Here is dry mix. Guitars are WAY thin! hmmmmmmm? Sounds horrible!
Sounds better already...I much prefer this to the other mix....more listenable
I don't think they are too thin..they're probably about right , but I wouldn't thin them any more. Maybe try to thicken the leads with a doubler type effect.
The drums sound slightly off to the one side to me, unless I broke my headphones
ok...next stage is to work on your fader rides to give it punch and dynamics. I normally draw them in but some like to use a control surface fader if they have one, but there's lots of bits where I can hear things need to be pushed up or pulled back especially on the vocals. Rule of thumb push things more on the chorus and drop them back a litttle in the verses. In the middle section those panned guitar sounds could come up a few db's. Sometimes it's better to work on the final chorus first as it should be the loudest section, then you won't run out of headroom as you move backwards.
It should end up with automation lines that look like a London underground map
Don't eq anything yet

We never finish a mix... we simply abandon them.
You can't polish a turd, but you can always spray paint it GOLD
Great songs are not written, they are re-witten
