metal clip (work in progress) - criticism appreciated

[Santuzzo]

Hi,

This is a bunch of riffs I have been working on the past months. I already posted some of these riffs, but I added new stuff trying to make a song out of this.

I know the playing still needs to be tighter, drum programming and mix still need tons of work, too. (and of course, I still need to add leads and some more riffs)

Tell me what you think. I always appreciate constructive criticism.

here's the clip:

EDIT:

here's a new mix, I also used different drums on this:

Thanks,

I'm not really happy with the drum sound, I think I will try a new mix of this with EZDrummer DFH and post it for comparison.

You have a lot of low end that buries everything. Try cleaning that up a bit.

I just added a new version in my OP with different drums and improved mix.

Let me know if the 2nd mix is better.

Thanks
