Is this mix a disaster? (melodic metal/power thrash)

[B.C.Johnson]

I've posted other mixes here that were pretty much torn to shreds, but I think I might be getting closer to "the sound." It is not an original, but a song by Children of Bodom. Before I give information on the equipment and such, which would allow you guys to draw preconceived notions about the quality, I'd like to hear some feedback first. Thanks.

Sounds quite good but keys need to be brought down a bit(at bits)and drums brought up a lot.

Keys sound great at most bits. just a little loud at 1 bit(30-50secs)

I'd say that the bottom end is lacking, and the drums are too low in the mix as well. Also, the drums just aren't getting the big sound I normally associate with metal.

Also I agree with others that the keys are too hot.

Sounds very clean.

Along with the other comments. I thought the Rhythem/Backing guitar was a bit overbearing at times. Nice melody to the tune. The faster rhythem guitar bits could be tighter as well.
