Default Fire Fly's - mix still in progress

Like to get opinions on a few things please.
1. Is the drum beat too sporadic or not consistant enough to move the song along?

2. Do the main guitar tones suck and cause fatigue ?

3. ?????

Thanks in advance

Damn your mixing has gotten good! I'm stuck with phones for the moment, so I have the right to blast.
EDIT:
NOT fatiguing.

Well done, cool track.

1. Last song I posted was criticised for [paraphrased] overly sporadic drums. That considered I think the drums sound fine here.

2. Not fatiguing. Good crunch but is creamy not harsh.

Good tune! Not a big fan of the lead tone (sounded a bit fizzy to me) but overall the song sounded great!

Good job!

I like this a lot! The drums are fine, and the rhythm guitars kick arse!

The lead guiitar could be a bit less.. um dry? I dunno.. Maiybe a tiny bit of verb, or something, to make it "blend in"? not much though.. it has to be very discrete, imho.

Actually, I'll PM you

Great mix, great variation in the arrangement. One solo might be a tiny bit too long.

Lead recorded di and I'm using N.I Guitar Rig 5(which I haven't spent much time with) I'm sure there's room for improvement

Thank you for commenting

I think I know where and what your referring too. One Bar shorter might have been the ticket or better thought out licks to carry that section through to the break down part.

Thanks for listening !!!
