Primarily, everything sounds very narrow, and like I'm listening through an old telephone. Fix that first.

Dan

Have to agree with Dan's observation, very narrow sound stage and narrow frequency range. Will keep an eye out for the remix.

Thanks folks! :)
Someone else was suppose to sing it and they are too busy. I'm just going to call it art and leave the vocals! lol.
I have no choice on that right now.
I agree now that you all pointed it out. it's thin. I will try and fix that but kind of busy for a couple weeks...
peace!

If you are going for an early-Beatles-meets-Nascar vibe, add a harmony vocal on the chorus and you've nailed it!!!
I get your constraints, but I totally get what you are trying to do. I think you could get a different tone on that lead guitar, it sounds very thin and just noodles around, and it sounds kind of like you recorded it with a heavy blanket over the amp. The rhythm guitar sounds much, much better - its very clear and well-mixed.
Maybe drop the lead guitar out of the background while the vocal is doing its thing? Just a thought.
cheers, hope you get some time for it!
