Do you really want me to? You'd get me getting the viewpoint of the guy who mixed THIS.
 
Lol, well, that is the point isn't it? Everyone hears things differently, we are influenced by our likes and dislikes, you may think my stuff sounds like crap and go ahead and tell me why. Up to you man, just saying I was critical of your song, and realized I hadn't put my money where my mouth was, and offered up something for review.
 
Cool. I will take a listen later. Keep in mind my advice may be very non-technical. Like, instead of saying, "take some 300 out of the snare drum" I may say "that repeat-y bang-y thing sounds to boomy"
 
"that repeat-y bang-y thing sounds to boomy"

.....that works for me.
 
I'm on it.

oh, and to whoever asked: it's "pelvic THERMO-meter." Like thermometer, but intentionally pronounced wrong. Cause that's how the guy from Panther Musk would do it.

Mr. Steve. . .reread your last post. What would you add to the drums? They are each EQ'd and sent to a reverb in an Aux channel, but that's it.

yeah, sorry......
bad song = bad recording
You should have called this "road to nowhere".....
 
I think this is a lot of fun, but the vocal doesn't seem to have changed since the last time I heard it. It simply doesn't "fly".

Now I know this is a big ask... but get this kind of touch on the vocal... and the rest will follow...

Aerosmith...

Hmmm... Something about your voice just sounds sarcastic, I guess. I dunno. Maybe it could work.

I'm thinking that with the drums you could add more hits. It doesn't sound like your "drummer" is working that hard, if you know what I mean? It sounds like "he's" just sitting back there playing a leisurely, basic beat. Have "him" play something more complex with more hits, and you might get more energy out of the mix.
 
I didn't think it sounded too bad. Yeah the guitars had a little bit of that high-mid fizz. I thought the bass sounded good. Good 80's verb on things

The only problem I had with the vocals was that you seemed to be over-doing trying to sound like Def Leppard.
