I hate mixing my own vocals!!!

Vox and acoustics are very "close" while overdriven guitars and drums seems to be further. I would remix it again.
I think it is a matter of Vol and Comp.

Anyway it is a very good song and singing is great, you've got a great voice (lucky bastard). The song reminds me of Opeth, but don't take it too much into account cause I only listened to one Opeth's album.
 
@The_Shred! This means a lot to me!! Thank you. Still diggin´ your stuff a fucking lot, man :worship:

I cannot wait to show you the entire, finished version with lead contributions of Metaltastic, Gavin and Keregioz! This will be the first song of 7 songs for a concept album about Stephen King´s "The dark Tower" :)

Yeah man I guess that makes two of us wanting to show the other our finished products!

That acoustic sounds so perfect aswell! Good job! Can't wait to hear the finished album :D :kickass:

Haha Jevil, thanks dude :kickass:

You concerned my fears about the distortion parts. The problem is, this part begins after the part where happens the most dynamically and track wise (3:34) so it sounds a bit weak. Maybe I record and add two JVM tracks (this is only V-amp so far) for the distortion parts.

Opeth is one of my faves, and certainly it plays a role concerning the sound and singing style, but not songwriting wise.

Yeah :headbang: Is your album/project finished already, James?

Thank you very much!! I used a Tlm103 for the western guitars. Pretty good for acoustics imo :)

Not yet dude, nearly got all the rhythm guitars down and all the drums though. Going well and sounding good! Can't wait to finally get all my shit on 1 CD!

Awesome man, what brand acoustic you use for this?
 
I love this project, and I'm so excited about hearing the rest of it :)

When I first heard this track (a few weeks ago) I was worried the singer (who I now learned, is you) wouldn't have a good voice, but this fits perfectly!
First thing I noticed though, is that it sounds to scooped and has some high frequency noise I don't like. Maybe this is just me... But that's my opinion about the mixing.

Also, the snare sounds better from last time I heard this song (or am I just not remembering the last mix to well?)

Good job, and good luck. I'll be following this for sure!

Looking forward to it, man :kickass:

For this I used a washburn western guitar (with quite old strings, to let it sound not too polished). I own this guitar since 1996, I´d never give it away.

Thank you very much, man :headbang: It´s good to hear that!

You are absolutely right, I improved a lot of things in the mix, also the snare I tamed pretty much.

I still don´t have a project/band name for it, but when I found a good name, promo/myspace& stuff will start :Smokin:
 
ive been trying to record my own vocals just to complete my song. Im not really satisfied. u have done a good job \m/
 
Yeah, mr. mirrrooar has returned!!! For me the vox even could be a tad more upfront, or acoustics a bit down. But i think it´s because i really dig your voice:headbang: (hope this makes sense:)). Furthermore i think it will be pretty hard to mix this vocals bad... haha

Keep it up!!!
