Hey! It's sounding quite a bit better now! I'm feeling the power a lot more. Definitely hearing the more defined bass drum and the snare's hitting harder. The mix definitely sounds tighter with out the added reverb. There's still something on the guitars that's not right. It's like I'm hearing artifacts from something. But definitely a big improvement, to my ears at least. Good job!

Could be. I'm not familiar with it. Maybe if you could post the song without it, I could see if I was still hearing whatever I'm hearing. :)

Hey, I just listened to the guitars. They are what's sounding weird to me. I'm hearing something like a really short slapback echo or something. Are you using any kind of stereo imager? Something is leaving some artifacts on your guitars. It might be that the guitar tracks sound fine individually, but when you put them together, they don't jive. Did you record 2 separate guitar tracks, or did you just record one and then clone it? Cloning will cause phase issues a lot of times. Let me know, and what effects you have on them, also. :)

P.S. I hope you know I'm just trying to help get your song sounding the best, not trying to nitpick it to death.
