hey very cool everyone huge thank you for listening/feedback. invaluable stuff as few days back my ears were shot and had no idea on mix lol -

AIC comparisons are great ;) think it's more default limitation of being baritone singer and loving harmony layering in general. i can't really go full throttle above F in middle C without doing falsetto so when tracking the high harmonies eg 5th-dominant ill sing it an octave lower so the highest harmony is actually the lowest note eg sing '1-3-5' triad as '5-1-3' second inversion, the 5th being the lowest note and also strongest/barritone speaking and your brain gets fooled that it's the root melody when it's the dominant 5 - This is how Jerry Cantrell / Layne arranged a lot of signature AIC

also guitar FX is simply hard panning tremolo I/0 setting delay to exact metronome 1/16th dotted (Logic Pro 9)

Great tune. There needs to be more definition for the guitars. To me, they seem to mushy.
 
Nice effects.

Really enjoyed this.  Very AIC but that is not a bad thing at all!  Cool treatment on the drum as well.

I'm hearing some serious Layne Staley influence here. This reminds me of the Dirt era Alice In Chains. Very well done, as always bro.

;) sweet. thanks bro yea maybe played that album more than twice ;p 

nice one.. well done, sounds grunge

load of great stuff here....killer guitar work and mixing. I would only add there is something very fatiguing in the mix...I've have to have the whole project in my hand to see what it causing that but I suspect its mainly on the vox....some type of effect....out the gate is was a great effect but quickly had me turning down volume....which is a shame cuz I really like the tune but the grittiness was really getting the best of me.
 
this is an excellent tune and no question you put loads of work into it to make this a really winner~~
 
great work!

After seeing your description in the header I had to listen!!  I think you certainly invoked the spirit of FN.  Personally, I think Justin Beiber deserved it.  Great song, arrangement and playing!!
 
Next, why not have a song where Richard Rorty discusses post-structuralism with Katy Perry?

Well that was quite a trip. and the things going back and fourth between my ears was pretty cool. What tools were used on that guitar?

The things that are going back and fourth between my ears? You may want to back them off a couple of db while the words are going.
