New band, new mix, please help!

[The Front Studio]

Here's the song:

Link's prolly not working anymore.
EDIT: First of all, I WAS happy with this mix, but now I know it isn't.
So I need your feedback, and if you have some sweet hints/tips for me, please tell!

EDIT2: We're rerecording this stuff!

It's not very Christian of you to steal Waves plugins.

Vocals are WAY too loud.

And the guitars need to come up.

Jesus, turn those vocals down.:/

 

[rchoi54]

dude, it's nowhere close to being 100% good. it's at around 10%.

why is everything so quiet? compress the master bus!

guitars need meat. boost 400-1000Hz a lot.

and everything else is just way too weird to give you any specific advise on.

Steal? That's not very Christian of you to assume that I steal either.
I bought them, fair and square.

Because it's not mastered yet ;-)

Anyway, thanks for being so honest.
In fact this is the first time I did a proper recording, and they asked me to mix and master it, so I will.

Hahaha, I'm sure you can afford Waves plugs at 17, and I'm not Christian so that doesn't matter

You must have a helluva job to be able to blow thousands of dollars on plugins you don't even know how to use

100% correct
I certainly don't know how to use them YET, but I will
But I didn't ask you to comment my gear, I asked you to comment the song (well I don't consider not knowing how to use plugins accurate enough).
So please, tell me, what did I do wrong?

This thread is lulz. Post a screenshot of yourself using waves above version 5 and I will give you the godlike mix preset I swear its the best Andy himself uses it.

-TURN YOUR GUITARS THE FUCK UP.
-TURN YOUR BASS THE FUCK UP.

-Tell that band to get a new vocalist.
