Here is another Christian Rock song that I have just finished writing, tracking and mixing.  I have had this tune around for a LONG time and could never get around to actually putting some lyrics to it.  I finally just forced myself to put something on paper.  I think this mix is pretty close, but let me know if you think something needs tweaking.  The song is the second one from the top; thanks for listening.

Cool... it has a Beatles kind of thing going on there....  reminds me of the groove in Taxman.
 
 
 
 

Ya....  it kind of has that Taxman groove to the song.  That's part of the reason I was reluctant to finish the song, I think.  I was playing around with it a couple of months ago, right before I went to Vegas on business for 3 weeks in May.  I finally decided to see if I could make the groove and the song, enough of my own (so to speak) that one might be able to forget about any resemblance to Taxman.  I am hoping that when the lyrics kick in, the focus goes back onto my song.
 
I had to look up Taxman at one point and make sure that I had not completely reproduced the notes and the chords without realizing that I did.  It is different, just has that same groove.  Hey, at least I have temporarily escaped my "Petty" resemblances.  

Rock on brother. Sounds great. I've got a few Christian rock songs on this forum too. Check them out if you get a chance. Again, great song.

I listened, but I listened to Invisible too, and I liked it better. Good job on both, nice performance, recording/mix.
 
I liked Invisible better because I thought the acoustic guitars L & R were nice, and fit nicely with the electric up the pipe. I'm going to give this technique a try.

So when did Tom Petty play  with The Beatles? Lol.
 
Great sounding tune! Very nice mix and everything sounds great.

GREAT tune!  I really like your guitar tone on this piece and the how its sitting in the mix. KUDOS!

Lead foot,

Thanks for listening Bro. I gave some of your tunes a listen on SC and they are well done, nice work.

Robbie,

Invisible has been my favorite song that I have written to date, things just came together nicely on that song.

Dan,

Thanks for listening as well. I am pretty happy with the way this song has turned out as well. Hopefully it all works.

Grabs you right away.  Love the riff and the vocal fits real well with it.  seems like everything is over compressed though.  I listened to invisible also.  Same compression only more so.

Dan, Nice job on this and nice guitar sound. Everything sounds good to me and the production is nice and clear. Nice one!!
 
Peace and blessings, John
