The mix sounds OK, but here are my pointers.

Bring up the rhythm guitars in the mix and take the leads down in the mix. That will help out a lot. Also, are the rhythm guitars scooped? They sound like they are lacking some midrange. Adding some more mids to the rhythm guitars will help them cut a little more. Drums sound fine and can stay where they are.

I would also look into the very beginning of the riff, it starts out very abrubtly, I'd add a very short pick scrape or something to make it easier to the ear.

The snare is somewhat agressive to my ears and i would add a fair amount of bass to this mix.

Good job though, I loved the phrasing!

YEs, they are scooped a little, for the type of sound i look for (kind of an 80/90´s tone) too much midrange compromises the whole thing.
Yes, the leads are too loud, thanks! (mixing through headphones sucks sometimes):wallbash:

You´re right i does start kinda abruptly. The snare? Agressive? Blame on the reverb being on 11! hahaha

Thx!
