Indeed sounds thicc

Two things I wish:
One: that the track were mastered -- although it looks some compression may have been applied to the track based on overall waveform. If this is the case tbh I would throw it in Audacity and hit amplify and this is a quick fix for quiet waveform.

Two, the snare were more audible

Overall great groove and intonation on your playing. Love the chugs.

Also love the clunky bass tone. Sexy. I can't tell if it's been chorused but if so, I would bring the freqs below 180 or so hz on the bass into mono and emphasize some of the mids. Also, it sounds like you're quad tracking -- are you panning all the guitars hard left and hard right or no? If yes, try bringing them in a bit more. I'm feeling a weak center in the mix. Though perhaps some of that is the drums lacking presence. The snare in particular, I can only really hear the bottom rattle and the transients for a hair of a second.

Kick drum is also a bit out front relative to the rest of the kit. Cymbals are at about appropriate volume.

I also think for NG you could make a version which properly loops, or just punch in a final stinger note here and not loop the track.

I'm stoked to hear what else you come up with. Seriously great grooving.

76/100

Thanks! And really great feedback!

I struggle with mastering and drums quite a bit, so it's good to get some specific notes on what seems to be lacking and how, appreciate it!

Indeed, I am quad tracking, at least I think lol not very good with technical terms.
But I layer two rhythms hard left/right and layer two leads just slightly left/right, generally speaking.

Oh and one last note, it isn't supposed to loop, I just thought it sounded good to go back and conclude with the opening.

Damn that sound is THICK!!!! Love it!
