Clipping going on in the intro, intro kick and snare are weak, choose other sounds.
The intro and the main part seem to be 2 totally different tracks.
Not bad overall, but it doesn't catch me. The problem is bassline I guess, it doesn't have any uproaring capabilities and the piano sounds way to official for the steaming amen drums. If you go for an action packed tune, avoid piano imo.

Nice tune, loved the drums, liked the intro but not sure if you should substitute the piano-like noise for something a bit more edgier further along the track, wicked though.

I really like this track man. The intro doesn't really suit it, but the rest sounds great. I really like the mastering you did on it, and overall it's just pretty sweet.

intro is pretty nice, kick and clear could use some boosting tho, to bring em out a little more, break pattern is a little wierd aswell,
drop is pretty nice, bass could use some more grit to it tho, kinda sits back in the mix, maybe a tad more distortion and some eq on other elements would make some more room for it to pump through.
piano/ bell sound doesn't fit the track at all, sounds really out of place.
drums are pretty banging, snare has got lush snap to it, just doesn't come through enough.
some nice amen work too, helps things along nicely.
good work overall, structurly a little messy but not bad at all.

Agree with the other comments made. The piano is actually very nice but the sound of it doesn't really fit the vibe of this tune. To remedy that, all you'd need to do is replace the sound with something more edgy and keep the patterns and melodies.
I'm really enjoying this track mate, I love the melodies. The beats are good but a little noisy for me, plus they've got too many mids in them I reckon.
Structure is a little hap-hazard, like Seph said.
But overall, this is very good I reckon. I enjoyed it!

Pretty nice sounds... interesting melodies. Change-ups keep the tune interesting. Tempo may be a tad high for my taste.

Whoah! Brilliant
Really interesting lead synth, i like it as well as the break loop.
As mentioned before you might want to consider building up the volume in the beginning of the track, but keep it up like this!
