Hey everyone, wasn't sure what area to post this in. I think there must be lots of music people here.
I am currently slowly in the works on an album where the intention is to kind of do a stripped down Catholics feel, especially the first Catholics album: a rhythm guitar on one side of the stereo and a lead guitar on the other, with bass drums and vocals basically centered. When I hear that Catholics album it sounds so alive.
I guess my problem is I tried this with what I had and I have no idea why but it's just not working. Like it's all smushing together rather than each part sounding distinct. It's kind of hard to explain.
Here's a private soundcloud link to a preliminary rough mix (can't emphasize enough how rough this is.) Also, these are SCRATCH vocals, not the final vocals. I currently can't sing cause of throat problems that I am hoping will get better.

Anyone have any advice? How can I further separate the instruments? I keep listening to the Frank songs back and forth with my song and I just can't figure out what he's doing differently. I know his guitars are bigger and more distorted sounding, is that it? |
