Bob,
For my hearing (just another opinion and not a very qualified one) the Ryth guitar is too brittle and the lead is too soft and muffled. I don't know if you printed the guitars dry or wet, but I think the noise gate threshold in the Ryth should be quite a bit lower and I don't think it would hurt to turn up the highs in the lead amplifier.
For my ears, particularly with the Ryth guitar hard to the left and the lead hard to the right it sounded like all the highs were comming from the left and not enough highs from the right. Possibly not panned so hard might be another way to equalize this a bit?
Cool tune. Stomping my feet here.

I, for one, like the hard panning. I've noticed that many people nowdays don't like things panned hard left or right, but there was a time when that was very popular. I like the separation, but that may be just me. Overall, a good song and a good mix.

Bob,
Just gave it another listen and things sounded spot on. My ears must have been sick yesterday cause' I can't hear anything even a touch off today. Please disregard my previous post.

Hi,
I'm listening on a laptop but this sounds great to me. I love how you've taken a sorta standard rock tune and added some unexpected twists to it.
The harmonies sound great, too.
Very cool.

That's a cool rockin' song Bob! Got me head bobbing here  Ooh, like those bridge harmonies, nice touch. Lovely guitar break too. Overall the mix sounds very compressed to my ears, especially the drums. The guitars are small and brittle where (IMO) they should be bigger and have more body to them, those riffs are worth hearing!

really nice, rscain
a couple of things I'd consider: the overall volume is low, for this genre I'd slam it pretty hard on the master bus and bring the overall RMS up. I agree that it does sound compressed, very little dynamic range, but I think that's good for this genre. I think that's the way it should but, but the master is still low comparitively, IMO.
I like the panning , vox are good, drums are done well. I agree with james that I'd beef up those guitars. they're done really well - nice riffs, but they're a little thin, IMO for this song.
good job!
