Sounds overcompressed, voices seems too loud at some part of the song and the lower one is a bit nazal.
Where are the High frequencies, specially in the drum ? (could be soundcloud's fault..)
The bass drum has a nice low end but I'm missing some on the bass guitar.
I bet the mix was done by a guitar player !! No ? Anyway they sound fine ;)
I like the vibe and the energy. Nothing jump at me as far as timming or tunning.
I think it just need a little love and it could sound nice..
Did you think of having someone different to mix it ? it's often hard to have a detached view if you are one of the musicians.

Just like the other one, drums up more, vocals down. Guitars are a little loud but fine if the drums come up without moving them down.
I’m guessing there’s some issues w the acoustics and/or monitoring, since your mixes are consistently revealing the same general balance tendencies.
This is of my all time favorite bands. I played shows with them in the early 2000’s. This album is a great modern punk production, done at the Blasting Room in Colorado. I suggest the full quality version for a mix reference.

I am not one of the musicians and I'm not a guitar player. I'll add a notch around 60 on the bass.

Hey that's a great track for reference man and I will absolutely use it often. I wouldn't say it's a room or monitoring issue as much as it is my ears and lack of experience. I can hear but sometimes I don't know what I'm listening for. My monitors are HS10s and my room is covered with rigid fiberglass including bass traps.
Here's a second go:

Getting there. The lead melody gtr seems a bit forward to me. I’d reference the other song your doing xxx and see how they sit side by side. I’d tweak this one to fit that if there’s differences in the drums and/or rythym guitars. Every song is different but sometimes it helps to hear it as an album or EP or whatever to get a different perspective and feel for the thing as a whole. Overall I’d say almost there maybe just a couple tweaks but nothing major. Good work.
