I like it, but I can't give you much other feedback other than to say; Yes, the drums do need some work as they are a little dull.

I updated the song. The drumline is still a bit dull, but doesnt sound as cheesy. I also added a "take-off" at the end. Is it too much, though?

It sounds really nice so far, my only complaint would be the lead is a bit of an ear acher on the high notes, but that's just me being picky. Overall i think it's pretty good.

Put the song through a high band-pass filter (or do some EQ on the high end) and it'd be a lot cleaner.

I do like the variations on a theme you did there about midway through the song.

This song has a lot of potential. Keep working on it. :D

Good to hear. :)

I do agree that the high-note on the lead is a bit ear-aching. Im not sure, in a technical way, how to fix that without changing the instrument altogether (I like it when its not ear-aching). :p

I'll try out some stuff and report back with the result.
