Nice sounding mix. But, where is intro ?

overall a really nice mix and as such anything I say is pretty minor in the scheme of things

1. The vox level is maybe a touch high at times. It sounds perfect to me during the guitar solo crescendo in chorus 3. Maybe some/more level automation is required.

2. the overall dynamics maybe could do with more contrast. The choruses and solo sound wide and huge which is good....but so do the verses e.g in v1 you have some gtr 1 spread to RHS....so it sounds wide....but we lose lift into chorus 1 when gtr 2 comes in because we have no width contrast.

cheers, Simon
Be fierce in your encouragement, kind in your criticism and try and remember that the art of a good critique is not to make someone else's mix sound like yours...but to help the mixer realize their own vision.

Another great mix Don!
It sounds like you have come up with a solid work flow and a somewhat organised systematic approach that's working for you, especially with your mixes of late. I hearing good solid consistency throughout. Quite a big hurdle to jump over.
