Some cool fast strumming to start and fast drums. I like the panning of the vocals and the way the quality of them is good, though i aint in to growling. Some cool guitaring, and the main riff is reasonably originall. The sung bit is maybe a little whiny and strained, but it's nice to have variety. Maybe structure it more. Have bits of sung vocals after some growled verses.

I dig it. My favorite part was probably the guitar solo/bridge with phil anselmo-like vocals/brief solo part after the 2nd(?) verse. That kicked ***. The mix sounded a little harsh to me, but I couldn't put my finger on why or how I would go about fixing it. However, it still sounded pretty clear and I could hear all the instruments. Also, this may be somewhat due to the fact that I was listening on it through your myspace player (myspace sound quality suckz, imo) on my headphones (albeit a very good set of headphones). Anyway, I was impressed. The first few bars of music didn't really catch my attention but this song really caught fire as it progressed. Nice job.
Which instrument do you play? Also, nice avatar/banner combo. Thuggish.

I love the guitar work. You guys seem to be pretty tight too - always a plus. The stereo spread on the vocals made him sound like he wasn't part of the band in the mix. Try using a high frequency spread on the whole mix, not just vocs. Also, double the guitars. If you're using a digital recorder, all you need do is copy the guitars onto new tracks and move them over by a few miliseconds. This will make them huge! And for a fat drum sound, have a second mix that is incredibly compressed and bring them up just under the non-compressed drums.
Sorry, I've been a recording engineer for years, so I tend to focus mostly on the mix. These can be very useful tricks for your mix though. Play with them and see if you like the sound.
