Ok finally recorded vocals for this bastard. Opinions!

[Ola Englund]

The song is called Euthanasian Bliss and some of you might have already heard it in different clips here and there.

Check it out:

UPDATED with some of the things you guys pointed out, like deesser , some definition to the kick and backing down the vocals a bit. Check it out and let me know if it's better!

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavvvvyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy shit dude!

Really nice

I think there was too much "SSSS" in the vocals, have you de-essed them?

Apart from that, it sounds good through MySpace, the kick could use sliiiightly more definition by either a tiny tiny bit more of "click" or maybe some shaping compressor to add more attack, but it's very slightly and probably just my taste so... doesn't matter =)

 

[-J-]

cool vox!!! wish I could growl like that. nice range too, lots of different heavy vocal styles in there.

Yeah I always have a problem with the de-esser on vocals. Maybe my hearing is so bad I can't hear it. :zombie:

Sounds great. I really like the song. Vocals are also great too, they've got a mix of all kinds of vocal sounds and it sounds great. I too think the "sss" sounds in the vocals could use a de-esser. Other than that though everything sounds great.

Thanks man, I like to mix the vocal-types a bit to keep everything interesting.

BTW I'm in process of buying a Mesa Rectoverb and saw that you owned one. Happy with it?

 

[Felix Neumann]

Yeah like it a fucking lot, Ola. Very good work!

The solo....aaaargh brilliant and not too ego-like long. Congrats for that!

 

[Kazrog]

Fucking brutal, totally digging this song. Vocals fit the song perfectly, although they might be just slightly too loud. Awesome mix overall!

Yeah I'm pretty happy with the Rectoverb. It's a pretty versatile amp. It has pretty good cleans and loads of gain of course. It's also probably the tightest Recto I've ever played. The only things about it I don't like is that it doesn't have the sweet diamond plate like the solo heads, and since I have the combo version it weighs a ton. Other than that though it's great.

It's probably the combo I'm getting, thanks for the input.

 

[lilhermiejobo]

I really dig everything about this.

 

[Nebulous]

Those really low vocals are abit too loud for the mix, but other than that it's sounding great. Was this using the Engl pre for guitars?

 

[GarethSE]

That riff at 0:49 =

Heavy as fuck, vocals are far too loud though D:

 

[Nebulous]

Bump?

 

[Ola Englund]

Bump?

Ah sorry dude, missed that one, Yeah it's the 570 preamp.

 

[cobhc]

Vocals overall are way too loud, and I agree about a little more high end on the kick, the song kicks serious ass though.

 

[tagradh]

Sounds great to me.

Very Gojira. =p

UPDATED with some of the things you guys pointed out, like deesser , some definition to the kick and backing down the vocals a bit. I also changed the impulse to Recabinets Damien. Check it out and let me know if it's better!
