cool mix, really enjoyed it. Not too bright, too harsh, too honky - everything sits in the right place. If you compare your mix with Immortal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOOebk_dKFo) the guitars sound different and somewhat "unusual" for this kind of genre (black/death metal) but I like it.
Good job mate!
Thank you Blitzzz, I'm glad you like it! And thank you for providing a perspective on the choice of guitar-sound. I wanted to make the guitar sound quite lo-fi and old-school (though without bringing in harshness in the process). So it has this radio-like quality, and definitely a much narrower frequency range than modern-sounding acts like the newer Immortal. The choice was also a technical one in order to carve out room for the bass and the hihat/cymbals.
It could be an interesting challenge to remix the track and aim for a more modern sound in the guitars. I would probably reamp them in that case.
Cheers!
