It is still in the conceptual stage, but I think this recording captures the overall "vibe" the finished song will have. Our desired sound is "Southern Metal" along the lines of Black Label Society, Down and Corrosion of Conformity.

What do you think of it?
 
Ahhhh!!!! Sweet. I like COC, and this definitely has some flavor of them here. I kept waiting for Pepper to kick in... :D
Nice playing man. I can't wait to hear this one finished. Keep us posted.....
 
Can't hear it. Window Media Player can't play it. Even saved it local and tried. Can't play it.

those are great sounding toms
how did you get that such powerful sound?
spec?

fucking guitars are crunchy as hell...i fucking like

great job man!
i just listened more...
heavily processed drums?
 
Thanks for all the positive feedback!
What I am most concerned about, is whether or not that first lead in the very beginning takes away from the heaviness of the song.



systmovadown: The drums are accoustic with the exception of the kick, which has a triggered kick layered over the acoustic recording. I think the "bigness" of the toms can be attributed to: The way they were Eq'd, nice thick reverb, and new skins being hit nice and hard with some emphasis. Compression was used only on the kick and the snare. That's it as far as the processing...
 
Mics:
2 Joe Meek JM27s for overheads
SM57s on the snare and one on each tom
Beta 52 for kick (blended with a triggered kick)
