Great 'wall of sound' - Guitars sound great. 
The mix between instruments is good too but overall the mix lacks top and bottom end definition - it all sounds a bit 'middly' on my speakers.

Good performance on vocal and guitars. Both are top notch. I'd like to hear a bit more bass and drums, but that's just me.
Really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing it.

You chose one of my all time favorite songs by Soundgarden, and one of the most difficult to cover.  You did more than a credible job, especially capturing the angst of the song.  This shows much promise, and a little more attention to the mix would make this a gem.

Mmmmm "angst..." The bitter tears of anguish and despair. But enough about my love life? Hadn't hear the cover, I like your version. And I wouldn't have heard it if I hadn't read Daryl's post, but I agree with him. I'll bet the neighbors heard you tracking the vocals :-D

Good job though

I haven't heard the original, but I'm sure this is better. Great performances, production and mix!

Hey, Robert,
 
Nice work on this great SG cover!  Great playing and excellent job on the vocals.
 
By the way, "Learning To Fly" sounds really good too, another one of my favorites.
 
Good stuff!

Daryl1968 - Thanks for checking it out. I'll look into the mids.

rscain - Thank you. I think if I drop the mids a bit, the bass and drums may pop out better.

Lynn - Thanks for the comment. It's always a work in progress.

Theband - Thanks for checking it out! If my neighbors heard the vocals being tracked then I'm sure your's did too. Jim lives in Ohio and I live in Massachusetts.

Scottytunes - Thanks Scotty! I wouldn't say it's better. It is different than the original. I forgot to check the midi before I did it all so it's faster than the original by around 6. I had it at 108 and I think the original is 102 or slower.

Bob - Thanks for the comment. Jim did a really good job with the vox. Learning to fly was a fun one for me as I love the song as well.
