Started recording our second album for Coraxo. :)

It's a bit rough, only spent a couple hours on it so far:

Thanks man! I think I spent 5 hours on the snare sound and 2 on the rest of the mix yesterday. :D

Thanks! An album per year is the goal. :D Probably won't happen but we'll see.

edit: new mix again. Just widened the leads at the end a bit.

Sounds dope as hell man. I dig it. I'm usually impressed by Kemper recorded tones.

Thanks man. Just updated the mix before you posted.

Is the low end too much on the drums? I was listening to this in my car and comparing it to Strapping Young Lads SYL, this had tons more thump in the lows. :lol:

Nice tones and riffage! Sounds a little less abrasive (more melodic) than the last round of stuff. Still heavy though!

Thanks! It's my rackmount Dual Rec, boosted with a Maxon OD9 Kemper'ified.

Yeah that's the goal, more melodic and mellow for the whole album. We'll fit a bit more saxophone in there this time too. :)

Bump-o. High passed the drums at 50Hz since I there was just too much boom going on. Too much thump in the lows?
