something cool sounding I made with a friend

[AmirH]

Hey guys, this is a rap metal fusion my friend and I made- we went into this knowing how dismally the combination failed in the past and tried to take an unconventional approach. This is the result. Guitar is my schecter with the jazz set through a pod. The mix might need fine tuning, but we're getting close- I think I went overboard on the lo pass on rhythm gats. Anyway, constructive criticism is welcome and I hope you dudes enjoy it

Cool Ideas there bro! The ultra low-heavy tone hits it really well.
And the scream was really perfect fitting! The clean/growl duet was awesome! Worth to work on it more ,lean the guitar tone ,get a better lead tone with little more bite and body ,and give the rythm guitar some hi-q compression!
Don't loose it! I dig it!

Something sounds wrong with that lead guitar - like it's not tuned right or something and it's too high in the mix.

I actually think it's alright. I'm not a rap fan, but I can take it when done well - I mean I like the rap stuff Anthrax did. This is a bit different, and the heavier parts work pretty well, the singer is decent although he'd sound better on the rap parts if he was more aggressive.
