I made this little song and i want opinions on it, i don't own Podfarm so i can't do anything like that, just let me know what you think, especially in the mixing aspect of things. I am just trying to learn as much as i can, i'm still quite a novice so constructive criticism is helpful, not just bashing me for how bad my mix is. thanks guys.

-kick is too clicky
-snare too dry
-guitar's sound out of tune, too weak, lacking energy and punch
-OH/Cymbals sound found
-no energy or power overall in the whole mix

EDIT: You said "i don't own Podfarm so i can't do anything like that."....what? you don't need pod farm dude. Just mic your amp in a certian way. Position it to the way it gets the power and punch.
 
Guitars are aight, but i'd edit them and make em a little tighter
Other than that drums are my complaint
Takes practice
Also I'd invest in the $100 slate package pretty quick and a sturgis cymbal pack. It will really help.
 
thank you both very much. ive heard both of those things are awesome so i might invest. and ill keep practicing.
