WOAH that's really crushed by compression and limiting. Thankfully, there's mid-range so frequency wise it's well balanced. However, I feel like it would sound better if it wasn't quite so limited / crushed. There's also a lot of build up in the 90hz to 100hz area and that's especially obvious when it starts pumping and the snare disappears into a thippy burst of wires.
A little less 90hz and less aggressive limiting would make this a lot easier on the ears! But other than that, the balance is pretty good. I just feel like you took it from proggy / death metal and made it blackened death with simple aesthetic choices. If that was your intent, it's cool! If not, I'm happy to help you out in getting closer to your vision for it with continued criticism
