I've tried to recover my failed last week submission, yet another hastily rendered 80% assembled one.
But paints the picture
I will likely touch upon it a little bit in the upcoming days, though I'm already a bit afraid of it.

This week I went down with the cold so I didn't touch anything and took some break sipping ginger tea and reading visual novels big_smile

Getting back on track starting tomorrow

Nice mastering, I see the evolution since last week. Also I like the fast bass parts and then the bass alone at the end. Adds a good vibe to it big_smile

Keep it up, the efforts are paying off

I think you could benefit most from some work on mix. The main guitar is overwhelming, even drums or secondary guitar. It's easy for me to say, doing that is way different. Drums, bass, guitars (and vocal) is something I did once or twice and is still a mystery for me tbh. One thing I learned over the years is that distorted guitar takes a lot of high frequencies.

Having said all that - cool submission, solid track big_smile

Thanks! Yeah, that's true
There is also a genre-specific thing in that I was aiming for a guitar sound that would be closer to the white noise. I think something like what starts from 2:00.

I also need to return to the practice of listening on speakers when mixing, not studio monitors, but I think it helps by giving a better space/scene representation than headphones
