Thanks for the feedback. Some of those cymbol crashes were piercing and ugly.The overheads were the culprit. Was sending too much direct to the 2 bus and not enough to the drum bus. Posting a new mix that hopefully fixes the issue.

Rook,
The only thing which grabs me the wrong way with your mix is the seeming inversion of the overheads on the drums and the rest of the kit. The cymbals are flying at me while the rest of the kit is in a very good place. Maybe too much squeezing, as you said. Back off the drum buss compression and re-balance the cymbals?
