Hello everyone,
I'm sequencing and mixing the drums for a song and I was wondering if anyone would be willing to listen to my drum mix in progress. It's not metal, it's just standard rock, I suppose. But even though it's not metal, this forum is one of the most helpful I've ever seen for recording, so hopefully it won't bore you too badly to listen.
I'm going for a pretty natural but punchy kind of drum sound, although I do want a somewhat forward kick sound because there's occasionally some brief double kick. And as a disclaimer, I know that it's impossible to really gauge how the drums are going to really sit in the mix until the other instruments and recorded, so I'm not necessarily asking for an in-depth critique of their mix, but rather I'd like to know if anything just sounds noticeably 'off' during a quick listen.

The song will switch to a quiet (semi-clean) part at 0:25 and then back to a louder, in your face instrumentation at 0:58, btw.
