OPEN UP THIS PIT!

Thanks man hahaha, I totally stole the intro edit from Kapu [...]

Ha! And I of course stole it from Mick Gordons BFG Divison. Listening sub adjusted version, and have to say at least on my system the sub bomb shakes the house foundations, so you might want to back it of a bit. Mix in general sounds good, although the snare seems a bit 'nice' when it could be 'mean', but that's more dependent on taste and/or me just splitting hairs. Great work!

Thanks, I didn't want to make my snare so aggressive so that you could play it loud and not have it be too harsh sounding, plus referencing the Periphery track and Ashes of the Wake by Lamb of God revealed that in a commercial mix the snare isn't as aggressive as you think it is. Even in BFG Division the snare is actually pushed back in the mix, it's more sustain than power and the aggression comes from the kick,bass, and guitars.

On my car system (It's a factory Pioneer system with an 8" Dual Voice Coil sub in my 2011 Chevy Equinox ) the drop seemed fine but it was a tad loud and had some distortion from hitting the clipper and limiter. I made a new mix and ended up using 3 different 808s for the drops, 1 Long 808 for the intro, a short layered 808 and a mid length 808 for the transition.

Cheers,
