You know, besides being just a helluva' guy Mike, you've got my vote for 'most diverse musician' on this BBS. Back when I had all my fingers working and I used to record stuff, it all sounded pretty much the same...I have yet to hear 2 tunes of yours that sound the same.
When it started, I thought I was listening to a samij tune... you're getting some cool sounds and textures out of whatever keyboard/synth you're using.
All the lead work rules...it fits. I can't play that fast, lol. It seems like it gets a little loose @2:15, but it may just be that Tom's playing so damned fast I can't follow it.
Fuck, the vocals are excellent.
Okay, there's only one area that I'm a little negative about after the 4th listen, but it's something I noticed on the first - There seems to be too much space between the rhythm gits and the lead...the lead tone is right in your face, but the rhythm tracks sound like they were recorded in a big room (verb issue? recording?). I think the lead tone is perfect, and I'm just wanting the guitars to be more up front...NOT in volume, but in terms of placement. BTW - this is an incredibly minor nitpick that I never would have even mentioned on 99% of the tunes I've heard in here; I had to work pretty hard to find something that bugged me a little.
IN SUMMARY: YOU (ya'll) ROCK.
[edit] - After hitting the "bass boost," I'll comment that it's got more LOW lows than most commercial mixes, which is not necessarily a negative thing...just something worth noting if you're gonna' turn it up to 12 with a kicker box.
