Shemson: My First Single

Shemson 04.24.16	Any feedback is welcome, if you don't like metal though chances are you won't like it.
AlexKzillion 04.24.16	Dope track. Screams are just a little too loud in the mix for my taste though. Based off the description I'm guessing you did everything yourself?
Spacesh1p 04.24.16	Cool man looking forward to checking this since I've been hyped since the hype thread.
Shemson 04.24.16	Thanks man! Yeah I wrote, recorded and performed everything. Had some help from an excellent producer friend with mixing and post production though, he really brought my demos to life. Thanks for the feedback too man, still time to tweak the rest of the album if need be before release so little mixing difference could be made!
Sevengill 04.24.16	holy shit Blood Mountain and FMTS? did you write this just for me? will check asap
Sevengill 04.24.16	album title makes me squint but the track really gets some momentum around 3 minutes. I enjoyed that. when's the full album going to drop?
Shemson 04.24.16	Haha well I hope you like it... Worried I'm giving myself too hard a job with those influences!
Sevengill 04.24.16	oh right, 4-6 weeks. like a broken arm.
Shemson 04.24.16	Awesome, thanks Sevengill! I'm planning on releasing another single in a couple of weeks and then the full album probably a couple of weeks later so should be out in a month or so. Will be sure to whore it out here too. This is one of the lighter tracks on the album so if you're digging Gojira/Mastodon style stuff there should be plenty for you to enjoy!
p4p 04.24.16	this doesn't sound like all of the album that you listed except maybe COD. the doom/gothic influence is pretty clear.
Shemson 04.24.16	Fair enough man, I think the beginning has Tool influences, followed by a Mastodon type section and then Gojira style heavier bits. Thanks for listening either way, to be honest I don't write music trying to sound like any particular bands so it's probably good there's not obvious vibes!
50iL 04.25.16	I liked it. However, I agree with Alex; the screams are too loud in the mix. Keep going!
CaimanJesus 04.25.16	Not bad
Shemson 04.25.16	Thanks for the feedback guys, think I will end up making a couple of tweaks on the vocals before the full album comes out!
Spacesh1p 04.25.16	Agree will all the comments so far. To me, the production feels a bit...compressed too? Like I don't feel like the full space of my headphones is being utilized if that makes sense. Feels narrow. I dunno how to describe what I mean thus word shotgun approach. Music is cool though.
Shemson 04.26.16	Thanks for all the feedback guys, I really appreciate getting some extra ears on it! I made a few tweaks to the track and re-uploaded it in the same place. Hopefully it'll sound a little better now!
