The Truth

I don't know if anyone is getting tired of these or not but here is another one called The Truth.

Love the bass man! Sounds great and the line is very nice indeed. The only thing i would put against this song is the ride cymbal, sounds a little too 'ding'. Not enough sustain on it really. Apart from that, great track! good job!!

The first time I heard this guys kit I told him, "That ride is going to be a problem" It was a problem, more ways than 1.

Dawg, I like this!! Very cool song. Reminds me of a local band a friend is in. They do some stuff like this, and I love it. Since Tifstorey brought up the cymbal, I noticed it. Probably wouldn't have had I not seen his post. Sounds good to me, but what do I know?

Good song.

Nice tune! I think the kick has a little too much boom and the bass guitar sort of over powers the guitars. Try cutting a little around 63Hz on the kick and adding some 10k. The guitars sound good but a little indistinct. Other than that I really enjoyed the song.

Nice tune, works well!!
About the mix. The low end needs some serious checking. The bass drum is way too boomy and big and bass guitar/drum clash badly. You need to get some separation down there. Also the overall sound of the track is a bit dull (may be the huge low end is masking high frequencies thou). Did you master the track?
Overall the mix is quite decent, but you need to get some air in there and get rid of that huge low end
Nice job!

No mastering done. Would no doubt help.

Yeah, I thought so.
I think in a song like this it is quite important to have some separation down there. Mastering the song would indeed help, but not that much. It can give some air and balance the low/high end, but it really wont give you the separation with the bassdrum, bassguitar and electric guitar that this song needs.
But oh well, this is jsut my humble opinion

I did notice the lack of air. What are you listening to it on?

 

[Kainz]

I listened it with Dynaudio BM6As and AKG K240DF headphones.

Nice tune!
put a low cut on the guitars, I can clearly hear some rumbling down in the lowend.
The guitars sound a little distant and fake, too much buzz, not enough grind.

Like others said, the low-end area is to check over again.

Besides that, nice job.
