You might have been too drastic with cutting the low-end on the vocals, try taking it back a bit. Also, what really sticks out for me is the sibilance on the vocals. You might want to use a de-esser, or take down the sibilance with a really fine EQ band.

Its more than just the vocal. The EQ on the track has a lot of top end noise or distortion which is also blending and adding to the sibilance.

Re think the EQ and sort out the sibilance.
