Not bad. The snare is a bit ringy. The vocals sound uncompressed. The guitars' volume changes a bit between the clean and distorted. Try to match them.
 
I agree with what Squibble said. Definitely needs some compression on the vocals. Also, the bass drum is very quiet, i can hardly hear it. I would definitely boost it.
 
Sounds good.

try a little reverb on the snare, and double the vocals.
 
Pretty good overall.

The vocals were pretty pitchy throughout, and the way the lead guitar dropped out halfway through the first verse was really abrupt.

Otherwise, I don't have any major complaints.
 
Thanks for your input guys. I compressed and autotuned the vocals a bit and they sound much better. As far as the drums go.. I recorded them with only 2 overheads (recorder man [I'm pore]), so i dont have much individual control over them. I have fiddled with the eq and compression, but it only does so much.

Perceived volume difference... Distorted guitars by nature are compressed... you hear more of the fundamentals than the transients, which is the opposite with clean guitars. Clean guitars when unprocessed are generally uncompressed which means your gonna hear more transients which is gonna make the clean sound much bigger and louder than your distorted sound.


Compress your clean guitars:)
