Hardcore Song Mix HELP (Real Drums and Amps)

[xPoopsx]

I am having trouble getting everything to glue together.

I need some tips to get the mix to sit better.

The only sample replacement on the drums is the high end of the kick.

Everything else is all natural (drums and guitars)

Please Help.

Can barely hear the drums under the guitars.

Thanks for the suggestions. I was spending too much time mixing that I lost reference.

This definitely isn't perfect, but this is what I ended up with.
