The drums sound really boxy, especially the snare. It dosen't have the punch it should for a song like this.

The singer's top end is a bit brittle.

The piano sounds really muffled. If this is intentional, that's cool, but it's a bit much I think. I would like to hear a "drummed down, smashed to bits" piano sound.

The dist guitars are a bit thin sounding.

The left tom sticks out quite a bit.

The Cymball's don't seem to have space between. It's almost like the OH's are mono..

The bass needs to be tighter. The songs lacking the power it could have because the bass is just kinda hanging there.

Regarding the performances. I think the drums fit the song. The singer is performing well for the song, but it's not being recorded/mixed like it should. Guitars seem ok aside from the tone thing.

The arrangement is a bit different.
