Sorry in advance man, the sped up tempo sounds really unnatural and takes away the impact of the track. It reminds me of hitting the fast forward button and holding play at the same time on a cassette deck.
Otherwise the mix sounds pretty good, the lead guitar in the solo is pretty forward in the mix and the snare and toms do tend to sound fairly compressed (this might also be a side effect of speeding up the track)and when the drummer starts digging in on the louder choruses the cymbals tend to sound harsh and brittle. The vocals sound clear and clean but have some honkiness to them, prehapse from a phaser or doubling the vocals in some way. The bass is nice and fat sounding and the acoustic guitars have a nice shimmer to them, good job there.
I can't really make too many more comments because the sped up tempo is really throwing me off here
. Otherwise the mix does sound pretty good.

Mixing is way more art and soul than science. We don’t really know what we’re doing. We do it because we love music! It’s the love of music first. Eddie Kramer
