Nice one Bob! Great rocker with great tones. I had to listen twice as I thought there were timeing issues which it was the silence that threw me off. It happens a few times though it doesn't feel smooth. Great mix and song!

Bob you have a radio voice man.  Your guitar sound and your vocals always kick my ass and I love it.  I am quite curious to know about your recording chain. 
 
You know I'm not an engineer, but I thought the mix was just right.

Hey, Reece,
 
It's really great to hear from you, buddy, hope you're doing well!
 
Thank you so much for taking time to check this one out for me and for your input, observations and very kind words!  I truly appreciate your always good input and support on my stuff since I joined the forum, and I'm very grateful for your friendship!
 
P.S.:  I was absolutely furious to read about your recent break in up in the Coffee House thread, and I hope you have better luck with the investigation than our friend Bit Flipper had with his situation, it's truly a shame what's happening to this country these days!
 
Thanks again, Reece, and sincere best wishes for a decent outcome with the insurance company.
 
Have a great week, buddy!
Bob

I get tired of saying the same thing, but geez, it's freakin' slammin'. 
 
The guitars, vocals and drums all sound great, big and fat as usual.  I think the vocals were in danger of getting a little blanketed by the music in a few spots just because the music comes across that powerful, but it's subjective.  And yeah, the solo is really smooth as mentioned above - it sounds like it has a different tone than other songs?    I also did hear just a few minor timing issues, but less than previous songs and nothing overly distracting.   Either way it's just another day in Oister Rock.

Hey, Tom,
 
How's it going, brother?  Hope you're having a Rockin' week!
 
Big thanks for stopping in to check this one out, and for your always good input and encouraging comments!
 
Yep, this one has an incremental buildup of elements in the intro before hitting full force just because that's what I was hearing in my head even before the "guts" of the song were recorded.  As I've mentioned here on the forum before, I actually never sit down to try to write a song.  I could be reading, driving, watching TV, taking a shower, mowing the lawn, etc., and the whole shebang just hits me in an instant like a lightning bolt to the brain!   LOL, It's really weird, I mean everything, rhythm, chords, lyrics, guitar tones, tempo, song key, melodies, and even video scenes like a movie in my head.  But then the hard part is trying to recreate what I'm hearing in my head in Sonar, and getting things to sound like I first imagined them.  So, sometimes I end up with unconventional results and things like quirky transitions and weird timing changes, sometimes good, sometimes bad, but I usually just go with my gut.
 
Anyway, thanks again, Tom, I always greatly appreciate your thoughtful input and observations on my stuff because your stuff always sounds fantastic, and I'm very grateful for your friendship and support here on the forum!
 
Have a dynamite weekend, buddy!
Bob

Another hot rocking tune from the Oister Factory!! Good stuff here Bob and love your guitar tones. I also thought the vocals could come up a few notches....they seem to get slightly behind the heavy guitars. Other than that, this is a winner!
Well done my friend.....well done!!

Hi Bob
I hope you are well sir :) 
Great song, playing and mix - guitars sound great as per usual.
I think there may be a couple of timing issues here and there with the vocal - may be my ears though :)

Kinda modern Ozzy meets Dokken - 
slammin tune. the drums breathe a lot more naturally on this one you did a great job sequencing them - I don't mind the little timing issues here and there. 
love your voice and mad guitar chops, bro!! people will buy this!!

Wow another powerhouse Bob Oister production.  I love those driving rhythm guitars and the bass work is great.  The mix is excellent especially with the vocals and harmonies.  This really has a radio ready sound to it.  You have another winner with this one!
