I know you guys can point me in the right direction...

What do you think about this mix? How to improve it?
My ears are really blown atm. I can't tell good from bad anymore...

The Band is satisfied, but i'm not... *i guess at least*
I have to get this fucker done within the next 2 days.

HELP!!!!

More kick drum, I would personally take a bit of the low mids out of the snare. A bit more top on the cymbals. Tom's need some of that dullness taken out.
 
I think the hi-hat is definately too "in your face", harsh and loud compared to the cymbals and other drums. Guitars sound a bit phasey and metallic. Just way too "metal" for this kind of stuff IMO. They also lack the low mids which then again the drums seem to have a lot... so the guitars and drums just don't mix together that well IMO. And where's the bass? Since this is punk rock, I'd definately like to feel the bass more. The bass should give the song more "drive" and make it "move forward".... kinda hard to explain since english isn't my native language, but I hope I made some sense :-D.

btw. Did the band give you any reference cds?
