I just finished recording a demo for my friends band to help get their name out, but, alas, I need some help.

My main problem is with the drums.

The kick sounds boxy as all hell and I can't seem to fix it with eq. On top of that, i tried to sample replace it, but I could not find a single kick that sounded good for this type of song.

The snare was super ringy (St. Anger style, haha) and I can't get it to sound very up-front. once again, I searched, but could not find a sample I really thought fit.

I think the bass might be too boomy as well in some parts, any suggestions?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated and great thanks in advance to anyone who helps. :D
