I'm gonna get straight to it.

The song is very basic (ok-sounding still) but the only real bad part is the drums.

1. Did you use multi sampled drums? Because it sounds like you didn't.

2. The way you use the snare is boring, mix it up a bit, listen to drum variations from 70 rock bands.

3. The part at 1:21 is horrible. The crash cymbals sound extremely synthetic and also the rhythm is just annoying.

You wrote in the youtube comment that you dislike the ending, I think you pulled it of.

Hope I helped in some way, happy tracking. Smile

I hate doing the drums so badly Sad
I'm not sur what 'multi'-sampled drums are, so i'm assuming i didn't use them, so i'll look into that. I'll try and improve the rhythm, thanks for your advice, i clearly need it.

In my opinion, the crash is a "bit" overused. I like the piece somehow, but i think synthetic guitars are always a problem. they never sound really natural...
