Here is a mix of AILD - Confined (breakdown segment)
I intend to mix/master my bands EP to this quality (facebook 'Mutant Lion Massacre', I recorded the EP that is on our page). Now I know there are no vocals or much depth to this but i'm really just looking for opinions here guys. Harsh but constructive criticism is welcome! Thanks =]
ALSO.. I am just the drummer but tracked the guitars and bass, I'm a mediocre guitar player at best as you can hear and our guitarists will add that extra bit of tone!

Everything sounds very scooped. I'm not hearing the bass guitar at all. The drums need to come up, and the tone needs some surgical EQing.

Thanks for commenting man. Yeah, the bottom end and highs are scooped a bit, would you say bring the bass up by +2/+3 dB? And any ideas on where to cut on the guitar tone...
at the minute the only EQ used on the guitars are a HP filter at 100Hz, LP filter at 12kHz and a small boost at 125Hz.
