In a dire need of advice before sending the mix off to the band...

I'm having the most trouble with vocals.
All advice is much appreciated.

The intro is long so bear with me and the main screamer comes in at somewhere around 1:12. The synth around 2:20 mark is way to quiet and i'm probably removing it from the final version anyway.

There is something weird going on with those vocals... Sounds like they are too distant. maybe you overdid the reverb? Regarding the instrumental, try getting automation in there to bring up elements in the mix that should stand out. The guitars could come up alot more in the chorus.

Bass is quiet, drums are loud, and I can barely hear any cymbals.

Anyone else, any opinions/crits ?

Snare is waaaay too snappy/poppy sounding.
I absolutely love the vocal processing.
And yeah the synth is way too quiet.

The vocals are too upfront and have too much verb/noticeable fx making them sound distant.
Rhythm guitars need to come up and are a little dark.
- Boost some somewhere in 4-6khz to get some grit
Bass is too quiet
Cymbals are too quiet
I like the kick and snare sound
