So, I have completed recording my new album, and started mixing it. I am pretty happy with the results, (It's the first time I actually miked instruments, used real amp and bass) but I'm pretty sure that my mix could be better, so if anyone could chime in and give me some feedback I would really appreciate it.

Sounds like the guitars are a bit too loud, they drown out the rest of the instruments. I'd try bring them down a bit and see how it sounds.

Thanks for the input, I really aprecciate it. I made some changes to my mix, is it any better now? It is a bit lower in volume-wise because of the guitars, but otherwise I think it's better now.

Honestly I think it still needs a bunch of work.

The clean guitars in the intro are fairly sloppy. Do whatever it takes to correct that, even if it means punching in the last few notes of the riff so the transitions don't sound obviously sloppy.
