Not liking the mix... But the song is okay

 

[Chryst Krispies]

Smells like 5150.

Reamped through 5150 IIRR.

i kind of like suecof's cymbal sounds, especially on the new black dahlia, not so much here tho (sounds programmed)

guitar tone on this is too grainy for me

 

[GarethSE]

Staggeringly average.

 

[Erik Monsonis]

The mix is not for me, although it sounds clear and defined, but I don't like the guitar sound not even a bit.
The music sounds really nice! kind of a thrashier LoG, nice vocals too! Is that your band Djab?

The thing that distracts me the most here is the snare. It sounds like the snare on recent All that remains / Bury your dead stuff and i'm not a huge fan of this kind of snare sound.

It's not my band, those are my friends from my hometown in France. They're my buddies and i'm also a longtime fanboy

I've heard most of the rest of the album as well and it sounds pretty awesome and diverse also. This song here is one of the most straightforward songs.

BTW I love that chorus !

I kinda agree with the "thrashier LOG" thing. If i had to describe what i've heard from the album, it's like Pantera had sex with Fear Factory, Chimaira, Bury your dead & Pestilence.

And i'm a huge fan of Fred vocals also, though i think his vocals on other songs are way more noticeable than the ones on that specific song.

artworks really nice imo, also i kinda like the sound of their demo recording more.
It just has this weird eery guitar tone to it that suits whats being played.

Personally i prefer the album tone better, though i don't like it all the way either
I've heard preproductions they've done in the past that sound better than all of this (tone-wise)
They have decent if not good production on their releases so far but i still feel they haven't got the production they deserve/that fits their music 100%.

I'm sure the drummer is loving the mix, haha. Is there a band behind those drums?

Drums are kinda empowering lol, but it has also to do with that specific song I've heard the album and this drums sound fits well for the mid tempo parts where the drums are not so "pounding" like in that song

 

[joelplagues]

that hi hat sounds soo programmed and horrid. should be brought centre a little.

 

[lolzgreg]

Yeah, I'm not loving this one much. There's nothing that stands out as being awesome to me, and as a whole I don't think the mix works to any great extent.

 

[Emdprodukt]

the snare is reall annoying!

 

[Black neon bob]

The music is great!

Mix is really not too bad, i guess i would like to hear a bit more bass(guitar) and less grainy guitars on music like this.
