Unpossible!
Anybody wanna take a listen and rip it apart. It's hard rock/heavy metal kinda stuff.



I need to fix a few dropped kicks in the beginning of the song yet, and the toms need some work yet (I think I screwed up some of the envelopes).

Thanks!

:D
 
Sounds great man.

Very good recording and preformance.

I have no nits with this, exept the snare sounds kinda odd, but then again I`m not to familiar with this style.

great job man. :)
 
Since you have the guitars hardpanned it might be cool to try to bring the overheads in a little as they sound hard panned as well. It seems like there is alot of room in the middle of your mix.

Vocals sounds good.

Is there bass in this tune, if there is its not very distinguishable from the guitars. Maybe you should trying doubling up on those guitars with something with less distortion, that cuts through abit more, just a thought.

HAVE FUN!
 
Throughout the intro the snare sounds like it's next door. It picks up with the vocals though.
The voice sounds good when singing but l lose it when the death groan begins.
The toms are a little loud relative to the snare.
Do people really kick the bass pedal that fast? Ferociously fast.
A well defined bass in the centre would be great as a uniting piece ubder the vocals.
As I said the vocals, mainly, are really good.
The riff seems good & some of the changes are Toolish - in the best possible way.
 
Another killer song. There's something wrong with the snare and toms but can't quite put my finger on it. Bad verb = bad vibe? They sound detached from the rest of the song and a little too loud. Metal BD sounds great, the vocals sit fine and the guitars sound dark and powerful.
 
NL5: You listen to a lot of Nevermore don't you?

I think you could have made the rhythms sit a bit more forward and put something like keys or a lead to fill in the middle a bit. or a bass, as it's been mentioned. if there was bass it needs some serious eq'ing. vocally you seem to have some pretty high ambitions, and I think some of the stuff you pull off well.. other parts need work in your delivery as you don't quite reach the notes you're going for.
 
You went in a different direction than I thought you would but I actually like it brighter. The drums are still loud for the mix especially the snare. Could it be a timing issue because in spots, especially in the beginning, the snare seems to speed up and be out ahead of the rest of the instruments?
