Been a while ILF, happy to say I think this the most enjoyable forum on the internet. Hope to spend more time here and contribute what I can.
Has there been a thread for feedback on our recordings? I did a really lazy search and didn't find anything. Hoping this could be a place where people could go to get feedback on their recordings. Anyone with opinion should weigh in, I don't care if you've never listened to music in your life!
So I headed up recording my bands' EP, doing the mixing and mastering too. I need some neutral ears on this from people who aren't afraid to hurt my feelings, this is the first complete project I've taken on and I want to learn more. A lot of the issues with the songs are just that we were lazy when tracking and did not have great rooms so some stuff won't be ideal but we're not re-recording too much except maybe a vocal take or a guitar track, eventually we just have to move on and improve on the next release.
So if anyone would be so kind as to give me some feedback on this first song, I'd really appreciate it. Whether it's something more objective like phase issues or certain instruments being too loud/quiet or just subjective stuff. We're not going for the most hi-fi song and our vocalist likes lots of saturation and drive on his vocals but I'm still trying to make it sound full and with some edge to it. We're all pretty satisfied with this but I'm always looking for feedback.
