So far 30 seconds in, too much random crap at the start. Like 10 seconds of random calls is enough. Razz

The drum intro thing has a werid feel with the hat stall thingy. at 32 seconds.

Fade the song in from 34 seconds, I would.

I'm digging the groove to a point. But someone is out of tune and he's loud.
There is to much volume for the room, The drums are a little choked under all the guitars. Which is covering the voice too.

It doesn't feel as tight as it could be, maybe this is because there is too much mud and no bass.

I like it, but it doesn't feel like a live show, just sounds like one. *shrugs*

Btw, if you could critique my latest live recording I'd appreciate it massively.

I have to agree with Greener The Drums are distant and I can't hear the bass very well. Turn down the guitars.

I prefer the first mix, the drums are more defined and the mud is the only thing in the pocket with the drums.

Very noticeable when you a/b 1:30ish chorus from the first one to the 1:20ish chorus in the second one.

I like the vocals, it's powerful.

Rock on.

Okay this one works!

Dude, it's so much cleaner.
The snare strainer is cool, it goes off like a rattle when the energy of the bass comes in.

Also I really dig how you voice is hidden in it. Makes me search the mix and when you search for things you find other things which in this case are nice.
It sound live, loud and rockin'.

Rock on Razz

Much better man, only thing I would bring the main vocal up front just a bit more, maybe just 1 dB might be enough maybe even a smidgen more verb on there as well. The mix is like 100% better though, good work.
