Hello,

So im working on this mix atm and im struggling a bit to get it right. The toms need some more work especially in the intro. And there are a bit of pumpin in clip one, im gonna see if i can fix that later on. I just added the vocals so they are a bit rough.
The mix in general are a bit rough, no automation and i haven't fiddled with snare hits etc. But any comments on the mix in general would be nice

Here is the clips:

The guitar tone is pretty cool but a bit boxy in the lower mids and not sharp enough for this type of music IMO. The whole mix is actually pretty dark and round...

The drums sound big but not really glued to the rest of the mix enough. The snare and the reverb on it especially really poke out too much to me.

Vocals are buried but you said you're still working on those. Bass seems cool.
