Right now it's instrumental but we plan on getting a vocalist soon. Please let me know what y'all think!

It's always hard for me to properly gauge a song without vocals, as they really help add color and variety (when done right, at least). Overall, not bad. I would say get rid of just a touch of mid range in the guitar tone (to get rid of the kind of "honk" sound it has) and add just a bit more body, more low end. Not much, as you don't want to drown out the bass or anything, but I would add just a tiny bit more, for thickness. Also, the drums are too quiet. The kick has a nice click to it, though.

I dig it for sure. I liked "Fight For Your Death" a lot more, but this one is cool too. I'd love to front you guys.

The song seems a bit too midpaced for me. Some of the riffs would sound a lot more interesting if the overall energy of the song was carried by a quicker tempo. And the drumming could use more variation. I'd love to hear this with vocals though, keep working on it !
