Melodic Metal rough mix - real everything (well... almost)

Feel free to rip this to shreds. This is my first mix of an outside full band, usually it's my own projects. Guitars were quad tracked, bass was DI then split up, comp'd, and run through Helian. Drums were live then had samples blended in, they were tracked in a small rehearsal studio with other bands blasting away in the rooms to both sides of their space. Keys are all using stock sounds direct from her rig.

It sounds "good" to me, but my experience has been with heavy rock up to now. I'm def. interested in any guitar and vocal criticisms you guys have.

Fire away!

EDIT: New link, new mix. Louder guitars, lowered overheads. Tear it apart. Please!

Bah on second thought, ignore these. Guitars are way too pushed back and thin sounding. More tweaking to come after work

It's not bad, guitars are too low, but it sounds good

Bumpity Bump!

New link, new mix. I've lowered the overheads, beefed up the guitars, and EQ'd the keys to stand out a bit more. Please let me know what you think, as I said in post 1 this is my first attempt with a melodeath band so I'm up for any and all criticism.
