Hi all,
 
I would like to get some feedback on this song before I do the final recordings.
I intend to re-record everything but I just want to make sure the song works first, so shoot on everything.
 
* Added some some samples to the intro and vocal harmonies
 
New mix, I think this is ready now, any thoughts?

I really liked it.  You gave good variety to your central motif throughout the piece.  Likewise its a very memorable phrase.  Only thing I might suggest is cutting off some bars at the beginning and get to the vocals quicker.

Thanks for listening :)
I am aware of the long intro, I'll see what I come up with instead.

I liked it...     It's got some attitude, crunch, and an overall cool vibe.  A little prog-metal-ish NIN perhaps.
 
The only mix nits I would point out are that the vocals get a bit lost sometimes, the drums could stand more presence to drive things, and the main guitar riffs are somewhat centered and could use a little L/R spread.  Nits on a good song.

Thanks for listening Steve.

Cool that you liked the song.

I will re-record most of the gutars, it's a little untight in some parts and I have a little twist that I want to implement still. But that's the last detail that isn't in these demos.

Then I will fatten up the guitars and mix it properly. I will post the the final recordings when I'm done for some last mixing tips.

Thanks again!

That's weird, the link works if you copy paste but the if you click the link it tries to go to the old link...
Ahh found how to fix it, now the links work

Since it's not a final recording/mix I'll not comment on any of the mixing issues (as I see them).
 
The song seems like it's worth re-recording IMO.
