I dig the solo, and love the tone. In the overall mix on that song, I think you are pretty buried, however. On Dark Weave, I think the mix with you is better, IMO.

So they deleted the tracks, recorded the album again in a week and released that.
The lesson, no recording is ever likely to be perfect and if it is, you probably wont like it.

Also, as mentioned above, you have to draw the line somewhere or you can never finish anything.

I wouldn't change it.
I agree with other posters that the mix might be a bit muddied and that the 2nd song mix is better. |

But the solo itself sounds good. Even, dare I say, BITCHIN'
