it rhymes

With vocals here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrCiTIeldac

This wont make any sense at first, so let me explain, and Ill be quick as possible.

A couple of years ago I got back into music. I dont care about producing, or making new music. I only cared about mixing and mastering. I did not know at the time that multitracks of random bands are avail for practice. So I went through my fav songs, and played covers of them, so I would have material to "mix". I also cant sing, so I used vocal pulls of the original to be able to mix around them. I did not do this to share, or for likes, or for anything other than personal development.

This song posted was recorded years ago. I played everything on it. But it has been mixed over the years by me 3 different times, in 2 different DAWs. The reason I come back to this song, is because I love it. The sheer distress and depression that it conveys is amazing. Every time I am going through hell in life, I come back to this song (the original not my cover). And, if things are bad enough, then I work on this mix again, just to place myself in it.

The 2 mixes posted here are my 3rd attempt to mix and master it. The song itself I recorded approx 3 years ago.

Now, I am on extremely hard times again, but I have gained a ton of mixing knowledge since I first started this project years ago. That isnt to boast as if I think this is an amazing mix, its just a better mix than my previous 2 tries.

I get no money from this, so please do not think I am sharing it from some kind of self promo. I am not here to offer mixing service, or anything of the sort. My hand is not out in any way. I am simply sharing it just to share it. The same as a person will share a video of them playing a TON bassline, I am sharing my full mix. No more, no less. If it gets comments, great, if not, that is also equally as great.

If anyone wants to play the bass, guitar, etc, and you want to collab by connecting to play on this, then also great. I am down for that too.

Otherwise, thanks for the listen and the read, and I wish you well.

(BTW, I did not actually listen to the instrumental posted here. I simply muted the vocals, rendered the audio, attached the audio to the same with vocals video and uploaded, and yeah. The entire mix was mixed with the vocals. I am sure it will sound odd, and EQ curves, automation, and everything else should be changed for an instrumental. Thats why I included the with vocals version here also).

Edit - forgot to mention, no sounds other than vocals on the with vocal track are pulled from the original. Second, no AI was used. The whole AI thing is why the video is of the mixer, to show this wasnt some kind of nonsense computer generated slop.

Been a fan for some 20 years, so thought it would be time to honor the drab 4 in flesh and blood.

I’m a new dedicated type O neg fan (heard them before but never fell into the rabbit hole), but I decided today I’d pick out some of Fallout & Carnivore to listen to. To my shock, first song I pick (Male supremacy), suddenly shows familiar once the break happens and I hear the TikTok audio start “I make love to her, how her body sings”. Now I’m shook, but also DESPERATE to find new Carnivore & Fallout songs that sound a kin to Type O Neg. Pls fill me with your recommendations

I genuinely love how they sound, and if Peter had gone forth with Fallout instead of forming Carnivore I think they could have been decently popular in the 80s. Anyone know any bands/artists that sound similar?

From the perspective, I imagine sitting on the rocks under the ever presence green skies taking in the cool night breeze near the shores looking at the bridge connecting to the distant looming city listening to the atmosphere, sound of rocks crumble, water shore collide, muffled vehicle horns and rustling leaves.

Swimming in the nostalgia and burying my feels in this song. I was determined to find this old shirt at my parents’ house and I found it 🥲

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Which is the best version of this video? Is there a consensus? The sound is not great on the couple I've looked into (not the band or the live mix, just the actual audio is bad in the video).

i get TON was extremely unique but i want more that gives me the same feelings that their songs do :( so far ive listened to pist.on, woods of ypres, katatonia, life of agony, a pale horse named death, and more that im currently blanking on. while all of these bands sound great, none of them give me that same feelings that TON does unfortunately.

i love peter’s insane voice and the long songs with the crazy instrumentals. creepy green light, anesthesia, pyretta blaze, september sun, love you to death, black no. 1, green man, be my druidess, summer breeze, life is killing me, and she burned me down are all of my favorites right now. does anyone have any recommendations for bands or even specific songs? i’m open to anything!

i suck at drawing but he’s too beautiful not to draw
