spent and hour and a half recording it and about 30 mixing it. i think i got much better sounds this time around than with the rainbow cover i did before. drums actually sound kinda like drums this time!
also, i'd like to point out i'm using a single kick pedal on this.
thoughts? some a you recording dudes got any pointers?

Needs MOAR BASS geetar!!!
I do dig the guitar tones, tho
Vox are good, too, but did you have to take a cough break between lines? Can't help you with the drums, 'cause I'm totally in the dark with them.
Great material - keep it coming. How 'bout some of the obscure Sabbath stuff?

Dude! Sounding much better. I think the bass could probably come up a touch, and use a little more low end in it, but this is a huge improvement over the Rainbow deal. Keep at it, man. You're definitely getting better at this.

listening to it on my laptop and the bass isn't as prominent as it is on my other computer.
i'm surprised that the drums turned out as well as they did honestly. they don't sound awesome or anything, but i think they sound pretty cool for only using one mic.

Re: did this tonight, metallica content
Great song, great playing as usual. Just in the time I've known you on this forum, you have made obvious strides in playing the drums as well as recording.
