New song from my band - The Approaching Storm

[Sam Bottner]

Hey guys, this is pretty much a tracking mix as I haven't really referenced on anything besides my computer speakers so feel free to be harsh with your criticism. Guitars are Revalver, bass is Juicy77, drums are samples from all over. I'm geeting the guitars reamped with a 6505+ right now so I'll edit this post when I get those in the mix. Anyways, let me know what you think of the song and the mix. Thanks.

Gotta give this a swing when i get to home! It's nice that you have something fresh going!

I think the bass is messing around a lot on the center. And it's all because of that juicy77 . For this kind of music more epic snare would be great! Guitar sound is good allthough i get a little odd vibes of the doubled guitar tracks (is there ones? cuz it sounds like heavy dist and low dist comb) Might just be an line volume automation also. Sounded good though! I'd suggest to try more drastic moves on drums! AND change the juicy77 so you'll get more thicker bass. But definetly good sound on my monitors!

Thanks for the comment man. I don't really get you though on the bass... too much mids or what?
