Hereby one more version were I backed off the compression on the master buss, and a little saturation on the drum group to get rid of some Essy-ness there.
On to the next track!

What I found is that I did a slight 8k shelf boost in the drum group but rolled of some in the guitar group. I gave that back some and put some air in the room tracks of the drums as well. The master buss has saturation in the form of a console emulator and I gave in a 0,5 of 'bass' end and put 0,5 db of 'treble'.
Gave both the bass and the kick 0,5db back in level. All subtile moves but somehow that feels allright.
What do you think? Does it sound better over there? Thanks, anyway!

The major problem I have with the mix however is the lack of High end, It seems like there's a big woolly blanket over the mix and it kills alot of the energy of the mix, especially in the cymbals and the guitars. Did you use any low pass filters on the the individual tracks or on the master buss? If you can't seem to find where the lack od high end is coming from try putting a broad high shelf EQ boost on the master buss in your DAW anywhere from 7-16 kHz, that will add the high end in without being too harsh and abrasive. Hope this helps.
