This is the band that I'm mixing right now, they recorded everything by themselves, need some opinion/tips from you guys, @_@. From the raw clip, is there anything I can improve?

It lacks definition and the drums are too machine-like. What;s your monitoring environment? Sounds a bit like it's mixed on scooped hi-fi speakers.

Wait let me post the original un-mixed version, let see what can I improve from the raw file, atleast you get the idea what it sounds like, I need your opinion on how can I improve, they did all the recording, I just mix what they recorded. Huhuh.

*Bouncing on Pro Tools 9, will upload in another few mins*

Clean up around 200hz-500hz and boost the highs a couble of db. Change the kick sample with a better one with multiple velocities and be careful with the low end.
