An S.S.H inspired track I made; I'm pretty pleased with the counter/support lines, but I think the structure leaves some coherence to be desired and most of the transitions are pretty jarring/ungraceful. If anyone has some words about this, I'm very interested in them.

Maybe if you use some sort of lead guitar part to help transition into the sections, or use some break down elements to buffer between sections. Make the sections a bit longer. I really like this. You don't /really/ have to change anything. But it is lacking coherence between sections. Sounds like a montage.

what kind of transitions does s.s.h use? are they something you feel you can use?

Basically what Sketchman said. Some of these phrases/riffs could definitely be longer.
It seems like for the most part you've got every instrument going all the time, I like to drop down to only 1 or 2 instruments during some transitions to kind of wind up before I drop the hammer. It's all about building and releasing tension.
Also, could use a solo midway through.

kfaraday - I REALLY SHOULD HAVE STUDIED THAT BEFORE MAKING THIS thank you those are good questions to ask
SketchMan3 and RatShack these are good suggestions, thank you. Could either of you give example songs with the kinda things you're talking about?

Idk, listen to Slayer - Angel of Death or Raining Blood, Carcass - Heartwork, Megadeth - Holy Wars or Hangar 18.
