Its a good tune - kind of overly compressed for my taste - is they any reverb on the lead singer? The guitar and drums are not quite in sync - although is that your syle?
Were the drums in a box or a Drummer?

Agreed that the drums are ever so slightly off from the guitar riff. But its not enough to be "bad", it can come across as a deliberate stylistic choice. But it is worth pointing out.

It does rock. Its a great track for sure.

Appreciate you having a listen, and commenting.
I didn't specifically intend for the drums to be "slightly off" from the guitars necessarily.
I did intend to experiment with the drums being on the beat while the guitars/bass laid back ever so slightly.
It is much more common for me to intentionally have the drums lay back a spec, as that was a quality of my long time drummer, band mate and writing partner's style.
All that being said, you are correct, I'm a smidgen off time a spot or two.

The guitars and bass are recorded straight DI
I used Neural DSP Parallax for the Bass
Guitars are Amplitube 5 with a Mesa and a Marshall blended together
