Hmmmmm, the only way I can describe what I'm hearing is a total lack of low mid range. It is there, but to the ear it is mainly focused around 3-6KHz. but is lacking in giving the low end more harmonics, it really sounds like there is a big lack of anything under 80Hz. In general the mix sounds "boxy" and "tinny" to my ears. Really it seems like everything was run through a High Pass filter and ultimately took away from making it sound "full".
Now, that with the being said I really like the boxy room sound of the drums quite a bit. Though I do wish the kick had some more weight and the same with the snare. I like the overall definition of the toms and the cymbals though. The only issue I had with the guitars was the solo. The last guitar is just so darn resonant and peaky that it eats straight through your ear. Though I will admit I did like the use of the M80 mic for it. Sounded pretty good that way.
Overall, the mix has a good balance just lacking in that full range sound. Give some more low end to your elements for some more overall oomph.
