Hey, I'm listening to this on heaqdphones
This is good. It makes me feel, and that is how I decide what I like.
Your band is tight timing wise.
definitely all solid players
To hear live drums is a treat.
If I were to mix this I would turn up the vocals, there is a message, but I can't hear it, but I'm deaf in one ear so take that for what it is worth. I guess if I turned up the vocals I might need to pull back on some of the effects on the voice.
I would also do something to the cymbals, just a little to toppy, which I think interferes with the guitars. I would also eq the rest of the kit so it was a little more organic. You are a great drummer but the drums (skins) to me are not deep enough
The base sits nice, but I would get a little more transient in their. It sounds more like a sting section and less of a driving force.
Caveat, on the third song the drums are more what I would shoot for.
If you are using a whole lot of saturation and tape sim stuff I would back it way off. I suppose you are going for a style, but bring everything back to reality, you guys don't need all that, don't hide behind that. More heart, less head.
The lead around 9 min is good.
Now with that said, this is so far greater technically, and musicianship wise, and recording wise than I could do, that you could probably get better advice.
Very dood though, charge ahead undaunted.
