Nice I dig it man. Sounds to me kind of pantera / fear factory influenced (two bands i love so thats a compliment). Great guitar playing man. Everything seems to sit well and is real clear / easy on the ears. I can only listen on headphones right now so I don't have much in the way of mix comments but ill come back and check it out when I can turn the speakers up.

Really like it man
take care

This took an age to start up. What do you use to generate that buzz/static noise thing? Sample?
I've outstayed my welcome on the topic of generic guitar sounds but well...
The song, perfromance, arrangements do sound exactly like the genre. Nice & tight lacks anything in the higher frequencies though.
The toms come WAY too far forward - the 1st time has shock value the second doesn't.

I like where this is heading. Sounds good to me. I'd get rid of teh static buzz after the tune starts going. It almost sounds like there is static. Use it more as an effect just in certain spots. I do like the beat, and progression. Cool tune.

I think another Guitar take will greatly improve the overal sound.

Drum sounds very good except for the 2 loud toms.
Static noise is kinda ennoying at some times.
Guitars good use some boost in the high's I think !!

Overall nice take

Good playing and tune. Mixwise it sound too low end heavy to me. I'd make those guitars attack the listener, as they sound kind of back in the mix now. Also maybe reduce the midrange on the bass or lower it a bit to reduce that low end feel too.
Good start man

Thanks for the comments!

I am using my computer speakers that came with my computer (and I have a cheap soundcard) so I'm having some troubles finding what sounds good.
At work with a good soundcard I hear things alot differently then I do at home. The mix issues you mentioned I cannot really hear at home but I do when listening at work.
That's why feedback is very much appreciated

My next "upgrade" will be a good sound card and some monitor speakers though.

rayc, the 'buzz' is actualy the falloff sound of a industrial type drum sound effect s I have overlayed over the normal drums to give it a bit more industrial feel.

I'll be re-working it soon, if anyone has anything else they wamnt to add feel free.
Thanks again

Thanks
