that comment to me means you didn't like my mix at all.

untrue. i did like your mix / mixing in general for the reasons stated... you have a great talent for individualizing components and making them all audible and controlled. it's impressive and intimidating.
it's tricky though. obviously we saw different things in the song, based on the approach to the mix we individually took. that goes for everyone involved. it's like standing in the middle of your friends living room that has white walls and suddenly blurting out the color that you think the room should be painted.
obviously this song was a blank wall in unmixed form, and we all stepped into the room and shouted "RED!" or "GREEN!"
for me to turn to you and say, "Dude, red? Are you crazy? It should totally be blue." that would be assinine.

so instead of me diving into what i did, i'm actually much more interested in hearing what you think is wrong with my mix

i thought the super wide and upfront guitars were a bit overdone. the drums were pushed back a tad farther that i would have done it.
it's not wrong. just different than what i did.
