I'm recording an EP for this band and of course after tracking is finally finished for the FIRST SONG ONLY they're like "WE NEED A MIX RIGHT NOW TO PUT ON MYSPACE" so I made them this rough mix and told had them write "preproduction" in the title on myspace. I could use some help getting this rough mix closer to a finished product however!

Here's a little clip from the song:

The guitars will be reamped, theyre pod farm right now. My drum tones eat dick. I have no idea what's going on with bass tones, and I've got no clue how to mix this style of vocals. Help please? <3
 
in all honesty dude, it's sounding pretty good already to me, the low end just needs to be brought up a bit, try adding another lower kick sample that should help.
 
Pretty sure you just posted this mix to gloat dude. This sounds great already! I would like do hear the drums cut through this mix more though, especially the kick, it will help with emphasising the chugging style guitars.

Have you effected the vocals at all? Perhaps a bit of reverb or delay, i might be wrong but they sound pretty dry.

This final product is going to sound killer!
