Critique these recordings please.

I did these recordings for a KISS tribute cd. I would like to have some constructive criticism about these. I don't really need to know things like YOU SUCK or the sort. I would like serious review that would actually help me. Thanks in advance. I am interested especially in criticism of the mixing and mastering. I did all the guitars and bass. The drums were my oldest son. The vocals are a combo of myself, my oldest son and my youngest son.

PS. I purposely left off what products were used for this recording to avoid people cutting on it just because I used the wrong brand. If it is important I can add the specs later for those that would really like to know.

that's a pretty good effrot. decent balance but I wanted to hear a stronger guitar presence, still cool...

On Love em.... The guitars drop down too low in the mix when the first verse starts. I felt a power drop. More guitars and vocals up in the mix. Try for a "wall of sound" sound. Bring up the guitars in the verses please.
