Dude very nice!!!! I think the music part is mixed very well. That vocal needs some presence to it, its getting buried by everything else. Very good singer, very color morale/johnny craig type vocal riffs.

I think you have the music pretty much nailed, the screams and vocals needs a little more balls and presences.

Any track on the new color morale album would be a great reference track for you.


what amp did you use for this?

Can you explain your vocal chain going in and then what post processing plugins you have on them?

What type of mic did you record with?

Did you run through a mic pre, or just your interface pre's
 
thanks guys!

yeah i know the vocals need more work. i knew that before i posted this. this is my first master, but i just wanted to see if i was headed in the right direction so far
 
Screams need to be dropped lower, cleans could be slightly higher. Liking the Jonny Craig styled singing vocals - perhaps you should consider him having the lead vocalist over the screamer. No offense, but its not the greatest screaming I've heard. Perhaps some more processing could fix it up.

The instrumentals are excellently done though. Drum tone/guitar tone? Guessing it'll be the usual but I might as well ask :p

Very good mix... definitely bring the cleans out front a little more via eq.... maybe a little more Desser on the bridge clean...

and guitar stutters are insanely genius...

Would love to know what the guitar tone was... and drums were slate?
 
guitar tone custom tone created for this band mesa mod/ joey sturgis detuned snare and toms slate kick
Thanks for all the feedback
