The intro reminds me of Rush. The mix is very good indeed. Nice work!

I wasn't expecting this. Like all others have said, it's awesome and very well recorded. You may inspire Led Zeppelin to go back on tour. Welcome to the forum.

My favorite part of the song: when everything gets f***ed up at 3:10. Really like your style, reminds me of Thirty Seconds To Mars at their very beginning (instrumentally). They were much better back then :) ! Keep up the good work.

A lot of nice tones but the song comes across as a lot of random parts put together. It's overall incoherent. The guitars are awfully out of key at about the 3:20 mark. The vocals are unintelligible until 2:40 when the 1980s hair band vocals kick in. This could be broken up to make a number of really good different songs if each piece was elaborated on better.

I understand the ying and the yang of that low-fi effect. But it made it difficult for me to understand the vocals. Not sure how adjustable it is. Good song and solid performances.
Sittin downtown in a railway station one toke over the line.

Thanks for the listen and the feedback Robbie. You're absolutely right about that effect. It is adjustable. I meant to change it before mixdown, but I forgot! :-) Thanks for the reminder, and thanks again for the listen!

i hear King's X and zakk wylde influences...
it's a cool song...
the opening verse, with the foghorn-voice...
it'd be nice to hear a clean vocal track mixed in underneath the effected voice, because the lyric is too hard to make out most of the time..
and a clean vocal track would allow the listener to easily understand the words, without taking away from the spooky effect...
you've got some pitch problems with some of the 'bridge' vocals, example at 2:50 and 3:00....
i like the idea of 'laying' it out there, but i'd re-track those vox, until you nail those pitches, it would be so much better and intense.
don't pitch correct it, just keep singing it til you nail it.
dig that guitar solo... it's just twisted.
cool breakdown at the ending...

Nice job. Only nit would be that there is some nagging upper frequency to the flanged voc in the beginning that sort of tears at the ears. Might be that it is just competing with the guitar.

Great Tune enjoyed the mix power and balance agree with robby on the lo-fi effect on the vox though.
Whoa.... to you ...oh...earth and sea...

Nicely done. I like how you started this out with the treble sound and lead into the thicker parts. Great sound. 60's meets the 80's, wild meets the very wild in the dark. Very creative. Welcome aboard.
Peace and Blessings, John
