Some tepid riffs opened things up. Drum patterns sound entirely too placeholder-ish and boring. The drums definitely don't drive the song along at all. Two guitars, bass, and drums should be enough to fill out a track, but this one's pretty empty.

Source melody finally comes in at :32 and goes for a short shot before repeating at :48, and again at 1:04, the next couple of times with minor embellishments. The whole thing is markedly plodding and uninteresting so far. For such a short song, you need to develop things a lot faster.

1:36 goes off on some original riffing with the rhythm section liberally playing the source. For 2:28-long, this sure felt like it was a lot longer but nonetheless still had very little to say. There's no hook here and the arrangement is boring. Wish I could be more enthusiastic about it.

These guitars sound quite thin, and the drums don't help to fill out the texture either. The drum pattern is very bland and as Liontamer said, plods along. The guitar pattern is very stiff and sounds as overly quantized and inhuman as the drums. There is no life in this, doesn't come up to OC standard.

this is a great idea. with some reworking this could be an awesome remix. unfortunately the execution is a little vanilla. i dont mind the drum patterns as much as the drum samples, which are too thin. need to be fatter, more compressed to kick the shit out of the mix. etc.

the guitar work is just too straightforward and repetitive right now. needs a little more interpretation, and a little more life. also needs to be longer.

keep working on this, it will be good.
