Mix sounds pretty decent. The guitar on the left is overpowering. I'd go with a palmed sound and build as you reach the chorus. Like the change in the last third.
Vocals are pretty good. Drums are awesome. Lead on the right is very good.

Dan

I like the second version better than the first. Great guitar sounds and playing was excellent.

Sounds great! Nice vocals - and I like how you've processed the BGVs. Nice guitar work too - I like the tone of the guitars. Drum sounds are great too - what do you use for drums?

Thanks Geno! Getting a compliment on vocals from you is very appreciated indeed! For drums, believe it or not, I'm using Kitcore, and the kitpack I'm using is one of Matt Cameron's. As far as cymbals, I'm using the Zildjian Z and S-Packs with the BFD Eco software. Thanks again!

Second mix sounds great. Performance, mix, vox all good. Good song. I thought that guitar solo might be slightly too loud compared with the rest of the mix. Cool solo though....nice work.

Interesting. I thought the vocal performance made the song. I did like the drums, but I may mix up a few more Phill's in there. The mix was better than I could do.

Hey, Very cool song with a nice thick wall of guitars and killer vocals! Nice solo with tasty playing, and I really like the quiet bridge before the big buildup at the end. Great stuff, have a good one!  Bob

Thanks Mark! You brought something to light that I've been wondering about too. That solo is a little strong in the 3khz area. It's making it jump out a little too much. I'll have to go back over that. Thanks again!

Thanks Robbie! I appreciate your kind words on the mix (but I've heard your work, and I think your capabilities blow mine away). Also thanks for the compliment on the vocals. I've always felt very lacking in that area. And I agree that the drums need more "phill's".:-) I'm gonna work on that. Thanks for checking it out!

Thanks for the listen and kind words Bob! That bridge is one of my favorite parts of that song too. Thanks for the compliment on the vocals!

I couldn't listen past about 35 sec but what I heard sounded well done for the genre I guess.
Just not my cuppa.

Solid piece of rock! Tight performance, very expressive vocal. With all the heavy guitars, the mix still sounds 3 D.
Great guitar solo !

No no... Different styles, different songs. There are some good singers here? Some people think I'm a singer? :-) But the song dictates (usually IMO) the vocal style? And different styles fit different songs. Some "just right..." The yoyo factory for example? Most of his shizite is "PERFECT" for his voice? One could make arguments about abilities? Some with a unique ability to "fit in" where one needs to do so, regardless of the instrument. But the fact is, different songs/styles, call for different singers and vocal styles? So while someone couldn't sing "A", it doesn't mean they would not be absolutely perfect for "B?" I'm a strong believer in this? Some people are born singers (I've been singing since I was in 1st grade) Some people are born "ripping" guitar players? Or <insert instrument here> You know what I'm saying? But there are some songs which require a certain vocal? And singer or not? If it fits? It fits... (like me in an adult film...)

I continue to be amazed at what I find here. I absolutely love the bridge at 3:30. Everything on this is stellar.

Thank you Steve! I really appreciate the kind words man. That bridge is one of those parts that just kind of happened, you know? It was an unintentional thing that happened while I was recording that led to that idea. I love it when things just fall together like that. Thanks for listening bro!

I don't remember the original mix, but this one sounds really good. Nice crisp guitars and I continue to like the sound of the drums. Vocals are great too.
