Come on people, this is my first finished product, I'm sure there are plenty of things wrong that you can help me fix!!!
 
Hey man...good energy in this one. The instruments are well panned and out of each other's way. Nice arrangement. The drums can maybe use a bit of sparkle...maybe more high end on them, they sound a bit dead. And the rythm section can be a little tighter, sounds like the bass player and drummer aren't always in sync. A few parts sound pretty loose to me, but they sound like they're supposed to be loose, so it's part of the feel.
 
I agree that the drums need something. Bring them up in the mix a bit also. Nothing really wrong with them, they are just quiet. Guitars are kind of buried also. Again, nothing too bad, just a tad quiet for this type of music. The vocals seem to do well. Nice and clean. I'd say, all in all, decent tune. A few issues that might need some attention, but easily a workable song.

Yeah im with Rami in the loose feel of the song. seems to work.
The snare sounds a little distant and the kick is not really noticeable. Try adding more high to the drums as Rami said and a little verb on the kick and snare.
The bass needs volume automated at points as does the vocals, although the group screaming part im impressed with. Sounds nice and tight and controlled in dynamics.
Real good attempt for your first time.

I haven't done any EQ stuff yet, except on the vocals. I'd turn the bass drum up, but the drummer doesn't have a steady beat and it makes the song sound jumbled. I'll crank the guitars. Glad the panning turned out nicely, I was worried about that. I'll do some tweaking after I get a few more suggestions.
