I loved it too !
Like everyone says, the first "new" mix you posted was great except for the snare, but you got that fixed with the revised version.
I love the vocals you guys added to that song.

Matt - sounds good, but have to agree about the snare... though the second clip is much closer to what you need IMO.
I think my favorite snare tones of yours are the mixes you did for "Lost at Sea" and "WDS". Definitely have a snap, but have body as well.
Otherwise - glad you're working on the album man!

Um, okay, I listened on my monitors and that snare sounded completely different through my Sony MDR-7506 headphones, I swear. Here's a mix I just did with my Alesis M1 monitors at very low volume. I think many of you will find the artificial snap of the snare to be gone.............I hope.

LOL. Probably. I should have probably listened on the headphones too to see how it sounded first before I posted. Everything sounds pretty balanced and on my loudspeakers, though.

Sounds fuckin awesome. Any chance you could give some details on the bass? It sounds huge and blended perfectly

Too bad I haven't released anything new yet, it would be fun to be able to throw that gearbox of yours away
I concur!
Thanks!
Nice! I'm glad I got people's input on this.
Thanks a lot. Chain is Fender P-Bass, Dimarzio Split P Pickup, 2 instances of Gearbox, one for full spectrum clean bass, and one for distorted bass with low and high pass filters at 3500Hz and 1000Hz respectively.
THIS ROCKS. As a matter of personal preference, I still slightly prefer the snare from February, but still, this new mix sounds fucking stellar. And if you got as close as you did before with the 7506s, you are a far better man than I. I wish my mixes sounded half this good. NEED MORE!

Ok, I think I'm done here. I turned up the bass a bit for some more balls, opened up the attack on the bus compressor, and voila, I'm digging this! I hope you gents concur.
Finished mix...........for now

That's not finished... there's about 3 minutes missing! Upload the rest so we can make a proper judgment.

Sounds pretty damn good. Couple things
The guitars/bass could use some tightening at 1:16, the bass is clicking and popping just before the kick/guitar.
The guitars have an amazingly tight lowend.. but the guitars as a whole are too dry/tight. The drums are roomy, the vocals have a lot of delay, the bass blends really nicely but the rhythm guitars seem quite separated. Perhaps a touch of delay? Not usual for rhythm guitars but this isn't exactly straight metal.

^ Agree. I also think some of the layers behind the vocal in the first verse could come down a bit - some of the words are getting a bit smeared on my side. Maybe also a tit hair louder with the snare too, but that's just me.
