many thanks!

All in all that mix need some work,

how did you mic the cabs? and definately work on your tone,

the snare is rather nice though but that kick needs a little less "click"
 
TNX for the comment!

only thing i didn't do myself was the reamping. so i'm not sure how was it done...
currently i can't do reamping myself so i have to stick with what i have...

someone fancy doing reamping for me? it's 4 rhythm guitars only :)

as for the kick I agree and will fix that.
 
Use a subkick sample to fatten the Kick up... Eq it a little less high end... Vocals feel like they are on another level from the band drop them into the mix instead of on the mix... Parallel Compress the guitars and give them more mids... Drums need to be bussed to a reverb the feel like they have no room to breathe... Other than that i liked it for the most part... Toms need some work too...
