Farce of Nature
The last song on the album I'm working on. Hopefully it will be a good finale.


 
that link's not working for me -- the ellipsis (...) is actually showing up in my address bar - is that right?
 
The song reminds me a bit of Tool at times....has some good changes that mix it up. I like it.
 
i like it alot. my gripes about the mix are really minimal i think they're mostly just preferences of style. Anyway, i would bring up the cymbals a bit and there's a part at or before about 4:00 where it breaks down and most of the guitar work is on the left side of the panning spectrum i think it be better to spread it out some. i think i heard two or three clean guitars just picking something and i think they're all on the left. but like i said it sounds cool as is. every instrument comes out very clearly. just nit picking.
 
Sounds alright. Vocals need to be a bit louder in the quieter parts. And need a small amount of verb just to place them in the mix. I couldn't really hear the hi-hats either. Cymbals up a bit.

Some of the drumming is nicely arranged. Are they samples? If they are the snare sounds very robotic and similar between hits.

Guitar riffs are cool.
 
Nice work. The quiet parts DO sound a lot like Tool (though the heavy bits have enough edge that it doesn't sound like you're just stealing their style.)

I agree with a lot of the critiques so far: The quiet vocals could stand to come up a bit. A lot of the vocals could use some reverb. And some of the guitars would sound better panned a little closer to the center.

Otherwise, good work.
 
I really like this song, man.
Some great musicianship you've got going there, everything's nice and tight. On the voices I would experiment with flangers or choruses here and there, just to put some salt and pepper on them. The voice in the quiet parts just needs some definition. Otherwise, great work! ;)
Love your guitar sound.....

Joe :):):):)
 
Thanks for the feedback!

I agree about the panned guitar solo intro. I wanted to keep the intro subtle until the vocals stop, but I panned it too hard to the left. I also think the vocals will sound better if I reduce the lower mids and add a little reverb.

Waffleness: the drums are programmed on a 10 year-old Roland R-70 drum machine. I plan on bringing up the open hi-hat more and bring up the reverb on the snare more.

Thanks again everyone. :)
 
Yep - just a bit of reverb on the vocals maybe some delay to spice 'em up. Nice tones on the guitars.... Drum programming is pretty good with dynamics as required...Lyrics definitely well written and suit the genre to a T...
