Thanks to Mesh for the video thumbnail link tip!
 
I have been polishing this turd since 2012. Lemme know if I missed a spot!

Mixing this is like trying to land a 200lb hammerhead shark with ten-pound test. Oh, well.
Thanks for the listens and crits !

My kind of tune.  Long but not boring. Extended instrumental bridge.  Interesting lyrics.  Great polishing job.  It shines!

I think the drums could come up some Tom. Otherwise, you're gold.
 
Really like that opening guitar riff and bass. Great tones too.

Nice sounding guitars.  Like the tone.  Nice production and it sound great.  So you are singing about the Mayans which is quite an unusual subject.

Tom,
 
I remember this one. I liked it then and I like it now. Very polished, but certainly not a  turd.
 
Sounds pretty seamless to me. Cool pop-rock groove. It sounds like you obsessed over this one as much as Steely Dan obsessed over their late seventies/ early eighties projects which your song kind of reminds me of.
 
Cheers,
 
Bert

That was a really cool groove to the song, and I liked your vocal.  Nice guitar solo - the tone made me think of Steely Dan.  Overall I liked the song - well done - good mix too.

John B, glad you dig it!
 
Wayfarer Bill, good call on them drums, I found spots where they needed a booster. Thanks!
 
Vicente Vechung, the Mayan "Apocalypse" was so overblown in the leadup to 2012 I found it interesting, and started a song. I probably should have alloted more lead time. :) thanks!
 
Bert, thanks, I'll take a Steely Dan reference any time, at least musically. Glad you liked it and thanks for the re-listen!
 
Doug, thanks! I'm not a gifted guitarist but I recently added the Kuassa Caliburn to the pile, and it's sounds pretty good to my ears.
 
Daryl, thanks so much! You da man.
 
Jesse, I will take your poetic wisdom to the bank, to the house, and to the mountaintop. Thanks for the listen!
