Bilmuri’s “BETTER HELL (Thick boi)” is a genre-bending masterclass that fuses metalcore riffage with glossy pop hooks and subtle country textures—and it hits harder than it has any right to. Pulled from the chaotic and irresistible *AMERICAN MOTOR SPORTS* LP, this track showcases everything fans love about Bilmuri: wild genre mashups, emotionally raw vocal work, and hyper-detailed production that pushes DAWs and mixers to their limits. On this Nail The Mix session, engineer and mixer Will Carlson (known for his work with The Devil Wears Prada, Dayseeker, and Attack Attack!) walks you through his mix process, digging deep into a track that’s deceptively complex and sonically aggressive without ever losing clarity.
Expect serious production depth here. The multitracks demand precise handling of dense vocal layers, midrange-heavy guitars, saturated low end, and glitchy industrial elements. If you’re looking to get hands-on with aggressive parallel chains, nuanced widening techniques for stacked harmony vocals, and subtle automation moves that keep the chaotic energy controlled but punchy, this session delivers. Carlson shares how he balanced the tonal shifts between overdriven guitars and pristine cleaned-up vocals, detailing the harmonic processing chains and transient shaping he used to keep the lows defined and the highs impactful.
Download the multitracks and mix “BETTER HELL (Thick boi)” yourself to get inside a modern hybrid production style that doesn’t follow genre rules. This one will challenge your instincts, sharpen your workflow, and push your mix approach in fresh directions.
