    Actually both of them sounds cool, you can use both for intro, at first put A and after 8 bars replace for B with the same drums from A.

    Late to the game here bro, but A.
    More character..? I think. It just played with my head more.

    Nevermind, you picked already. Good choice, too.

    A. Is a more old school style mix

    B. Sounds more modern

    A. Mix quality sound rounder, fuller, but a tiny slight bit muddier

    B. Mix quality is cleaner, but with less bass and a bit too much highs. Not as round sounding as A.

    I would ease up the bass guitar mid bass EQ area with A.

    With B. tone down the highs and add a bit more bass and sub bass and I guess I would love B. a bit more then.

    B has grown on me.
    Now it's B.

    I know this doesn't help.

    Okay, so after listening to the wav files with A. try about -3db at 119Hz with a Q of 2
    With B. try +1.5db at 57Hz with a Q of 1.3, -1db at 158Hz with a Q of 3 and -2.5db at around 12.2KHz with a Q of 2.

    For my taste this way both mixes sound a bit more balanced.

    However, B sounds very clean to me even with the tamed 12.2 KHz. A. is still even after the -3 db at 119Hz a bit muddy especially listening to it after B.

    I like B very much!
    Otherwise very nice work on both! Congrats!
