Members Smilin' Bob Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 Good harmonies. Put the vocals out front more - can't understand the words buried in the sludge of the drums and distorted guitars. But maybe that's the style? What's important to you?

Compression etc should take care of the lyrics when I mix it properly. I have a lot of cleaning up to do etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarbilly74 Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 I think your music kicks ass. I have no negative criticism on anything on this song, it just flat out rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aman74 Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 I like it. I think it has a flavor and style that's a bit different than what you usually hear, but I sense some trepidation about going further or weirder with what you've started. I could be WAY off base, but wanted to suggest that if there was territory you were afraid to go that you should give it a whirl. There's certainly nothing to lose.

Members Cirrus Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 I think it's cool! I have an opinion about the drum part if you're open to thoughts on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AxAxSxS Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 I think its great! The backing vocs could be a little better and blended in better, but the main vocs are awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having identity problems with my music for sure. I'm a fan of British Explosion, Rock, Cyberpunk, Thrash, Electronica and Doom. This one has a bit of rock/british explosion I suppose. The vid in my sig is similar only with a bit of electronica thrown in. So I suppose if I have a niche, it's future rock. But some of the album tracks I am working on are straight up prog metal/thrash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MadKeithV Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 Hello Glenn Danzig's bigger brother! That's what your vocals reminded me of - you have a very recognizable sound and it works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sex Panther Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 Sounds good. More importantly, the song sounds good. Mix the hell out of it and focus on making the backing vocals blend a little more so they're less generic and garagey. Not that the melodies are generic and garagey, just the mix, which I'm sure you'll fix up. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cirrus Posted May 29, 2012 Members Share Posted May 29, 2012 Sure. More cowbell? EXACTLY!!!Nah I was just wondering what it'd sound like with a more direct drum beat. At the moment the double kick stuff doesn't feel like it supports the grove, whereas something simpler might give the whole thing some swagger. Just my opinion, take it or leave it, I'm only the GOD OF ARRANGEMENT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason it is in there is I wanted my music to have my influences seep into the music. So the double bass is a nod to the thrash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Nerine Posted May 30, 2012 Members Share Posted May 30, 2012 I don't mind the vocals mixed a bit lower. I like the voice too. It sort of reminds me of a Tool/Mastodon mix. Cool stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The double kick, whether you like it or not, dates it quite quickly. It also kills the groove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
