Very interesting tune here (but not in the bad way!) I was a little lost in the first couple of minutes but then you start to see where the song is going. I think as Evolve says, the concept is good but the distortion on the various synths needs to be cleaned up just enough to fix some of the EQ issues without losing that nice raw flavour the track has.
That sample that comes in at 2:20 (sounds to me like a snare with some heavy distortion on it) really sounds like it doesn't belong and it muddies up your kickdrum so the track loses some of its punch. When it cuts out at 2:48 and the track winds down into the breakdown, its like a breath of fresh air! If you wanna keep it, I'd suggest bringing its level down or EQ'ing out some of its lower end (or a bit of both).
The pads and ambience sound so nice from 2:48 to 3:03 that its almost a shame to lose them, although I can see how they would soften the effect of that harsh lead which comes in. I personally am not a fan of the lead, could be a little cleaner, although i must admit it sounds better through good speakers than through headphones. I love the reverb shuffle effect you've got going with the percussion, I use that technique a lot myself, it really adds energy and depth
