Hi Berney,
Great work in the voice, first of all. I agree with Hoshi about the guitars, they end up losing definition and sounding too harsh for the song. This also does not help when the clean guitars come in, since the texture is so different that the transition doesn't feel smooth (it also gives the impression of a volume change, being louder when the clean gtrs come in, which takes away punch from the distorted ones). The other thing I noticed, through my speakers the kick has an insane amount of sub-low end. It does an effect as if the kick was right on your nose and the snare so far away, probably is choking the drums and the whole mix too. Check it out and see if it helps the compressor working less.
Solid mix, all in all.
