Stert:
Was the intro really 54 seconds? You gotta cut that down, I thought I was listening to an instrumental. Great vocals. and especially loved the "jet black" underchorus repeats, or whatever one should call them. Liked the bass at 3:08, and the voices coming in at 3:22. Actually enjoyed this very much.

Hey! Great sound!

IMO, I feel like the overall drum buss is way over compressed. It sounds like its really crushing the cymbals since they are so far ahead in the mix. Sounds like you can hear the compressor working. Its just my opinion though :) Great guitar sound btw! Good luck with everything!

Man I love this, the bass tone is terrific! I think it sounds great as it is, but if you're gonna record it again maybe you could get a second "room" mic on the guitars to create some space and experiment with a delay on the vocals . . . maybe experiment with a delay panned to one channel. that would keep things sorta dry but add some space on the vocals. I agree with Ethan that you should try to create some space without resorting reverb . . . that would kill the track imo.

I can't imagine why you would get 6's across the board for this.
