Thanks lads! There's quite a few vocal tracks on this: the main vocal is three different takes, two of them pitched up an octave, and the third pitched up by 5 tones. Then there's another four tracks of little backing bits. I assume they're the parts you mean are buried? Or is it parts of the lead? Come to think of it, I didn't really do much EQing on this, so yeah, it's pretty likely the vocals are clashing with other instruments. The slippage out of tune was kind of unintentional: I recorded the vocals first before I had any melody worked out so I didn't have anything to use as a reference to stay in tune, and the other instruments (the bass and guitars first of all) were all worked out by roughly triangulating on the key of the vocals, so yeah... the tuning is likely all over the fucking place.
Thanks again for the feedback - I'll bear it in mind when I come to do the final mix.
