My first attempt at Mixing/Mastering. Please criticize!

This was recorded in a normal house, no special sound rooms, drums are 50% triggered and overall recorded with low quality gear, I tried my best to mix this and master it, any suggestions and possible improvements? Much appreciated!

if you use a limiter,pull it down!! i can hear a lot of peaks!
if you don't use a limiter,do it
also,i can hear frequencies jumping out all over the place, u don't use eq?
i like a lot the song,but you need a limiter

other things that can improve your mix is to add some reverb/delay to the scream vocals,and remove the reverb from the guitar (if used)
also,give +2 or +3db at solo to hear the sweeping

this is just my opinion! good start!

Will do man! and I do use both a limiter and eq,
how should I eq the over all song? I raised the highs very little and got rid of the muddy low end,but how to I make the frequencies more controlled with eq?
And yes, Sweeps <3 lol Thank you!
