Your snare and cymbals need to be brighter, thats the most obvious thing to me. The bass sounds OK - compress it, maybe boost 60hz and roll off some above 2K. Try panning the guitars instead of the vocals...

Come on! Please! Give me your worst words if you like but tell me something. I'd really apreciate some words of you sluty gear maniacs.

Kind words of encouragement Randy

Yes i need advice like this, right now i feel like 3 feet under but i know it's a long way...

I noted, when we were reording, that "tool box" instead of snare, i was thinking reamping the snare and micing the botom of it. Do you think this would help a little?

Any sugestions on the guitar?

Or should i shoot myself?

Fix the source if you can re-track. If the drum sounds like shite, it's gonna record like shite. If you re-amp the snare, it'll sound like distorted shite. Sounds like there is a hollow

y sound to the snare drum. What heads are on there? Are they new? Can you actually find someone that can tune a drum kit?

The guitar. I actually like the guitar sound. But that's just me.

Those vocals are just annoying. Must be showing my age.
