Hey guys! I've been recording and mixing metal for a pretty long time now, found this site, found this song which i thought was awesome, and gave mixing this a chance!
Everything seemed to be tracked extremely well, i was pleasantly surprised to see how fit all of the drum tracks were, everything seemed phase coherent to my ear.
I wasn't a huge fan of the guitar tones so i reamped the DI tracks with my 5150 through a mesa cab with an SM57 and a MD421 on the 4 rhythm tracks and the lead tracks were with an SM7 and different settings to add some separation.
Used waves plugins, i wanted to capture a very analog feel to the mix and tried to get a balance between a modern sound and the classic black metal sound(trying to achieve the best of both worlds), was a pretty straight forward mix, nothing too special, it was mixed in my headphones most of the time for a couple hours, not much reference in other places as of now.
Let me guys know what you think! if you have any questions, feel free to ask me!
