modern metal mixed by the oldschool guy

Hello. I need your opinions before I send it to the band. I know the song requires some editing and maybe more automation. I received the tracks a few days ago and this is the first rough version.

Guitars are too much saturated.

 

[forsaker]

Thx. I'll try to modify it.

Yeah, the guitars are way too dominant. Its like the drums and the guitars dont work together. Definitely get those drums more upfront/present! There could also be alot more low end for my taste. Otherwise, good rough version!!

Thanks a lot. When I record the vocalist next week, I will publish the new version.

Hell-o!! Below you can find the newest version with vocals. What can be changed?

Anyone?

In the meantime I prepared a new version: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106229499/dc/0605new.mp3 Vocals need automation for sure but what about the overall sound? What can be changed? Thx in advance!

Sounded good to me. Listening on a tablet so not a real surgical system but the only thing was that maybe the snare is a smidge overpowering.but not distractingly so.

Thanks! I guess you are right - I will turn the snare down in some parts.
