You're getting better 
This sounds like typical good industrial I've heard for so many years, the problem is that this genre is dead for the most part ...will you have any kind of decent listener base if your works not in a popular genre? Does it matter? Do you care?
Personally I pull from all genres, which doesn't always make for great music, just maybe more original music.
Keep it up.

Genres are bollocks really - just a way of organising record shops.
Good track. Don't know what else to say really.

I agree with Danny about genres, they're good for sales but for artists that don't fit genres it's bullshit.

Like minded on that one! ... Genres are a broad description for what you're gonna get! Yeah, not bad Hellscion; I like the distorted snares you're huckin. Especially some of the fills you make are really cool.
I can't hear any panning though where you've got some great opportunities to do it; not that it's really important but it most of the time throws the listener back and forth- for an industrial-like effect, I'd use some mild panning for all those percussive mixes and lead synth lines.
But progresses really groovy!

Yes, it needs more stereo image.
I really like the slowed down crunchy beats. Some cavernous reverb hits might sound nice.
I felt it lacked a center-piece - something to focus on. Initially for me that was the beats. I like the minimal synths. I don't know... This just needs a touch of something and I feel it could be more than a 'good track'. I like the retro-sounding-ness of it.

Well, ill give that a try however ummmm anyone ever get a song to a certain point that youre scared to alter it for fear of screwing something up? heh, yea.. anyways, i had a theory about panning which is why i dont really do a whole lot with it (and im not just making an excuse to support my ego..). RIGHTTT. You see.. panning effects and glitch-work are similar in that.. at their very best they are things you dont even notice. Then consider playing music in a club at higher volume levels.. most elements of the song disappear except that which stands out the most - namely bass and leads. Alas though, since both of you pointed out something about panning im forced to take this into consideration 
Aye. thanks to everyone for taking the time to listen and i appreciate the feedback, kylo & absurd.

I like the dirty sound, it even sounds good on the mono-speaker of my PC.
(So I can't say anything about the panning at this moment).....

Yeah, good point about the clubbing aspect... But... do you really want to make music for all those drunk asses?
Where ever you play this track- it needs pan with

haha.. im trying to figure out if there is a deeper message to the green eggs and ham..
anyways, i didnt but considering im trying to make techno music for a living.. the club is the best route. and requires me to alter my style a bit. i dunno.. i will always make music for techno nerds on the internet on the side ;)

Its a meaty track! Very angry
I'm liking this, its got a nice industrial mood going on with it, (I'm not getting into that genre conversation, I say like I see it ) Liking the whole buzzing synth thing, the melodies are nice and floaty in an evil sort of way.
Its sounding cool on my monitors, everything sounds in its right place, nicely mixed. The only thing I'd say is that it needs a layer of mastering polish to really give it the oomph it deserves. For such an angry, evil sounding song...it lacks punch. Its got all the elements I reckon...just needs to hit you in the chops more.
Cheers,
Pete
