Nice one I think the vocals sound good here, not too lost in the mix at all. Great percussion, and a lovely use of distorted guitar - the washing, broad sound of the guitars is excellent. Lyrics are certainly cryptic, but even if you do decide to change them in the future, you should consider keeping most of the imagery, because it's pretty cool stuff. Nicely done. Peace. |

Very good I like the lyrics. It leaves things open for interpretation which is good. They melody is more or just as important for me and you got that here. Nice job. |

wow man you really improved this one. vocals sound really good and I don't think they're buried too much at all. the feedback lead in to the chorus is great. really like the bouncing guitar in the second verse and I still love that outro. . Awesome. If you ever revisit this I would love to hear that outro burst out into a full raging band an go on for a few more rotations, but maybe that's best saved for the live version ;) I think this is one of your best mixes so far. i love this song. Great job! |

dude this sounds unreal, so good. what were you recording with before? the vocals sound so nice and warm, everything is full and present. that guitar sound is amazing. really stellar job. i agree that you should put a real bass on this one. can't believe how great this sounds. and it's still a good song. |

Great Mix I love that I can go back to the previous version and hear the changes. They both rock, but this version rocks harder. Keep up the good work. |

Massive Another good one Eric - Great guitar as others have said - and the vocal is very cool. Sounds like an indie classic to me - The Clash-style white reggae stomp was a beautiful moment when it came in - love it! There are so many of my favourite things in this - I'd buy your album if you ever got signed!!!!!!!! More please - Phil p.s. as others have said - it needs a real bass - happy to help out if you want |

what would you hear? i hear very cool keys - love the little melody that carries the verse. other commentors are right, a wicked bass groove would sound great, something a la Peter Murphy circa 'Deep'. Like the shock of the chorus when it kicks in - the crescendoing (that a word?) lead guitar - also the way your vocals gain some attitude for the chorus. GREAT break with the chimes (only make believe)... Really like this tune - lots of nice transitions and a solid chorus. |

Enjoyed the song. I liked certain parts a lot, as well as the melody. There were a few things my taste would like to be different. The effect on the vocals in the chorus (doubling, chorus) whatever it was I didn't like so much. I think it would've sounded better if you just left your voice as is. I loved the parts where you sang "Don't worry, little girl. It's only make believe". Reassuring in a very haunting way. On the part that says "deliver us" and "In power and anxiety we trust" I think it would be nice to hear some extra emotion in your voice. Those are some emotionally loaded lines. Thanks for sharing, I'll be back for another listen I'm sure. |

This is great so glad I stopped by - I really like the space and structural change-ups. Excellent guitar playing throughout - from the little up-strokes to the overdriven power chords. I find the vocals perfectly balanced - not buried at all - and the lyrics work for me too. |

It's been said and not Really great tune, man - my crits have been covered. My praise has not - you've got a nice mix of Radiohead, Peter Gabriel and Elvis Costello going on here - intriguing listening and one to play over and over again. Interested to see where you might take it next! |

Good mix On the whole this sounds pretty good. Definitely the part starting at 1:15 sounds very cohesive. I see a bit of a problem with that celesta and the rhodes in the beginning. The celesta is definitely too far forward in the mix, but those clear sounds don't seem to gel with the distorted guitars. Where you mix it into the chorus at the end doesn't work for me. I'm not sure how you would make it work. Maybe those sounds are simply not meant to go together. A grand piano would probably be a sound that is more idiomatic for the rock genre. Btw, what are the squeaky sounds at 0:49 and further? A cheap drum stool? It's probably something legitimate, but it doesn't work very well here. In my latest track I had a guitar loop somewhere, and a couple hours of mixing later I was thinking "what on earth is that annoying sound". Turns out that, buried in the mix, only a couple of stray notes remain from an otherwise fine guitar lick. And out it goes. |
sounds great and i really like the transitions and mix.
vocals sound right here. itunes is deceiving on play backs. I always listen to my songs through quicktime to get a true sound before I post a tune.
