Burning bridges
#3
After listening to your mix for 20 seconds there wasn't a lot of things i had to say other then the things I allready wrote several times:

- read the faq for this song, listen to the original tracks, set a realistic mix goal and make the right mix decisions
- don't try to radically change the sound of the band - especially if you are kinda new to the mixing game. If the band gives you a reference mix, see if the recorded tracks can be pushed in that direction (which is clearly the case for this song - just read the faq)
- don't use EQ/compression if you don't have a clear goal and vision how this song should sound. use the reference song to check if you are still on track
- reverb is cool, but too much reverb is... well, uncool
- Volume automation is mixing in its purest form. start riding faders with automation and make smart pan decisions for every track. only use eq and compression to take care of the rest.
- the original bass sound is very consistent and works great in combination with the rhythm guitars and the kick. all you have to do is to ride the fader.
