Dirty-ass mix - real everything

[DolphinSplatter]

Warning: this is the opposite of every mix here

I recorded this band a while back and I'm finally working on finishing the mix.
It's very proto-death metal-y. Lots of Slayer and Celtic Frost.
Anyways, they want a really dirty, old-school mix, and this is what I have so far

Any comments and pointers are welcome

sounds good so far, but somehow i miss some huge reverb on the drums, maybe just for the slow parts, so it doesnt get muddy with the blasts. bass, guitars and vocals sound very fucked up in a positive way!

I'm loving the vibe, but there's a bit too much of the wrong midrange in those guitars that's taking up a ton of space that could be left for other instruments.

Cool song and mix too, real natural thing going on. Any info on your drums?

It was a no-name (and probably pretty old drumset)
26" bass drum - sm57
16" "rack" tom - e609
18"floor tom - e609
Tama (i think) snare - 57 top and bottom
Overheads were a pair of peavey PVM 480's. He had small hihats (12s or 13s) one huge crash and a bigger ride.
Old-ass heads on everything. No reso head on the kick. but he hit like a motherfucker, so that helped.
