This is the 1st song that will be released from our second record.  Many of the songs for this album are not even written yet but we have been playing this out for a while now though it was not ready in time to make it onto our 1st release.
We have been getting a lot of fan requests for this song to be released so we made it one of the 1st tracks to get laid down.  I am still tweaking it here and there but it's pretty close at this point.

I am on rhythm guitars & back vocals on this one.  Thanks for listening!

You're right, Chuck.  This is close to being radio ready.  I enjoyed the song and the lyrics.  The mix had enough drive and energy to capture my attention all the way through.  Good job with this one!

Awesome Job Chuck, you've come a long in the production area. Great tune and performances. Loved it

Great stuff, Chuck.  

excellent Chuck - great song well recorded and performed

The bass is more prominent than the vocals. If you're in the mood feel free to tweak that right there.

Love the tune.

Thank you all for your comments. I really appreciate your time spent checking it out. -James, I know... I am getting a lot of pressure from within the band to make the stuff more low end heavy (leaving more bottom end rumble in there)and on this song the bass tow more of the line down there than the kick so I had to mix it that way to pacify them. At this point I think I need a little more gain vox, the guitar lead needs to come up, and I am going to tweak the drums a bit more.

SWEET!  dude this very much reminds me of Limp Bizkit and also Vertical Horizon in some groove places in the verses. get it out there it's so radio ready & catchy & furthermore close to the pulse of 2001-2010 era sound that is rapidly disappearing just like the wonderful 90s.

love it!

Great tune, Chuck. Agreed about the bass needing to back off a db or two. Just don't lose that nifty whoomph that leads into and out of the breaks.

I don't know that I'd necessarily bring the vox up through volume, though. You might be able to leave the level right where it is and carve a hole for it with EQ instead. Try automating a broad dip around 1KHz on the instrument bus that takes a couple db out of the instrument mix during vocal phrases. It's tedious work but can let you bring out the vocal from a dense mix without actually turning it up, thus sustaining the energy of the instruments.

Wow, that's excellent. The guys have you covered on the mix, so I'll just say I really enjoyed this.
