Admittedly the mix is over the top. But the energy of the track just swept me and my mix away. Great work all around on this song by all involved.

Some interesting ideas, for instance the megaphone shoutin voice, the very dry choruses.
A few things stick out and distract me though, The hihat for one is very loud, maybe you have a big boost eq in hiend ? if so lowering that may balance it better. The snare could have little more meat (loend)
The answering guitar ( the one playing intro) drowns a bit when it reappears later in song.
I think what youve done is boosting many things to great lvl and clarity and left some (the guitar mentioned for one) at more natural lvl, thus makin a mix focused and very clear in hihat, voice and bv department and thus makin some other elements small.
I like the interesting arrangement things youve done, megaphone, dry choruses, and looking into either helpin some elements less or helpin all elements more equal would balance things for me.
Thank you for the interestin listen

Thanks for the listen .
This was a straight pass. Probably a little automation would make us both happier with the mix. I didn't realize that the snare was on the thin side until you mentioned it, that will change. The hi-hats I think were carried over and there is some bleeding going on there.

I really appreciate your taking the time for the critical listen. Much thanks.

Just another thought: If the snare track contains a lot o bleed from the hihat its possible to deess it with a frequency chosen to fit the hat,, sidechaiend from the hihat track, so you better can control the hat.

Excellent idea. Thanks.

Im just the one passin it on, wish the idea were mine though

Mostly it sounds like an Actual Song - that's a Big Win

I cant comment on the splash or ride they do SEEM loud( Serious 9_10K) but Im on a craptop with the worlds worst speakers

A compressor is squashing the Bridge and refrain
a lil automation would dial this mix right in

+1 on the megaphone

Peace;
