song has killer guitar tones, produced well, and the mix is splendid. vocals are strong. you're a way better guitar player than i will ever be so much respect there.
as for the video....hmmm.... you get an A for effort as it being your first foray into the medium and experimenting with After Effects and greenscreens etc... trust me I know what a colossal project it becomes...but I guess I'm not a huge fan of the 80s metal video genre in general. I mean, quality wise the video is great; but the smoke, fire, hot dancing chick etc. are kinda cliche metal music iconics that have been worn thin and were given a coup de grace with 90s grunge/seattle sound. the silhouetted dancing girl also looks more like she's a cheerleader at a USC football game or at home doing her Wii aerobic workout. however if your goal was to breathe life into the 80s thing well then it is successful from that point, and i know it was a good learning experience nonetheless. i will always love a good metal song and honest effort is all that's important. plus this is just my personal tastes too so it means nothing really as far as how you should feel about your work. i just like bizarre artistic videos in the likes of Radiohead, NIN or even Marilyn Manson.
