Great tune.  Man I thought my tune was dark but you win.  Nice lead vocal.  The mix painted the song really well.  I probably would have done things different but it wouldn't have been better.  The atmosphere was very cool.  I would have screwed that up.  Nice job.

This is excellent, James, Tim, Ed!  really great stuff!  mix sounds great, performances and tones are just out of this world! 
 
always love to hear Tim singing, very cool vocal!

Hi, James,
 
Stellar job on this hauntingly beautiful new Nettlesmith song!
 
It's always a treat to hear you and Tim working together and you definitely have a very recognizable signature sound for Nettlesmith that never disappoints!
 
I'm on my third listen, and I love the clean tremolo guitar over the dark crunchy chords which sets a perfect bed for Tim's powerful vocals, and as always, Ed did a bang up job on the perfect bass tone and playing to match the style of the song.  The tasty guitar solo tone is right on the money and well fitting with the theme, and the mix sounds warm and vintage, which I think is a perfect match for the mood of the song, similar to the early Doors stuff that I always loved.
 
Dynamite work, James, Tim and Ed, great stuff!

Thanks Doug!

Late to the party but sheesh great mix of a great tune. Let him sing the phone book and you mix it, and Ed bass it up. A winning combo.
 
cheers,

Sorry mate have must have missed this one during the move. Great stuff, really top notch.

Thanks Daryl! Glad you're getting settled and back to recording.

I skipped listening to this one because going by the title I figured it would be death metal or something else I wouldn't care for. I'm surprised. It's actually very good. I like that bit of tremolo at the end. I usually don't care much for tremolo, but in small doses it's very effective. Bass was great by the way.

Really enjoy this one- great songwriting and musicianship!

Really fine track at every level.   I don't recall hearing any previous Nettlesmith songs where Tim really pushes his voice aggressively as in this song.   Normally I think he sounds like Peter Gabriel but now hear a little Paul Rodgers quality in the more aggressive tones.  
 
Very well produced, mixed, played, etc..   Also appreciate the simplicity of ther mix template that you outlined in this thread.   Shows you don't need a lot of crazy stuff in your mix if you have already provided good source quality, playing ability and overall talent.   Good stuff.
 
Regards

Well done rock song. Good vocals and playing.
