What do you think of that thrash metal mix ?

[Sly]

I begin to mix a 11 songs album, and this is my first shot to the mix :

This is my second one :

The mixes are peaking, but that will give you an idea of where I want to go.

This is ITB mixing with headphones, and the final mix will be done into the studio with OTB great gear (and good monitors of course).

It's a little muddy and lacks air but i'm currently trying to improve that (the guitars were recorded through a MOTU 828, I'd like to rerecord them now that we have the Roseta 800, but the guitarist does not have enough time to do it...).

What do you think, suggestions ?

It's done in Logic Express 7, with some basic plugs. No toms nor vocals yet.

No one ?

Well, since this is by no mean the final mix and the final thing will be much different, what could we say ?
Sounds naughty already, good work Sly, you nailed part of the greasiness, well done

I like the guitar sound!
Sorry 'bout the lack of constructive criticism, but I'm really tired right now...
