    Mix feedback requested - tool-esque metal - live drums + vox

    We have someone in mind to mix our album but the tracking has stalled for a few months so I thought I'd get some mixing practice in and possibly kick start the recording process by bringing something a little closer to the finished project to the rest of the guys. My mixing skills are pretty...
