Well the song sounds like a nice demo of the 90's rocknroll punk basements.
What you need to change is EQ first of all! The rule is not about only cut or only boost. It depends on what you want to do. The rule is
1) when you want to change the character of your sound you boost
2) when you want to keep the character and just clear the mix you cut

In the first mix I feel that the sources are ok, so you should cut more than boost in this occasion.

If something needs way more fixing you should also think the prospect of triggering a sound..

Also work on the panning of the guitar and finally work more with the reverbs and the space of the song..

So try, more easy eq, best panning for guitar, less boomy bass, maybe trigger the snare or something.. work on the sound in general with small steps..
