Nice sounding mix Big Grin !
I like to hear a touch more top end rattle on the snare cut through a little more just personal taste.
Top job Wink !

Snare sounds ok here,the kick needs a sweep i think its resonating a bit to my ears.
Well done,bass could be a tad loud

Thanks for the input guys. Here's another version with some work on the kick and snare.

I listened the last version (2). Sounds good and weird in a good sense. I like the almost mono feel of this version.

Kick and snare make a nice pair. I wasn't sure if like the drum space or not, but after couple of listenings I think it creates a very special sound. So I like it.

Main vocal (or melodic speaker) drops around 1.15

Delay in vocals disturb me a little bit. It messes the pronunciation of words here and there.

Thanks for listening and giving valuable input, Olli. I agree with your evaluation and here is my attempt at implementing it.

Brave and bold and weird. I like it, although this version won't be chosen as a record version .

Maybe something should be done to those f- and s- sounds. Now the singers splutter too much, and it's not good for their credibility and rock image. Listen from 0:17 onwards. I'm afraid that de-esser wont help with that in right way. Maybe low-pass filter around 6K with 24db q-value. It may work or it may spoil the whole thing.

Nice mix overall.I would bring down some of the muddiness and bring the solo guitar up a bit and wide to have some wider stereo image.
Keep up bmullen,nice.
