Recorded some drum tracks yesterday.

[TTTSNB]

...and here they are. It's my black metal band, but I still try to have some element of musicianship, haha. Choose the last two songs, and yes the song titles are temporary.

"In darkness i pray" wasnt bad, i thought the guitar had too much distortion tho, it was hard to like hear everything else lol.i guess i just dont like this type of metal tho.

[crazyguy832]

Crazy distortion and quiet drums = blehrgrghrghr

Little room for creativity.

I didn't mix it. :( My singer is well...less experienced with that sort of thing then me.

[Retarded Chipple]

Guitar kinda drowns everything else out. Needs to be re-mixed me thinks.

Don't really know what to say about the music. Its been done many a time before...

[drummguy731]

Well.....I don't like it. The drums were, well, ok, I really couldn't hear them.

[TTTSNB]

^ I know, we want to remix it. Damn singer mixing everything.

[drummguy731]

:lol: From what it sounds like, he doesn't know anything. Hopefully with more drums it'll sound more evened out.

[TTTSNB]

^ haha, I'm gonna get him to send it to me, then I'll just change the levels on everything.

[Fuzzy]

Too much reverb!

[TTTSNB]

^ it's tr00. :D If you can hear the drums, tell me what you think.

[-TGP-]

Meh...

[crazyguy832]

I can't hear the drums well enough...

I know you play pretty well, but your playing sounds like crap in those recordings.

Oh, alright, I guess the drum sounds do it. I have a video of it too, sounds quite a bit better.

[Sponer]

No offence, but my band recorded our songs with everyone playing and using a small built-in laptop mic, and it sounds better than that... when you re-mix everything, be sure to bump this thread or something so I can get a better listen then. :)

The drumming sounds good from what I could hear though. I'm not really into black metal too much. I'm more of a death metal guy. :)

[Chippy569]

where are the drums?

Well some of the production, like the guitar tone for instance, is pretty much intentional. It's really only the drums and bass that don't work right. Oh, and might I add that I didn't actually mix any of this..my singer did it, and he doesn't know much about recording to say the least.

[TTTSNB]

Try the last two tracks.

[Chippy569]

oh i know, i listened to them.

[keaton_86]

I can hear the drums fine. Get some decent speakers everyone.

Drummings pretty tight. Very nice work man. Don't love the music, but yeah, awesome drumming.

[Chippy569]

oh i have decent speakers. the drums are soooooooo far back in the mix, i can't even really hear a snare, nor any hats or anything like that. The guitar is too bright, and, in the 3rd listed song anyway, the singer's reverb (delay actually) is so annoyingly high i don't understand what he's saying (which, really, is probably ok)

Thanks man, I tried, haha. I think the first "blasting" section could be a little tighter, but it's hard to play along to something when their own tempo changes, haha.

Yeah, the only time the snare is clearly audible is whenever I have the time to do loud rimshots, even then it isn't loud enough. Well they record at my house now, so I casually turned the overheads and snare up, hah. :)

[CasB]

The overheads sound really harsh...

[The Philosopher]

Not much creativity in the drumming, but thats black metal for ya. I liked it, anyways.
