I like the screams. I think for tracks to do well, they always need some kind of thing that people can talk about a sort of trade mark, and that works nicely.
Beats are good and its all pretty menacing and edgy. But as the guy said, not anywhere near enough bass at all. Try and get some dillinja style bass going on, and you will have a real nice track there.

Nice track:-)
Like the basground sounds...
But yeah the base is somehow low...
Like the filtering on the saw synth....
Interesting drums....
The screams are pretty good...
I think that the pause somwherin thr middle ( 2min..) is too long....
Could use some more variations in the patterns

Spooky intro, but not too dark - perfect for the suprising drop. Nice badass attitude - no horsing around needed for this drop. Great equing on the main bass line - heavy but does need a bass boost. Straight forward simple style - but this tracks pounds! The addition of the hi mid sound is cool but it does interfere a bit with the main line. I don't really like the fragmented beat in the drop out. Love the filtered bring back - filtering could be even more aggressive. Bongos are a nice addition but the drums could use another element to keep it interesting in the second half - even something as simple as doubling up the hats would work. Fade out ending works - you should use that little variation used right at the end and ones like that throughout the track. Again, a straightforward solid track and the one note driving bass works really well, but melodically it could use a big tension breaking reece sweep (two different notes maybe) backed by a big filtered amen part perhaps. The akuma(?) break could use some accompaniment and the sound could use some tweaking. 7+/10 for now but this could be a 10 with some minor adjustments.

Intro is quite cool.
Drop: Quite cool bassline, but it lacks bass. Kick should kick more too. Snare smashes nicely but could use some more punch.
That sweeping stuff is nice, but it's a bit dull how you introduce it. Try finding a more elegant way to do that.
Overall I would say that it's a bit repetetive due to the small number of elements and that the sound needs quite some work, it doesn't sound big and phat enough.
