Cool tune. I like the mix of the guitars and bass... nice solo.   And not bad for a non-sung lead vocal.   
 
Mix-wise, the toms still sound a bit out of place to me, perhaps a little too high in pitch and dry?  I'd also like to hear more "pop" on the snare.   And maybe some delay/echo during the vocal sections at 2:11 and 2:50?  Just some random thoughts...
 

You can listen to Lochness here. I posted remix notes above.

Because there are a lot of tom fills, I think these lower pitched versions just fit the feel of the song. 
 
I'm definitely liking this mix much better.   
 
 
 

Thanks Stevec. I had 2 drummers in mind who have very similar playing styles. One was my late friend Robert Scott whom I wish I never knew personally but would have because  he was that good. The other is Terry Bozio. I always try and mimic Robert's technique when I write for drums. I saw Terry Bozio play with Jeff Beck and was blown away. I like Beck but Terry stole the show.

That was fun.  I liked how it got more melodic in the second half of the song.  

Thanks for checking it out Old55!

Definite improvement.  I like.

Thanks for the good words Wookie! I appreciate it.
 
It's no secret around here that I think believing in god is nonsense. I try not to put down people because they believe because it is their choice. Ironically, there are those who say they believe and yet, I hold more moral values than they do. I believe that humanity can overcome it's flaws and work together and ultimately, live in peace. I have no delusions that it will be easy but eventually, peace will come. This is the gist of what this song is about.

Ok, what an effin weird ride you just took me on.  Love the writing, the guitar playing, the sound, the totally delicious twist of style, damn that's good stuff.  Not sure I care for the vocal stuff on the first half but the second half really worked, in my opinion of course. 

Can't say I like all of this song Robert, but it's a creative trip for sure. What I do like though, is the beautiful guitar work from around the 3 min mark, and I couldn't help wishing you'd shut up so I could hear it! Nice lead guitar after the spoken vocal ends too.
 
One thing that puzzles me - the title, Lochness? I'm familar with Loch Ness, obviously, but I don't get the connection.
