The only slight complaint I have is perhaps lay off the screaming lyrics. Don't stop screaming.. just don't scream through 95% of the song. I wanna hear more riffs!
I know you said "Don't stop believin'" on their
journey, but do you think they might be better doing an instrumental? Or in the alternative, something with very few words, like "Tequila" by The Champs? Entirely different genre, but in that song, that's the only word sung, at the high points. I'll include it here as you may never have heard it. Now, do you think doing a reduced word composition like that might be better? To do it in the "death/metal" theme, the guy could scream forms of execution: gas chamber... electric chair... hanging... piano wire... burning tire... That sort of thing. Even name the song "Death Penalty."
I also did listen to all of the song. Per ICJ's request, I'll not state my opinion, other than to say it slavishly follows the first rule of heavy metal, and it just wasn't my cup of tea.
Anyway, here's the song
Tequila so you can get the idea of what I'm suggesting. It's almost a complete instrumental otherwise.
