Hello Dcp
Here are my observations on your mix.
*Balance: Your drums are poking out in the mix overall. Kick and toms especially. This is more apparent in headphones. I would suggest you drop a couple of db on it. Other than that I have no complains
*Guitars are sounding smooth but I believe that much reverb on it makes it lose power. Are you by any chance using a reverb WITHIN the guitar track itself? or are you using a WET verb on a separate buss? .. just curious because my ears are telling me you are using reverb within the guitars track itself. Which explains why that particular coloration gives me that feeling of less power. If this is the case, I would suggest you leave the guitars raw and put the verb on a buss to prevent coloration of the guitar tone. If not, My apologies.
*I like the eq on the vocal. On the soft part bridge though (3:55).. that flanger you gave it is making the volume drop at points which is making it to get lost in the mix. Nothing some automation won't fix.
*That lead guitar at 3:25 that lead on the left is not as loud as I would want it to enjoy it. Nothing some automation can't fix.
Overall this is really good man. Some of the details I pointed out are a matter of taste and Some I believe you need to fix to make this sound even better.. Keep it up. It's a good mix.
