Drums are getting better, and I'm happy with the general vibe and the pan lay-out . . any thots on the bassiness? I like it, but would be interested to hear if it sounded too bottomy on anyone's system.

Hi geoffrey, had a listen to "Hit The Spot", I like it. Regarding the bass levels (and this is based on me listening on laptop speakers), I didn't find the bass that obvious or well defined. I can hear lead and rhythm guitars, but no definite bass guitar. Now, obviously I'm not going to get gut-busting bass on a laptop, and I don't know if that's what you were going for, but as so so many people choose to listen on crappy systems these days isn't it important to get a response from someone listening that way? But hey, I'm pretty cloth eared.
Ok, now that I've rationalised and covered myself from rebuke, let me say that I really liked the mix. Great guitar tones, double tracked vocals are always good in my book, and yes those drums sound good. Only thing I would say is that it's a little polite at times. Smear a bit more grime on the vocals, the drums, the bass, well on everything really. I just think your song could growl a little more.
Anyhow, just my 0.02 worth, I hope it's of some use to you, and if not feel free to disregard me. I am a mere novice at the end of the day.
