not bad you have a pretty usable guitar tone but the drums are bland.

Thank you Habsburgs, I do appreciate it..yeah I need to do something better with the drums honestly...think I may find someone with an acoustic kit and get them to actually lay drums down.

sounds good
try to use more compression on drum buss and turn down cymbals a little bit - that's my opinion
