As a whole, the track was very nice. There were some great powerful melodies in the track. My suggestion for you is to make the drums crisper. They sound flattened right now. Also, the bass could be a bit sharper at times.
I really liked what you did at 2:50. The strings were great. However, you stop them early, and then repeat the loop 2 or 3 times. Instead, you could have fleshed out a longer melody with the strings.
Well, there is my criticism. Hope it helps. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed the song. In fact, that's the reason I'm suggesting all these changes.

"Someone's having too much fun with Garage Band..."
Ugh, garage band loops. Meshing a bunch of these loops together does not make good music. Next time, don't let the program make all the music for you.

I have to say, your music is amazing! I've heard all your songs, and they're all great!

Here are the problems:
The piano has WAY too much delay. It's hard to hear the individual notes.
The synth that comes in is quiet and weak.
The drum intro sounds strange.
The drums and piano don't sound good together.
You didn't do anything special with the melody.
The song sounds too frantic.
Maybe this will help for any songs you make in the future.

Everything about this piece is amazing! You've got more than a dozen different parts to the song, each fast-paced and exciting. There is SO much effort here. Listening to it, I felt like it was a hardcore/energetic version of all of your different songs combined. I heard traces of Emotion Locomotion, Glorious Morning, and more. And I agree with my brother Sebby64 below that the string piece in the middle was amazing!

I got Mega Man 9 about a week ago, so naturally I imagine playing the game as I'm hearing this song. I think the melody is great, and that's what's most important in an 8-bit song!

Great song. I especially liked the transition to the more acid part in the middle. Keep making songs like this, impact, and the other heavy ones.

I like the instruments you chose and the dark d'n'b elements, but I feel the song ends up going nowhere.

During the first half of the song I imagined the difficulty the tank man was having trying to climb those sound hills.
On a more serious note, I found your song inspiring. It left a profound impact on my mood today.

I've always wanted to use this song in an animation, until I realized I didn't have the patience to complete one.
