Mixwise, this is very good - I don't think I could fault it... Very pro, slick & commercial. Artistically & songwise, this stuff just leaves me cold. Call me an old fart, "Modern Rock" seems to be a euphemism for heavy, plastic pop with no soul.... sorry, I digress in a rant... I can't deny it, this is extremely well done in all respects.

In my solemn opinion, to me, this guy is amazing at what he does as far as his engineering, producing, and etc.
Me being the curious guy that I am would like to know what you guys think of his mixes.

I like the song. Sounds pretty fresh compared to most rock these days.

The vocals are very good. The guys got a great voice. I think hes used a plugin on the
vox to add that kind of extra smoothness. Don't know what its called and I can't
do this myself
Does sound modern. Its a very loud and compressed mix, a little too compressed for me.
Don't forget that they compress things again on radio.
I think its a great arrangement. Love the little touches here and there like the
synth bits in the background at 0:43, and the backing vocals at 2:15. So there is a lot
of attention to detail.
However, it sounds like pop and not rock as it doesn't sound like a real band to me.
The drums sound like addictive drums or something and the programming is very simple.
The benefit of this is that its perfectly recorded, quick and in perfect time.
The guitar sounds like a guitar sim like a line6 and not a real amp miked up, but the playing is fine. I like the jaunty keyboard line, the keyboard sounds a bit like my
Roland JV2080. I suspect the bass line is played on the keyboard too.
Generally though, really excellent work especially with regard to the arrangement.
What market is the music aimed at?

and the bass guitar is real bass guitar
