Dark Ride - Dead Enemies
#2
You need to fix the "Dead Enemies"-whisper at 1:39. It sounds awful and it destroys the flow of the song if you use it like a regular vocal part. It wasn't meant to be used like that so you should change it really drastically or delete it.

The story behind it: When I started mixing Dead Enemies there was a small pause after verse 1 that led into the first chorus but the chorus was very boring so I decided to throw it away. With the chorus gone I needed some sort of transition from verse 1 to verse 2 to keep the flow. So I took the "Dead Enemies"-phrase from the last part of the song and turned it into some sort of creepy background whisper - and it worked. check the example if you wanna hear it for yourself.

That's why you can't use it without changing it into some sort of fx - it wasn't there in the first place and it's only there to make the pause between verse 1 and 2 more interesting.

The mix itself is okay - did you cut some mids from the guitars? they sound somewhat thin right now. they could be also more "in your face".
