Hey guys was wondering if anybody could give me their opnions on this new mix. Any constructive critisism would be greatly appreciated

Guitars are too compressed & too loud in the mix, otherwise it sounds great, & plenty panteraish.

The guitar tone sounds very Pantera-ish. A lot of people love that (not me) I suppose so maybe that's what you're going for? For me it's too much chainsaw/not enough mids.
The drum cymbals sound a bit harsh on the top end as well having real short decay times that are not helping imo.
I wish I could hear the bass guitar more, but that goes for many pro recordings too so whatever there.

Thanks guys that's some valuable input. Pantera is obviously an influence but I was mostly using Fear Factory Genexus as a reference mixing this. I had an idea the guitars might bre a little too loud and scooped. Also the cymbals being a little annoying. I will try to experiment with that stuff a bit. Thanks!
