Please, let me know your thoughts on the mix. My ears ain't what they used to be!
I think the mix may have come out quite good...

Just bumping this up once to see if anyone could give some feedback/ suggestions...
May not be your style, but how's the mix?

This one is closer to the 70's punk I grew up with.
I really enjoyed this!
Cool bass break.

Great. Thanks fellas.
This song called for a tight, punchy mix. So I assume it has that?

I'm also not totally sold on the guitars. They are maybe a bit muddy?

SO, on first and second listen; I got it jammin in the room and totally dig it!

when the song starts it seems to my ears that the reverb on snare and the guitars ( the one chord in time with snare) are fighting each other and creating a washed out sound.

I wanna hear more ring on the bell of the ride, and maybe a little more hit on the HH?

I think the best sound mix-wise is during the scream. the guitars, cymbals, and snare all sit really well eq-wise.

I like the guitars, and agree there is always more PUNCH to add, but you seem to have a good level going for the guitars.

I know its not a real technical feedback, but hey I'm still learnin, and I think your songs jam. I love this punk authenticity that comes out. brings back Jr High back in the late 70's... I have this urge to dig out DK and jam Too Drunk to F!!!,

Thanks for the comments.
I'm not really picking up the snare reverb/ guitar issue but I am finding the snare itself is sometimes competing with guitar. I may have another look and see if I can tighten it up a bit.
Cheers

at least I heard "something" about the snare and the guitar, even if I didn't know "what"..

damn fine song sir.

I think it sounds great - I think the guitars sound good and for punk the mix is good and not sounding to clean and sterile. I like it!
