Hi capitan!
Here would be my main issues:
- drums are too loud
- vocals have a lot of verb (especially backing vocals) and everything else is pretty dry...doesn't mix well
- lots of frequencies competing for space.
Not a bad start though, thanks for sharing!

This is the best sound I've heard from those guitars so far! Well done on that front!
Drums are a little too in-your-face, though, and that kick doesn't have enough "thump" (though the "slap" of the drum skin does help carry it up in the mix). I'd say pull the drums down about 4 dB and apply a 4-5 dB EQ boost at 80 Hz to thicken up the kick.Sounds to me like you were playing with the lead vocal reverb throughout the song. If so, I recommend sticking with just one reverb. I thought "Some like it hard, some like it fast" at 1:07 sounded best, having that live "stadium" feel to it.
Good balance of vocals and guitars; keeps everything sounding powerful.
