My take on Purgatory  Big Grin
I think you've done a great job of taming the harshness of the hats/cymbals while still retaining the shimmer. Possibly they've been left a touch delicate but definitely an improvement over how they were. The rest of the drums are tight and powerful. From the small amount of songs from this genre I've heard I got the impression that the 'convention' is to be quite heavy with the reverb and push them back in the mix but for my ear I prefer what you have done (which, unsurprisingly is how I treated them in my mix).
I see you have used the extra space by having no vocals to spread the guitars out and they all seem to have their place in the mix to co-exist without fighting for their place in the soundstage.

Great mix overall.
