I've tried to balance things a bit, and even attempted a bit of
compression and effects! :)
Any hints? What do you think of the track? I found
http://en.flossmanuals.net/bin/view/Ardour/ fantastically helpful for
this so thanks to everyone involved in that. I also tried using some
convolution using jconv so thanks to Fons.
Great improvement, everything is loooot better! :-)
I don't really wanna come with hints, you will improve a lot just by
continuing what you do, just as you've showed compared with the first mix.
Well.. you can do some automation on the vocal, her voice (words) disapears in
one or two places and maybe you can turn the guitar just a little bit up
again.
Rember to allways use the hipass filter on every track, that alone make the
mix sound clearer. Try > 50 on drums, 40-50 on bass, 80 on guitar possibly 130
on voice, try and test. Remember that hints, meanings on the 'Net and what
others are saying are (often subjective) directions, you are the boss! :-)
I like the track, just keep on the good working :-)

Thanks guys, I'll attempt to put some compression on the drums now
that i've got a better idea of how it works.
All the hints on here as well as the tools available have been great.
I'll play more with the high pass filtering etc. Band is getting
together this evening so hopefully the EP will be ready soon :)
At the moment there is no reverb, etc, not sure if there should be.
