Looking for feedback on this track,
The middle part where there is just bass and drums will have a guitar solo added but its being recorded by someone else. Other than that the track is complete, so looking for feedback on how it sounds. Thanks.

Sounds great to me although the guitar solo in the middle seems a little loud. I wonder if an exciter or some high-end lift might help the vocal sparkle a bit. Really cool song, the drum and bass sound great.
 
Thanks easlern, I think when the first solo is added the second solo will be easier to set to a good level.
 
Good groove in the intro and transitions. Vocal sounds good. That guitar on the right in the chorus isn't playing in the pocket. The guitar solo lets the song down.
 
The guitar solo is fine - it's not letting the song down in my humble opinion. This is a punk song that rocks and so should the solo.
Bass sounds out of tune in the solo. Authentic punk type vocals but you are going flat all over the place.
The song is great - just tighten up the performance and it will be even better... :D:D:D:D
 
Is it me or does the guitar solo sounds off-beat at times? oO
I don't think that kind of solo fits the song well. The song suggests something different for me, less guitar-hero, more noise/punk/new-wave/weird-sounds/outthere.
The vocal sound really cool imo. Nice song too. I get an early 80s new wave/post-punk kinda vibe from this (because of the vocals i guess).
 
I really like the vibe. Kind of gave me an Iggy Pop feel. Liked the groove.

Guitars sound decent, but seem to be missing a little detail in the upper midrange.

Bass was also decent, but a little sterile. Like all the low mids were cut.

Dr. SRvb - dunno - the guitar solo sounded OK to me.

The vocal effects were different than everything else on the track. They didn't really enhance the mix IMO.

I'm being a bit too critical. I liked the tune.

this was sweet. i don't like the sound of the bass. sounds underwater. i'd like to hear it either mellower or punchier, but it sounds just like the mids are all scooped out. if you are going to keep it with that tone i'd at least lower it in volume.

i agree the solo doesn't fit the style but it doesn't kill the song. you'd be better off with like a one note bend type solo or something with attitude rather than showing chops. the vocalist is a little monotone but i like the quality of the voice. the only things i'd change are redoing the solo and then try a few more vocal takes to see if you can get a better one. if not it's good as is but i think it could be even better.
 
I think bass sound fine, I could understand wanting more punch, but sounds fine to me. Vocals I like but on my system they just drown out everything. I understand wanting them upfront, but some volume reduction wouldn't seem to hurt.

I thought the lead was pretty good. Kind of out of character for the song, but the song seems to be about being out of character. I liked it. Other than the vocals too high, the mix was wonderfully sloppy. I mean that in a good way.
 
The other guitar player has more of a style that you guys are talking about, I'll post it when we get his part recorded.
 
Rockin tune. I wouldn't drench the vocals with quite so much reverb but that's personal taste. I also think if the drums sounded nastier they'd fit more with the vibe of the tune. Otherwise really good job
