Very cool, could use some work
This was indeed very epic, and awesome. Awesome sound overall, I love the epic sound of the beginning/1:36-1:48 crashes/stabs. Drumwork was very cool, even if it was just a loop or whatever, still sweet.
Suggestions: I kind of am missing the bassline here. That would sound totally sweet, a deep-ish bass either just pumping along with the rhythm guitar the whole time, or maybe with it's own melody. If there is one, then I'm just not hearing it.
Also, the lead guitar part is really... strange. The one that starts at 0:48, it kind of... transforms into a biting crunchy distortion into like a... Softer kind of jazz distortion. If there was something I would change for sure in the song, that would be it. If you need a better guitar VST or just anything cooler to mess around with, then I'm sure you can find a cool free one on KVRAudio's website. Just KVRAudio.com, they have free synths and stuff that would totally help out.
One more thing, maybe I'm not catching it but it doesn't sound like there is too much variation from the first time through to when the song "repeats" at 1:36. Try giving some variation in the second time through, add in new voices/parts, write a new solo or whatever. Just give it a little something new the second time through.
Awesome job though, keep up the badassness! Hope to see more from ya!
