Hi Zog,
Overall, I like the general mix balance you have achieved here. I like your work on the guitars, good separation and width. They could possibly benefit from a little more grit around the 3khz region, but that's just my preference. The drums need some work and I do agree with Blitzzz comments. To me, the drums sound a bit like they have a blanket covering them and in some parts of the song, drum parts are suffering from what appears to be some frequency masking. You could rout the toms to an aux/group buss to work on their balance and frequency content to allow them to sit better in the mix. The kick and snare could benefit from some parallel compression, the hihat/cymbals sound fine to me. Good luck and happy mixing
Cheers,
Mick
