Tom & Tony - always a pleasure!  when I saw the title, I thought, well, if this is a temporary song, I don't want to listen to it!  LOL!
 
guitars are great, bass is fantastic, drums are nicely done.  vox fit the song
 
excellent work gents!

kk boys...I reworked the tune based on the feedback with some ever-so-slight-tweaks including...
 
1) backed off on the over all compression
2) worked some snare EQ to bring her up in the mix a tad
3) pushed Tony's lead up a tad
 
all very slight but I do think overall the mix is a bit stronger..
 
Thanks for your input!!

Sounds good! I like the delay on the guitars slapping in between the chords. I thought the mix still sounded a little dark, but I'm not sure where it is coming from. Guitars and bass are fine, as are the vocals. Maybe just add some top end instrument like a shaker or synth or something to bring some sizzle to the mix?
 
Regards,
Dan

Hard and heavy, just the way I like my DT. Great performances all.
 
The ring on the snare in the beginning has to be damped down. It is really distracting just as the tune gets started.
 
The lead is killer.

This song caught me by surprise.  I've heard a few song from you guys, and this is just different enough to make me happy.  It isn't overly "bright", and has a nice, analog feel to it.  The crunch is warm, yet effective.  Good job all the way around.

Hmmm..they've only been an snuck one out without telling me first......guess I must have forgotten to renew my subscription to the super-fan club.... ;)
 
Anyhoo, head full of stuff that it shouldn't be right now, so can't fully trust me ears but I'm not a fan of the snare sound as it stands tbh. Other than, signature DT which is always a good thing.

Tony, I love it! Great rockin' tune that made me want to pick up my guitar. Terrific guitar tones, good lyrics. Love the vocal. No crits on this one.
