could only find youtube sorry! but i think its sounding quite sweet!
in my opinion best b.o.o production i've heard

 

[donimoines]

mmm the ending

 

[JeffTD]

From what I can tell... guitar tone sucks ass and the synths are annoying. Otherwise mix is pretty solid, especially compared to the other albums!

 

[Pedro Teixeira]

wow... this gets old really fast... synths are indeed annoying... nothing special about this at all... (musicality wise)

 

[Harry Hughes]

Yeah, rhythm guitars sound a bit fucking weird.
And what the hell is with that bit at 3:14 and then it suddenly stopping for half a second? That just sounds really terrible, really can't understand why a band would think that sounds good.
Not including that bit there, the song isn't bad I guess. Pretty damn techy and some cool grooves.

Gay as fuck.

bulb version was better

edit: wait, IS this the bulb version?

anyway, the synths are what annoys me the most, i love synths, but the choice of sounds doesn't fit very well imo

I doubt it, every mix that guy's done sounds exactly the fucking same, even if its not a band that needs the kind of sound he gets in his mixes.
But, I could be totally, totally wrong.

Man those synths, when i first clicked i thought another youtube window was playing a song at the same time.

 

[Chris_P_Critter]

Synths are so distracting that I can't hear anything else.

Final grade = F

 

[Ermz]

Those are some of the most edited sounding solos I've ever heard. The whole thing kinda is. Almost like listening to Guitar Pro.

Don't think its bulb.. I remember a thread some weeks (months ?) ago where the guy doing this posted a few replys.

The guitars is all axefx if im not mistaken.. also remember they said they were going for a analog sound with lots of real tapes and so on.

Cant listen here at work, so not sure how it actual turned out.

 

[AgentX]

On my cheap work headphones something sounds really boxy about the whole mix but i will give it another listen when I get back.

What with all the rattling from the bass? is it a percussion instrument or something?

 

[Emdprodukt]

how do they always manage to sound like shit? boring.

 

[abigor731]

yeah it isn't bulb, bulb was that:

i'm neither a bulb fanboy nor a bulb hater, but its a fact that the synths of the bulb version are superior

 

[Pedro Teixeira]

Not bulb obviously. Some dude tracked it and it was mixed by either jason suecof or mark lewis.

Also... "going for a natural sound with real tapes and shit" but using axe-fx for guitars as well as those super edited takes? Talk about irony... This band is seriously lame, horrible music IMO!

 

[Erik Monsonis]

bulb version was way better.

 

[GarethSE]

This band seems absolutely determined to get rid of every scrap of originality and individuality they had on the first album.

 

[Put]

Feel the love

Key rape. This is just the single though, they probably released this for the high population of Rise kids in the scene.
