent musician and songwriter, sometimes let down by the equipment he is working with. A
First track out of the MP3 Unsigned bag this month is the indefatigable (Ed: wooahh Gilmore!! Big words!) Pidgeman. Since I first met him while reviewing Misery Loves Company (September 2007 Pidgeman has been a regular visitor to my review schedule so at this stage of the game I probably have almost a dozen of his tracks reviewed. Although there is a fair smattering of Highly Recommend
Craig Matthews (aka Pidgeman) has been a regular on these pages for the last year or so and is actually quite a prodigious musician and out of the wodge of tracks I have reviewed has done well in terms of keeping my critical beast at bay. It helps considerably that most of the tracks this UK based musician writes are good, old fashioned rock tunes and I am amazingly biased that way. Th
Out of the seven or eight reviews I have done of Craig Matthews (aka Pidgeman) one thing becomes instantly clear, I like this musicians style even if I haven't found a track to rave about yet. That is obviously just a question of time of course, and the right combination of circumstances, but I feel fairly confident at this stage that this is an artist who definitely has a Must Have track lu
I was, am and always will be a big fan of rock music, from the Beatles and beyond rock has always been a constant in my own life. Which, as it happens, is pretty good news for artists like MP3 Unigned's Pidgeman considering that rock seems to be his meat and potatoes too. Consequently we haven't had a lot ofg trouble seeing musical eye to eye and some of his tracks have indeed been standout, par
Babylon is Doomed? Fucking A, as someone once said. Don't know about you mon, but whenever me hear dat Babylon t'ing I think of reggae. Not something I would automatically expect from Pidgeman, an alternative rock musician from MP3 Unsigned I have reviewed a half a dozen times, without too much upset. Fact is, I do like a good singer/songwriter, especially when their chosen
This is an incredibly well structured song. I enjoyed listening to this track a lot and I'm really looking forward to the remake that has been mentioned. First off, the production is as close to perfection as you can get in a home recording environment. The acoustic guitar sound is exceptional. Nice and crisp, clear as a bell but with enough low mid and bottom end to keep it warm soun
First track out of MP3 Unsigned this month is from yer old rock buddy Pidgeman. Regular readers will know the man and his works of course but if ya don't here's a thumbnail sketch. He's a home produced rock musician from Coventry here in the UK and considering that he is a home producer comes up with some very decent tracks indeed. Out of the last five tracks I reviewed, three go
Craig Matthews (aka Pidgeman) is an MP3 Unsigned artist you will be familiar with if you are a regular reader, and lets face it if you are not then I am talking to myself and that doesn't even bear thinking about. Having come from a lifetime of real world music, I have found I have developed a specific ear for what is right according to that world. It's why, I think, I am sometimes ove
MP3 Unsigned's Pidgeman had a bit of a rough time from me when I reviewed Wasting Time (March 2008) a track that I felt needed a lot of improvement - a fairly common thread of my reviews of this particular artist. Which is odd because Pidgeman plays rock of various tones, and he plays it well too. Where the wheels start falling off the wagon is when you add into it arrangement, pitch a
My final review for this batch goes to Pidgeman, who I've reviewed before when he collabed with electronica artist Destri! This track, however, is one he done all by himself! This starts off with a drumbeat first, then the rest of the instrumentation comes in! The sound is very 80's, which is either a good thing or a bad thing, depending on where you stand on the matter! Personally, I like the so
Third time around for MP3 Unsigned's Pidgeman, a singer/songwriter from the UK. The first track I reviewed - Misery Loves Company (November 2007) - showed that Pidgeman knows what he's doing in terms of performance and songwriting style and Can't Stop Thinking About You (January 2008) only confirmed that impression. Where things fell down in both tracks was in the final presentation, a
Well coming up here is my 3rd review out of the people who first came into my offering post for a review. I have to say I’m very pleased with the results so far. We have Pidgman’s latest; Babylon Is Doomed?. So without further due to you all… Lets begin! The first thing that gets thrown out at me is the snare. Very powerful and full. I like it a lot. The kick has a nice pumpin
Next up we have a new track from Craig (Pigeman) called Babylon Is Doomed? which I am told he recorded from beginning to end in one evening, which only goes to show when the muse hits, go with the flow and good things can happen.
Craig Matthews aka Pidgeman is an MP3 Unsigned rock musician who I first encountered when I reviewed Misery Loves Company (November 2007). Nice track, as it happened, especially since I like the kind of rock Pidgeman specialises in. Like a great many of us, he has to deal with certain limitations about getting it all down digitally and - on both tracks I've heard - that home produced f
Next up is a track that has been doing very well on the site, 'Misery Loves Company' which Craig (Pidgeman) released a while ago. Commented on the track when it came out and stand by all my original views but will attempt a more in depth overview of the track. Track is very much in Craig's comfort zone, a guitar led power pop/rock track, a genre that has always been popular in the charts (espe
good song and good sound, yout voice is like the voice of rush.keep on rocking.
Pidgeman is a new name to me, this time from MP3 Unsigned and has the singular honour to finally rescue me from the almost constant electronica/trance diet I have had from that site since I started picking up reviews from there again. Moreover, Pidgeman promises to deliver some of my favourite; rock, and for that the man is like an oasis in the desert. Aaah burt, you sigh, rock can cov
Collabs... the MP3Unsigned speciality! There's lots of them about on MP3Unsigned, from one-offs to collab bands such as Stella Polaris Project and Hare Of The Dog! This collab involves Electronica producer Destri and Singer/Songwriter Pidgeman! I've heard the backing music by Destri before as an instrumental, and the combination of electro and hiphop sounds great to me! In this version, the middl
I really like this track by Craig, I remember commenting and rating it before, and rightly so. For a slow instrumental it has some serious emotive phrasings. Craig's understadgin of music and ear for melody shines through on this piece. An unforgettable hook is what makes this track different from most other instrumetnals out there. Craig weaves melody and structure around the central theme from s
Heavier than most of Pidgeman's other tracks this one caught my interest becuase of the distorted guitars and crip powerchords. Th eproduction throughout is very clear and the instruments sit nicely with good separation between rhythm guitar and bass. Drums sounded good to me despite some comments regarding cymbal levels. Last comment on the mix and the only part that needs minor ad
This evening I'll be reviewing a recent newcomer to mp3u, Pidgeman (Craig Matthews) welcome aboard. He describes his music as a cross between Rock and Pop. In my opinion, this track is all rock. He hails from Cheltenham in the U.K. and can rock with the best of them.
Good review to start off, a track I have already listened to and enjoyed a great deal, from an artist with a ever growing collection of very solid, well crafted proper songs. First thing I checked out when reviewing the song were the lyrics, they are a really quite strong for a song of this type, which at it's heart, is a song about despair. Rather than wallow in the misery though, the song offers
I really like this song so it's hard for me not to rate it on the high end.The lyrics are well done. It's important to me that they tell a story or make a point.There are two things I really like about this tune. one is the how it jumps into the third section after the second chorus and two, the key modulation at the end. In both cases the vocal is spot on. not an easy thing to do. it's hard to de
