Loved it....well, because I hate guns and people who think the can only be free and protect themselves with assault rifles and machine guns. I`d bring the vox up a bit they sometimes get lost.
Cheers,

let me be the first to welcome you to the forum! I like the song and the lyrics. The vocals overall - to my ears - need to be a little more "present", they somehow seem to be buried in the mix. beside that, I have nothing to complain. How did you record the drums?

Thanks for the kind words and feedback, gentlemen. For the drums I used an SM57 on the snare, AKG D112 in the kick, a budget MXL condenser as a right overhead and an SM57 as a left overhead...and then I hit R. And then I hit the spacebar and Ctrl-Z and R a bunch more times, in that order :P

Ah hell...that makes you and expert! Welcome. I agree that the vocals could be a bit more prominent too.

I agree on the vocal issue.... bring them up in the mix.
The rest sounds pretty good on the cheap computer speakers.....
Listening to the song.... nice satire. Kinda makes me wanna hit the range and blow stuff to pieces.

The force and speed with which I struck the space bar was inversely proportional to how much any given take sucked. New version up with vocals upped. THanks guys
