It sounds good . . . but disappointed it's just another Lynch EP. I don't think anything can come close to Wicked Sensation, but I sometimes forget that album is 22 years old now.
Smoke and Mirrors wasn't bad at all - but Sound Mountain Sessions may be a better album.
I agree that the guitars are a little low in the mix, and this has been fairly consistent with Lynch's last few albums. Just seems a bit dead in the guitars, underpowered for lack of a better expression. I would honestly like to hear an album with Lynch using nothing but his sig gear.
This was produced by a friend of mine Chris Collier at the same studio that I just finished tracking an 11 song album at. He's a busy guy, I gotta wait for him to finish mixing another record before he can do mine (he mixed and mastered the Lynch Mob stuff too). Their gear was up there when I was tracking etc. so I know exactly what they had up there Chris is also going to be doing some gigs on drums for them too. I think it sounds great. I even got to use one of George's mic pre's for my vox
