Hey Shul, the mix sounds quite well balanced and clear, great work there. The biggest complain I can make is that the mix seems to lack a certain punch and power to it.
The drums are very dry and seem to be lacking punch, using some different samples and a plate reverb on the snare and toms can go along way on this track.
The vocals seem dry also and are forward but at the same time don't drive hard like a vocal in this genre. I found using an 1176 style compressor along with an LA 3a and a limiter really got me that in your face pop punk vocal along with a plate reverb and mono delay for some space.
The guitar and bass tone you've got going on is quite good, the bass could use more drive but that's more taste wise.
Overall you've got a solid and balanced mix going on.
Cheers,
Dcp

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
