Yeah..its working.

And 5 seconds in..AWE$SOME!

1 min in...this is great..absolutely great.

2 mins The mix is too clean...this could live with being mad skuzzy sounding.

Shave off the top end..its too bright..clear out the mids a bit and squash it hard.

Its not loud enough by a long chalk.You're trying to squeeze too much through the tube.

Great tune and great performance though..so yer halfway there

OK, thanks.

Shave off highs, and compress, that's what you're saying. Will look into it. Thanks again.

i reckon it sounds great man. I wouldn't make this any louder to be honest. This "brick wall limiting/compression" to try and get the song's volume as "perceivably loud" as possible is part of the loudness war mentality. At the end of the day, CD players, Mp3 players, car stereos, etc. have volume dials, we can just turn it up if we want it louder.
