    Brilliant. Love the song, love the mix.

    Love the tune. You've done your job exceedingly well on the mixing and mastering I would say.

    Great stuff! Love the sound of the kick. Perfectly mixed instrument bed. The lyrics are hard to understand during the heavy guitar sections. May want to boost them a little in those sections.

    I totally agree about the lyrics being hard to understand in those parts. Fact is, even if theyre soloed theyre still hard to understand. Ive tried to make them more clear with an EQ but havent got there yet. Thanks for listening.

    Terrific stuff!  The mix sounds great but I am in agreement about the vocal.  The get pushed back a touch too far when you get cranked up.  This is a minor point however --- great number and you have done very well on the mix.

    If I may posit... it is ok that the lyric get buried a bit. I actually hear them fine here... in relation to other types of music that fit this genre. What I am saying is, clear is not always the goal. Just my 2C and ordinarily I would not counter these guys on this point, but... this is the kind of music I most enjoy next to hard core electronica. If I were to change anything I would get a bit more oomph from the bottom (thinking of Tool's sound here).

    I'd rather the vocal not get buried when the song gets cranked up. If i make the vocal louder in those parts i just cant seem to make them feel right. (if that makes any sense)

    Terrific mix and song.  I agree with Shad about the volume not necessarily being a problem, but if you still desire for it to be heard, then you have infinitely more headroom turning something down than up.  IOW, turn everything but the vocal down a notch or two until the vox can be understood.  If it's true that they're hard to understand soloed, then there's really not much you can do, except resing the vocal.

    All the best,
    Lynn

    I like this song and you did a really fine job on the mix!  I was expecting a bit more bass but that's a personal preference from a bass player.  :-)
