wow, that sucks that no one's rated this...i saw your cry for help and decided to check it out. hmm this is pretty nice i used vocals from the WWII era once...pretty nice melody you've got there...and the beat sorta reminds me of doc scott..that drop around 2:10 is pretty good, you might wanna pan that siren around jus for fun..i like the flanger beat u mixed in with the normal one there but u might wanna balance them out jus a little bit more..really love the little 3:43 drop and the mixed beats after that are really great, probably my favorite part. overall, i'd say a 4/5 melody 3/5 beat but you need more fx to spice it up even tho those vox you have are pretty cool and the siren is good. you also didn't drag the song on too long, which was good. hey i liked it tho, and its a shame no one got back to you sooner. peace

Intro is ok, but not great.
The vocal sounds quite dry, give it just a tiny bit of delay and reverb
Nice sub, OK drums.
Drop: Allright tramen, not sure about the square stuff. Quite nice melody, but too cheesy for DnB imo
The layering with the cold sweat break could be done a bit better.
Some nice idears, but a bit abrupt transitions and weird combinations.
2/5 for the track
1.75/5 for the sound

it's a nice song.
the intro really sets a good tone.
always love the doomsday siern.
it's missing something, just doesn't sound 100%. who knows why. never really get's a full sound maybe.

intro is ok imo.....only bring the vocal up a bit and use some fx on it (i agree with surya that it's to 'dry' now)
Drums lack a bit of punch imo(at 2:04 a step snare commes in before little breakdown....lose it or integrate it better)....squares after little break needs work to.....they are a bit to 'fluffy' imo.airsiren is a bit 'a cliche' imo (have it sitting here somewhere but never use it).
Good elements in this one...work more on yr mix. Yr beats should be more 'upfront' imo (like the main step-kick-snare in the beginning and the end-outro)
Track needs a lot of work but could turn out nice...

Very nice idea....definately a very nice idea. The sound is a little lacking, needs to be puffed out. I don't know what you use to produce so I can't give you any specific advice, but I can give you some generalized advice about adding a little bit of delay and reverb to your sounds in order to fill them out. Maybe a little bit of some EQ on that tramen in order to pull up the highs, fill out the mids, and beef up the mid-lows. It's a really good track though, you just need to work on your sound.

I would say that the drums are too quiet. Too much of base in it and too much of speech. The speech is dominating so it just make me nervous. 
Maybe the baseline is good
But i didn`t liked the mixing of the drums from the begginig, and afterwards. First it was too loud and then the drums became too quiet 
If i had to rate this from 1-10 i would rate it 3
