This is the 2nd track called "Spiral", and I am lookin for some fresh ears to listen to it. I'm looking for mainly timing and mixing criticisms, Thanks!

I thought overall it sounds pretty good, the guitar sounds are good and you have created a pretty convincing audio collage which has a nice presence. For me the the upper mids of the percussion sit back a little too far and sound a little constrained but I don't think the top end of that element needs to come forward with it, so finding that balance will require a good ear if you happen to think there is some value in what I have offered. The melodic and harmonic content is interesting to hear and refreshingly not just a showcase for some anonymous fret tapping and high speed licks which actually deliver very little. Maybe a little more punch in the bottom end could also be considered.

Thanks for the listen

Awesome thanks for the feedback! I'll work on it a little more tonight
 
Ok, here is the final version with some added piano at the front and end. I think it's ready for mastering, any thoughts on the final mix?

 
Good, clear recording. The cymbals at the beginning were very clear, and distinct.

But I kept waiting for either some vocals, or a good guitar solo...... :rolleyes:

All the other songs on the album have long, continuous guitar solos, so for this one I wanted to switch it up and just make more of a heavy rythm track
