Some comments/suggestions: The voice placement and presence are fine. New recordists tend to undermix their vocals when they should be more up-front, but I like where the voice is in this mix. The drums are under-recorded. The part is fine, but it should either have a different sound (i.e. a different kit) or more presence in the mix. Or both. Bass could use a wee bit more presence. I like the lyrics. :) A little dirtier sound might be appropriate for the style, but I'm not sure how you'd achieve that effect.
