This song is a little bit heavier than the last one that I posted. There was anger to be excised...
I feel we achieved that, but please judge for your kind selves.
 
***Fair warning: this song contains the unadulterated version of mofo at 2:44, so those sensitive
to language please feel free to hit mute for 3 seconds. But then please un-mute and take a geeze
at Mike's excellent solo! (timecode 3:18)***

I did get a minuet into it, then I realised that everything was louder than everything else.  When any one part took a breath or paused for some reason it sounded like the parts themselves had been recorded quite well but.....

I think the mix needs a little TLC I will keep the furry lugs open for the remix.

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah this one had me wondering a little bit and I wasn't sure if it was tapping the limits of my cheap speakers? What you said kind of encapsulates a bit of feedback that I've gotten from others. The only problem was everyone seemed to have a different instrument that they thought was a little too prominent, so I didn't know where to start when one person thinks the vox are too loud, then the next thinks the drums are too loud, so on and so forth.
 
Do you think it's a general levels issue, or that the sounds need to be softened a bit tonally?

I would start again with the mix.  Bring everything down then start with the drums and the bass.  You may well need to use some surgical EQ on the Bass to create some space for the Kick.

Then bring up the guitars again using surgical EQ to create the space for each element.  If you Guitars are recorded in Stereo I would bounce them to Mono as this will give you more PAN control.

Then bring up the Vox.  Possible consider a global Reverb to sit each element within a similar space.

Hope that helps best Wooks

Tear down and rebuild? I had feared as much... Haha! Thanks for your input and I shall pass along your comments.

Wow - full on from the start.
Instruments and voices are very well recorded and performed but there's too much competition between each part.
I agree to start again but you have all the elements to have a great track here

What Wookie and Daryl said. Compared to your last one, this has no dynamics. Everything is just turned up to 11. 
 
Could be be a cool song buried in there.

Michael/Royal,
  This one is heavy but fun ride.  I like the varied tones of the vocals, it works well to my ear.  Driving guitar, bass and drums are nice and sounded well on my system.  No real crits on this, it just freakin rocked!  Nice job on this one.

I enjoyed the guitar...great tone...
and this mix seems to be in a better place...is
this a "fixed" mix?  I didn't get to hear it before now...

I'm in the disagreement camp with everyone above Lars. What you have is spot on for the genre (IMO).
 
Great mix.
