Here is a fun collaboration I did with Bob Gibbs (Bass) and Chris Feener (Last Solo). Everything else was done by me. Enjoy and let me know what you think. https://soundcloud.com/mu...t-ride-ft-chris-feener

Double post, sorry.

Any critiques or thoughts?

My thoughts are and I am no expert but here you go. the rhythm guitars need to come down so you can hear the drums and the solo guitar in the first half or 2/3 of the song. It sounds like a killer drum track just hard to hear it. When you do your solo at the end the mix is a lot better, try to get the rest of the song close to that on your rhythm
section. Very good playing and production,just get the mix better and it will be awesome. It seems a little bit over compressed to me but this is definitely not my genre so it may be ok .

Awesome thanks Teego. I appreciate it.

The mix is nice and wide and I can hear the drums just fine. It's pretty much how metal mixes are done. However, I would pull those leads up a bit, particularly the leads before the final lead.
 
Is there going to be a vocal over this? It sounds like it was mixed with space for a vocal.

Yea, I write all of my pieces hoping someday there will be vocals. Its hard to find a good vocalists in my area.

Love this one, that solo at the end was killer!!! 

Thanks davdud, yea that would be Chris.  He is an insane guitarists. 

Definitely some very fine musicianship going on here. I wonder if you spent time with some volume automation whether this would help bring forward some of the parts as they come into and out of focus during the song, just a thought.
I think I can hear where teego is coming from in regards to the drums, there are times where I wish they had more bite, but this is great mix all the same. Looking forward to some killer vocals at some stage.
