Drums: Tamas through stock mics...
Guitars: ESP Horizon, Caparison Dellinger
Amp: Engl Fireball, SM57 on axis a la Andy
Bass: Fender JB

Recorded over the course of one week.

Here's a short teaser.

No feedback!?

 

[jhanse]

Come on guys! Need some feedback here! Mixing- and production-wise

Hey Man, gotta say, just had some other tunes on my player, and now im listening to your track, seems a bit soft volume wise.
But, i love the guitar sound, kick doesnt really fit into the mix imho, guitars could come up a bit.
Other than that, i love the overall sound!

cheers

i think it lacks i bit of power but apart form that its killer good work

 

[jhanse]

I don't think volume (or lack thereof) would be an issue... Dunno what you're listening to, but I think it's pretty hot volume-wise... Besides, mastering wasn't my work!

Thanks for the comments though! Appreciate it!

 

[barricade]

Blame the mastering guy!

 

[jhanse]

Hahaha no, I think he did a great job... I just can't imagine what -3dBFS stuff JeroenV is listening to!!

 

[JeroenV]

yeah yeah, apologies.

I think the mix's sounding great! I think the vocals get a wee-bit too reverby at times, but that's just a matter of personal tatste, I guess. The singing is top notch, but I'm not sure I dig the scream vocals, to be honest. That's obviously not a matter of mix, tho.

 

[jhanse]

Yeah, the vocalist is certainly not a screamer and it shows... But his singing is great!

Thanks for the comment!
