I hate they for saying that. I don't think it is (always or necessarily) true. ---------- Update ---------- I'd love to hear the song with the vocalist on it.

If it weren't for the toms, I wouldn't think these drums are in a box. Seems like a pretty straightforward rock tune. The vocal delivery will make or break it, but it is solid as it stands right now: Guitars are solid, bass is solid, drums are solid. Love your lyrics, as per usual. :thumbs up:

Thanks, I think I see what you mean. We will check it out, thanks! Yeah, that's me singing. :shrugs:

I think this sounds really nice. All the tones are pleasing to listen to. The drums fit better than the first mix I listened to. I am glad the bass player decided to step out a little and play something complimentary to the guitar lines. The end of the song has "baby that's untrue yeah" sung...

It's a competently performed and recorded song. I like the vocalist. Many small details (vocal vibrato, drum sound, overall reverb, guitar tone, among others) lean heavily on a 1980's kind of metal/ballad thing, and it certainly works in that capacity. Good stuff.

The mix is doing great. If dobro can't get the vocal done, I am down to try. ;)

Thanks, we will clean up the HF a little bit on this one.

I like this tempo a lot, the halftime feel stuff always gets me going. Reverse solos at 1:45 are like a promise of things to come, somewhat foreboding.

Sounds good, mangosteen. I like the drum samples.

Well done! I like the lead guitar tones plenty, and the drummer has that shit on lock. I like the background vocals in verse two. Tune has a Grateful Dead feel to it.

It's an Ibanez something or another five string, active pickups, direct into a Great River MP2NV. That is all.

..Fixed. Good catch.

You are right about the hat being loud in places. I can't really change it now, but part of what sounds bad is the MP3 just shredding the brass generally.

Thanks, man - that's awesome.

This is funny. The ric, the jazz and p basses all sat this record out (with the exception of a little fretless Jbass on one song). This is James' Ibanez. It's ugly and inexpensive, but sounds great, and so we just kept reaching for it, lol.

Sounds pretty cool. Your voice and delivery remind me of Eric Clapton.

^^^^this is pretty much how I work^^^^

This is probably the closest thing to a single on Explorer. The increased noise floor at the beginning is an LP playing, and makes more sense in context. Let me know what you think.

Thanks - it's more of a balancing act than ever before, because we are mastering this album as a single song, and dividing it into 23 tracks. It's around 1:18:00. Oh, and it's a guitar. :)
