Hey Luke - cool tune and choice guitar playing and tone. Vocals are totally balls to the walls perfect.
The drums for me could be a little louder - mostly in the beginning. The odd spot the vocals pop out a tiny bit.
Overall excellent other than the two minor mentions above.

Thanks ido, I'll work on those drums and repost.
 
dude the kick is stomping! love the tone and attack, the snare is a little boxy to me, needs a little more crack. the OHs could come up a bit. the guitar parts are smoking! Vocals are awesome. the bass could come up a bit to match that awesome kick sound. the toms sound really good but also could come out a bit. maybe add a touch of verb on the rim shots. overall great mix. I love the song.:thumbs up:

Here is a mix with the adjustments you recommended. Let me know if it is an improvement.

Oh yeah, much better, now I can hear the bell, not sure if it is a hat or ride but I like it, the snare sounds better. the toms are more punchy. Its got a Motley Crue edge to it, maybe DIO lol. I like it.:D
 
Personally, I dont like the sound of the kick drum, but for the style it sounds just fine. What I dont dig is the gate reverb thing...but again, maybe that is something that you went for.

Tastes aside, the vocals sounds kinda loud to me and I guess you could record more guitars with different tones (IDK I already did this) to give it a little bit more weight. Dont get me wrong, they sound fine...but I guess they could be more upfront in the mix.
