"Balls",

Nice cover. Seems you got the mood down. Vox are pretty good. Are you looking for mix/recording advice, or just for thumbs up or down? Cuz there's some tuning problems on both guitars and bass, too that would make crawdad's ears blow up ;) (the D string on the lead guit... ouch! :))

If this is just for craps and laughs, it's cool brutha. :cool:

nice

im liking it alot, being that im a big pepper fan, the guitars are a little outta tune but aside from that this sounds realy good and has a very good mix in my opinion. vox sound good to, realy enjoyed hearing this thanks for sharing. tim pate
 
Hey Balshaza,
...Cool stuff man, I'll bet this was fun to record. The only thing that really bugs me is the snare...whew. Are you takin requests....... how's about Stone cold Bush, or anything off of Mo Fo........ .........nice work man.......G
 
i actually like the snare....it's cool...

the vocals are really good...

that out of tune guitar though, whew ;)

but still fun to listen to.

my HS cover band could have eaten you for lunch on this song though. hehe...it was always a fun one.
 
Danger Will Robinson, Danger!!! Tuning problems ahead!! ;)
Pretty good otherwise....oh yeah ...another vote for a different snare sound. That one sounds like a nail gun.
 
i agree that the snare needs a huge makeover.............it sounds good performance wise.............not a masterful production recording wise, but it captures the main vibe pretty well............
 
Actually guys the snare is fake
It's from fruity loops

Are you singing? The vocals sound really great on this! Very true to form.

I didn't care for the drum sound on this -- imhop -- They seemed a bit too out front compared to the rest.

You totally have a good vibe going. I think the singing is really excellent on this!

Nice job!
 
very nice.
I am listening on a pc.
The voice sounds like behind the instruments, does it have any delay or too much reverb? I'll like it to be as defined as the bass.
Also, there are some cymbal hits that sound odd, as if the kick is not supporting them. But then again, that's not a recording issue.

Cheers, Andrés
 
The vocals are good.. very clear, and the voice is nice. The Bass is pretty tight (except at the end when he starts doin' more licks) and fairly accurate to the original...

but....

(and there's always a "but") :p

the guitars and drums were pretty inadequate. The guitar intro was not true to the original (sort of like the "cheaters version") and the guitar sound/playing is lacking (i.e. previously mentioned tuning issues). The bass drum was nearly non-existant. That really needs to be brought up.. it has almost no presence... and I agree that the snare sound was annoying... but sometimes there's just not much you can do to "help" programmed drums.

Over-all though, this is a good cover... I think with some cleaning up it could be a great remake... the vocals and bass are already there.. just bring the quality of the guitars up and consider some different drum sounds and it would be pretty spiffy. :p

The guitars are too far out of tune to even give an opinion on this one.....ok,now the guitars are gone and it's just bass ,drums and vocals.......nice groove on the bass and the vocals sound pretty good.

That chorus on the lead guitar is making the out of tune guitar even worse than it is.....chorus and an out of tune guitar are not friends.:)

Overall this is a pretty good little sketch of this cover.
