Hi everyone.
This is my first attempt at recording, mixing and mastering.

This is a band that I used to be in until I moved away from Adelaide.
They are called BLOCKADE.

My Gear: Mac i7 SSD 4gb Ram, Cubase Studio 4, Tascam Fw 1082, Joe Meek Twin Q

Everything recorded at rehearsal in one day.
Mixed in the box. Mastered using Izotope Ozone.

Could anyone tell me what I should improve etc.
Any pointers on guitar tone would be much appreciated. The guitars are double tracked SM 57 on a Mesa Boogie.

Ive uploaded the same track twice with slightly different mastering.
All feedback negative or positive would be great. Like I said this is my first crack at recording a band and my first real mix of a whole band so any comments are appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Please Help!

Ok Ive realised that the toms are a bit boomy and there is a bit of a boomy bottom end overall. I'll be doing what is hopefully the last mix over the next few days and any comment would be appreciated.
