Have you ever thought of using a concert bass drum for a bigger/fuller sound? Might sound cool. Anyway, I've listened to this song about 8 times and love it. It reminds me of modest mouse, halo benders, pixies. It's great and do not redo the vocal! It makes the song!
Thanks putney41.

Well cheers, - songwriting is the only thing im good at, usually im too lazy to finish them. The last 4 years ive written about 300 songs a year which sucks because i cant remember them - so i record them rough everyday.

This song is about the average for my last fifty or so this year. Some better some worse but it is in the same vein as this new album Im doing.

I loke those bands (modest mouse and pixies inparticular) and want to keep the vocal also.

I played the song today as I was doing sidechaining and eq'ing from the suggestions here and i dont really want to change it. I will re-record it but i doubt that it will sound better once the pitch is in.

Will see though.
