New Rustmouth tune for your listening pleasure

[Hapexamendios]

OK, here's a new one we've had completed for a month or so. I can't quite seem to get the fizziness out of the guitars....arghh. I apparently am really stupid when it comes to EQing. I like the song, I'm just not sure I'm crazy about the tone. Any thoughts on how to improve? I'm an idiot so please bear with me. ;-)

BTW, the song is called Lunacy. Thanks for any critiques....I think the drums could be stronger as well...they seem a tad repetitive...anyway throw in your $.02

[KeithRT99]

nevermind i found it in your sig

[Hapexamendios]

Sorry about that...the link is there now. Any advice on how to clear that up?

 

[KeithRT99]

maybe a lpf at around 12k-ish

+1. And if it still doesn't clean up as much as you like, try to find where the fizz is using a notch filter and bring it down enough so that the guitars can go up a bit in the mix. Other than that it sounds fine I guess.

OK, I've varied the drums a bit. Man, they were quite robotic before...

Also, I've played with the guitars and have removed a bit of the fizziness...hmmm...what's everyone think now? The tune has been updated btw so you won't be able to a/b it.

Again, the tune is called Lunacy.

Thanks!

i think it sounds better, but the distortion is really buzzsaw-ish what did you use to record them.

POD XT, in which I've gotten decent tones in the past, for some reason this one is just really buzzy.

I think it sounds great like all your other tunes!

Sure there's the fizz we all know by now.. that's the POD for ya...

But i like the kick the most.. fits in nice with the low end of the mix.. nice!

Are there going to be vocals on these songs soon?

I hope so, dude. We have lyrics for Lunacy at least!!! I'm just trying to figure out if I want to sing it (and possibly suck at it!) or find someone else who is much more polished than me to do it.

BTW, of course, the kick is Andy's. BTW, really digging the new TGM tune! You rule, as always! Later
