Very cool. This sounds like a Kiss meets the Cars, song with the guitar work... back in the good old days.
Kevin is a cool voice. So if I understand correctly.... you're singing and he's hitting the high/harmony notes? Keep working on Kevin, it is a good voice from what I have heard on the net.
Nice mix too. It's full of energy. You have the drums, especially the ride sounding good. Echos of the Cars on the vox and the 70's synth fill.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Excellent work on mixing in the synth voice. Man, there is some terrific guitar work in there. The drums are driving strong, and the whole band responds. I looked above to see what hyou used for the synth parts, and said, "Holy crap, that's a lot of guitars." Such a good mix and a very enjoyable listen, Elliott. {I stayed for another round with a Strange World.} As always, your production and mix is outstanding.

Kiss playing Stones chorus riffs with Eric Carmen singing? The vocals, yours & its, sound slightly above the mix. The synth part does give it a The Cars vibe. "ice-cream profanities" nice one.

Elliot, IMHO this is your best to date. Super vocal and vocal synth work Outstanding guitar! Loved that synth and the groove. Outstanding drums!
OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

What a cool mix Elliot. Boy do I love those drums. You have created so much space for each of the instruments. Was just a wall of sound in my studio. What an excellent rocker. Cool vocal and harmonies. Guitars were perfect and the bass "wow"

Well, SHOUT has a BIG sound and it ROCKS! Great lyric, band and performances by you and Kevin. We’re glad, however, that you kept your voice as the lead.  Among many fine lines are these: “Watch the news on the tv All I see is hate and death and war I sip my morning coffee And wonder what we do this for” Well done! J&B

Man, those guitars really work - catchy as heck retro!  Nit-picking, rayc mentioned the vocal is a bit above the mix - you've got them doubled, but it would be nice to hear a bit more reverb on them to bring them into the mix. Cool earworm.
