New mix, new song... critique?

[mburton21]

Not exactly one of our "new" songs but we enjoy playing it and therefore recording it:

Thinking of possibly tuning up from Drop A# to Drop B (C# standard). I've been messing around and it might help in clearing up the low end mud.

Anyways, thoughts and such are very much appreciated. G'day.

Sounds good, those harmonic riffs are really good. I would give a little bit of volume to the snare... just a thought to create a tighter sound.
do you have myspace so i can hear more of your stuff? i liked a lot!

this mix is too loud, i can hear saturation on the whole mix and alot of clipping here and there.

maybe it happened on the mastering session?

Thanks for the replies!

Yes I believe it's happening in the mastering session, I noticed it a little too late. I can run it again using less boosting.

All the ones posted are of the same master so they will be clipping much the same.

I had the L2 on there with a threshold of -2db and out ceiling of -0.3db but it made it far too mashed together and loud so I took it off, could have just been the settings I used on it.
