Default More Death Metal...

This is the unmixed intro to the newest song, I'm working on. It needs mix work for sure, but I would like some feedback on...

Does everything sound good and tight? and does the lead sound good coming in when it does? I'll bump this later, as I start mixing it.

Thanks

i canīt judge the mix because donīt have any means of listening in good quality but to me the drums sounded a bit clunky on a few parts in the middle... but mostly those are some badass death metal riffs as usual
EDIT sorry didnt read that it was unmixed... The drums sound fine and tight with the riffs on the blastbeat parts but to me it sounds a bit wierd on the drumroll sort of part. Otherwise the lead sounds good where its at ribht now

the riffs are good but the lead just sounds horribly out of place to me.

This is completely off topic but what's your recording setup
I still think the lead is in a good place though XD

Vocals need some of the low end cutting out a bit I think, or dropping in volume, it's taking away from the rest of the mix. Other than that, I like it (maybe a bit of humanization on the drums, sounds like its all at one velocity level or close to)

Thanks I will try maybe high passing a little more on the vocals. And, I'll see if I can humanize the drums a bit
