Hey guys, I'm working on getting the best possible mix for the first song off my band's new album. I'm going to import a lot of the project settings into the rest of the mixes and tweak them as need be so I want to get this one as tight as possible so I have a good starting place for the rest of the mixes!
Here's the mix I've got so far:

Any sort of criticism, advice or ideas are welcome. I want to get the best possible mix I can so be as honest as you need to
Some things that might be helpful to know:
-There is no mastering going on
-Guitars are quad tracked hard and 80% and ran through a buss
-I tried using some sidechain compression on the kick/bass for the first time
-There is no aux/room reverb going on - that'll be done by the mastering engineer
I can also answer any other questions that'll help you help me
