I dig it.
Do you have plans to add vocals to your tracks or are you keeping them instrumental?

It's a bit repetitive, But I definitely enjoy it!

You need to equalize your drums // Get rid of the clipping!

I haven't mixed it yet, and it'll seem less repetitive when I add the vocals.  I promise.

Hard, I like it.
I know it's unmixed, but maybe chuck a compressor/limiter on the track before export? Should make sure nothings peaking, etc.
Keep it up!

I dig it, it would be cooler with heavier chugs though. What are you using to produce?

I'm using noteflight.com to make all of my midi files, the for my DAW i use FL Studio 10.  Also, I'm buying a DI box soon so I can record real instruments and record vocals, guitar will be doing all of the breakdowns, I tried to replicate it on FL studio, but it's simply not doing my breakdowns any justice.  And thanks for the advice about the compressor/limiter...I'm very new to this, I just started like a month ago, so any advice helps!

Pretty nice stuff for a month's worth. Limiters are great because you can set them to just under 0db and nothing will peak smile
