Put the Reverb opposite of the side the guitars are on,,,
Watch balance,,, and drums and bass are a bit buried,,,
Keep the dynamics and separation,,,
Bit more automation in quite a few area's would really make this perfect,,,

Nice song,,,
I'd like to give a go mixing this :D,,, would be fun :D
 
I kinda agree with vomit, the low end is lacking, but, there are some exciting things I hear going on with the low end. I would throw some compression on the bass guitar and tighten it up a bit along with the bass drum. Highs are great but there comes a time when a style like alt or metal has to have some balls! Bass is where the balls are. tighten up the lows and give the bass guitar some punch and I think you'll find the flavor of the song falls in place.
 
Here is a newer version:

started off really good, but then it seemed off balance wen everything kicked in. I would consider doubling the guitars on each side. So instead of the R guitar playing the chords lower and the L guitar playing a higher rhythm, I would put one of each on each side. It's ok to have 4 total guitars, and it'll have the soundscape wider and more full.

The guitars also seem to have a boost in the treble/presence area. Almost a bit harsh in spots. Cymbals a bit washy when there's consecutive hits too.

I'd look at arrangement and panning, particularly the guitar arrangements and placement. Nice track, cool song.
