I just listened to Doomsday whatever on the stereo and I even ran out to the car to make sure what I was hearing was right. The mix is kind of shitty. IMHO I've done better mixes and my mixes are usually shit. The snare seemed especially craptastic. It seemed to go from a reverby playing in the corner of a warehouse sound to right in your face and not in a good way. It wasn't like part of the song the snare was one way and part it was another it was like every 3rd hit. IDK, after getting into recording it's hard to listen to stuff and not break it down like that so maybe I'm just looking too deep into it. Definately not what I was expecting from a fairly decent band.
