Yeah, one tip I was given myself (thanks Dave aka Metallurgist) is that if you've got low / low-mid issues, you can compensate for that by adding more treble to try and make it sound balanced, but it's not really sorting the issues out. I think the balance issue is that your bass/kick is quite flabby and unfocused (and too loud) and so to compensate you've added a lot of brightness to guitars in particular. I'd suggest thinning out the kick a bit, it doesn't need to be a big thumpy sound for this genre, and cutting some low-mid on the bass. You'll probably find that it'll seem quite natural to then back off the top-end as well cos otherwise it'll sound super harsh.
Hope that helps, cheers, Matt
