a very good recording dude!! the only thing I would do personally is add a bit of "crack" to the snare drum and give the kick a little "slap" by either adding some multi band compression on the highs or simply messing with the EQ so it has more attack!

vocals sound spot on though mate!

Was it all recorded in one take live? If so, awesome quality recording! For my personal preference I'd give the guitars more 'chunk', and push the solo up a bit. But that's just my taste, listening to your other stuff, the way it's mixed fits your sound. I like the music mate.

Black Sabbath tastic.
Some muffed guitar and heavier drum sound I'd have been nutting along to that one

Hi Sharklaar, very kind ta !

What you hear is one take of the tune ( drums, bass and main guitar part and a lead vox guide, vox then replaced because we do this in one room together, drum bleed in the vox mic is a problem ) then got guitarist to add two or three more tracks along with one main vox and backing vox track.

I record the rehearsals tusing a Korg D32XD with 16 recordable tracks available, usually 8 tracks for drums, stereo pair for guitar, one track each for bass and vox. Then mix as best I can in Cubase, this is something I am still learning.

That's just my preference mate, your drums sound nice but I had another song in my head while I listened to yours. I love that deep heavy rock sound as opposed to sweet sounding

Beez', your opinion is as valid as anything I can come up with, so I will 'sex' the drum sound up as an experiment, good call, ta.
