Hi all,
I tried to make this song sound as if it was the love child of The Ramones and Tower Of Power
I took the liberty to re-arrange the guitars' rythmic pattern in the verses to add some more variety to this (mostly) one-chord song, and because the verses sounded too cluttered for my taste.
Nice full sounding mix Erick, Great drum sound... very dominating and strong.
I like your chopped up guitar work, although maybe a little bit overdone for my ears. I love the effect it has at the start of the verses, but starts to sound a little like it's missing in action by the end of the verses, if that makes sense. I still think it was an exercise well worth exploring, so for that, well done.
Hi Dave,
Thank you for listening and leaving a comment.
I had the same feeling about something missing in some parts of the verses. I will try un-muting the guitars when the brass section is not playing.

Hi Cudjoe,
Yes, I will reassess the muting of the guitars in my next version. As for the snare, I'll try your suggestion, but I'm generally found of tight snare sounds !
Cheers for the comment.
SOunds great to me, well balanced, everything in right place. GOod energy.
I wonder if the overall sound is a bit too bright. Symbals come throught pretty loud. If you can dial in some warmness little bit more, that might be a nice finish.
