I like the guitar sounds. A few 80's thrash influences shining through, the double-tracked vocals adds to the intensity and hostility in the vocalist's voice. The drummer seems unsettled, and it could be said that his enthusiasm makes up for his lack of control.
Arrangement wise, the song works really well. It never loses momentum with a quiet, chorusy guitar interlude, which in my opinion ruins this type of genre.
I like the 'life in vein/veins of life' lyrics.
It has the potential to sound huge if the bass and guitars were more at the forefront, and if it was mastered. |

First off...cool drummer.
Yep, the song has major potential there, but still a few creases to iron out.
1/ The bass need to be brought to the fore a little more, to add a little kick to the drummer, or to kick the drummer depending on how pissed the bassist is.
2/Try and let the guiatrs sit back a little, nothing wrong with havin' 'em blastin', but bringing it a little more level with add a little bit of tour de force during breaks.
3/ Nothing wrong with the vocals, as far to say...man, you're angry.
All in all it's just the recording and balance. Good luck. |
