New: I worked some with the snare to make the ghost hits be better. changed the sound on them and increased the velocity by 8. And the guitars are louder.

New: Changed a hit that was snare that should have been a cymbal hit, so now it is a cymbal and all works fine.

now with vocals and made public.
 
I've played all and arranged it all, like the producer i am (trying to be). Hope to get the vocals soon. And i hope they will be more in the black metal style. Then i have to record guitar melody. But I'll wait til i get the tracks.
 
Here is the lyrics:
 
T: Vidar Kristensen (1971)
M: Svensk folketone
 
Jeg har en venn som har gitt sitt liv
for at jeg skal få leve.
Det finnes intet alternativ,
det nytter ikke å streve.
Fordi jeg lever så milevidt
i fra Guds vilje med livet mitt,
fikk jeg dommen, slik lød den:
Du skal dømmes til døden!
 
Denne dommen er absolutt,
og jeg kan ikke anke.
Men når jeg innser at alt er slutt,
har Gud en frelsende tanke:
Til jorden sender Han Jesus som
tar på seg både min skyld og dom,
og når han drepes uskyldig,
blir min dødsdom ugyldig.
 
Tenk jeg skal ikke dø fordi
Jesus døde istedet!
All min dødsangst er nå forbi,
den er byttet med glede.
Ja, Jesus hjelp meg å klart forstå
at det livet jeg lever nå,
det er ditt liv alene,
det er deg jeg skal tjene.

Enjoyed hearing this very much!!! Although not really what I normally listen to or play. I must say being someone who doesn't listen to this style of music that the first thing that comes to mind would be Christmas type of music, or that is a Dark Christmas night that is very cold anxiously awaiting the coming day "Which is something I like about Christmas Holidays". Probably not relevant to replying, but it's the only way I knew how to describe my impressions. 
 
Music is very stellar!!! 

Please don't take anything I have said the wrong way, I mean everything as a compliment here. 
 
Enjoyed hearing this very much, as for the mix, like I said not really my style, but maybe a bit more bite on the distortion for the guitar to bring it out, or Mid's on the guitar if you are using VST's. 
 
Enjoyed hearing this one very much, I'm no pro, and CAN'T DO BETTER, so take my advice only as someone who plays but is listening. 
 
Thanks for sharing!!!!

Thank you so much. the mix is not done yet. i will look into the guitars for sure. maybe re record them all together. all depends on the vocal tracks.

Love what you have done here. I agree that the guitars could stand out just a bit more.

i fixed it. i think. it is higher in the mix.

I for one am so glad you posted the lyrics!   :)
 
This is pretty cool! I like the composition.
 
Just a little more reverb on that intro piano wouldn't be out of place I think. I think the mix sounds great, nicely separated. Possibly look at the hi-hats, which hit all the time - they are a little flangey. They are nicely panned.
 
Drums are also a standout for me. Are they vst or real?
 
very bueno.

Really cool, Øyvind!
(Will continue to record vocals this coming week)
All the best.

Hey Jarvse - this is really cool!
 
the "synth" melody is a little "stiff" tho - this will be better when the vox arrive, no doubt!
 
love the crunchy guitars, love the build up before they come in
 
nice stuff!
