Crocodile

Generally, I think the snare is a little dominant and may need a slight level adjustment, and/or an EQ reduction in harsh mid range frequencies (Justin Morey)

​

Vocals vs drums again. Vocals a little thin sounding – consider double tracking if you can or processing to add body.

Ending really solid but first word of return of vocal a little ‘wimpy’ (Michael Ward)

Play Through The Pain

 I think this also goes for the toms in Play Through The Pain. Also, in that track the telephone EQ voice needs to lose some harshness, but you may need to push its level after. (Justin Morey)

​

Consider cutting a little somewhere near 110 Hz on your drum mix or across the whole mix. It sounds a little sludgy.

Some of the vocal get a little lost at times. Some automation might help. (Michael Ward)

​

Pre chorus vocals need balancing, harmonies up 

Third chorus, the word "pain" seems out of place (Cam Speirs)

​

EQ cymbals to give some life 

Make the bass guitar more percussive and audible (Tim Hammond

Apathy

Conversely, the rhythm guitar parts are maybe lacking a bit of bite, especially in the choruses, where they should be the driving force of the track more than they are currently. I think this applies to all 4 tracks, but I would say Apathy is the best balanced at this stage. (Justin Morey)

​

I’m more of an engineer than producer, but the exposed vocal without anything else isn’t working for me. Simple sustained guitar note or pad sound behind the vocal could help.

110Hz, but less so here.

Lift vox in chorus. Too quiet for me. (Michael Ward)

Eyes In The Back Of my Head

Bounced -3dB which is appropriate for sending for mastering, but is quieter than above track.

Again somewhere neat 110Hz.

Again vocal and drums fighting for space. Automation can help lift the vocals at the right time.

Check your end track marker. (Michael Ward)

 said that the toms get drowned out by all the guitars (Haydn Clements)
