This is a group of dudes I recorded a week ago, they are all 17 and 18, the name of the band is At the Hands Machines.

This is one of their tracks, this is just the mix with a little compression and mild limiting, please let me know what you think could change or what needs to be fixed.Thank you!!!

The kick and vocals are the only thing that don't really need work. The guitars seem really scooped. Snare has too much reverb.

Less reverb on the snare as Unavailable already said

Thanks for you replies dudes, so snare reverb any thing else you can say about the mix?

where's the mosh smiley?

I can hear everything pretty evenly, it might only be my preference but I'd smash the vocals with compression and maybe a bit of eq to sit better in the mix
it just depends on what the band was wanting you to do really

The hi end of guitars sounds fizzy, and the mids are lacking.

here is an updated mix, i think the drums have improved a bit and the guitars are biting a little bit more, take a listen if you've got a second, thanks!

Better but there's still something wrong with the snare (too loud / too much reverb ?) IMO

+1. Sounds too loud to me.
