Especially this big, huge wall of sound (toms) at 03:27, how did they do that, how did they get the toms at that specific part to sound so unbelievably huge (I can't imagine widening and eq'ing alone is going to achieve this).

Any info much appreciated, I searched before posting, but couldn't find anything relevant.

It was mixed by Tom Lord Alge as well as "Dare to Move" from the movie A Walk to remember. There is no mention of who mastered it but my guess was Ted Jensen.
