CODE GRAY EPISODE 5: Adam's Song

I wanted to do a 2nd "ballad" for this series, and the one that popped in my head was this song. Travis Barker is the first drummer I was really into at first, particularly when he played for that one Aquabats album.
This one the mix came out the way it did by accident. The cymbals REALLY took the forefront, especially during the chorus. You could even say they're too loud, but when I really heard the original drums, I felt that the the cymbals were pretty loud in comparison to drums, so this is the one time I let the cymbal washing get away with being so loud.
Fun Fact: I kinda learned fading in and out to black with this one!
