I need some pointers with my mix.

Having some trouble mixing leads.
What do you guys hear?
Thanks

I like this track. I think some good reverb on the leads would make them kinda lay back in the mix, allowing other elements to shine.

Thanks man! The pretty part was pretty wet, but the lead rhythms have a slight reverb, and I'm trying to get some clarity during those parts, not sure which way to go about it.

i think guitars should go more front.. and less kick drum. whats the guitar chain? i will be happy to know how you got em so clean and focused

Bring the drums down, let the guitars shine through a bit more. Snare could use some more low-end body, but that's just my taste.

Bring them down entirely? I think definitely starting to hear the kick a little loud. Small boost around 200- 300 hz or?

Thanks

Sweet mix! Vocals reminded me of Matt Hastings from MyChildren MyBride

Yeah, I personally would cut some 1-2k crack out of it and get some nice splatty 500-800hz and low-end 200-300hz in it.
