Critique my mix please

I have been working on mixing some of my music and I would like to hear what others have to say about it. I would appreciate some tips to help my mix be better. Thank you.

Kick is inaudible, and everything is pumping, and there is a lot of mud. Do some more cuts on the low area, very muddy.

Thank you. I went back to the mix and looked at my bass tone. I was using more of a woofy low end sound on it than I needed once I fixed that it helped the mix a lot. One thing I am back and forth about is how loud the kick should be.

drums need editing... bass drum does a wired job... maybe re-program it.
cut the guitars lower, make room for the Bass.
sharpen the Bass, extra distortion might help.
and I think your mastering is not really good. try to upload un-mastered
hope that helps

reverb on overheads?
if so, I would remove most of it.

thank you for the advice. I will work on my mix when i get home today and repost it. Could you explain what you mean when you said to reprogram the drums.

I meant that I dont like that part its playing in the beginning of the song
, I would just align it with the bass and guitars.
