The drums sound tooo dry for the wide wall of guitar

high frequency content or accentuation to really persist against the
guitars and the very bright open hihat.
IMHO the sound is consistent. It's missing transparency, but apart
from some "freshness" (boosting high frequencies at 10 K might do the
job, didn't test it, since I didn't listen to a song completely) and
from making the kick a little bit louder, the mix IMHO is ok.
In Phantom Legion there's a lowly shuffled sound
or instrument in the
background. Is that the bass?
When there's the need to ask, then the mix isn't transparent! Less
compression and more EQing with knowhow IMHO is needed.
