I don't think much of the singer, sounds as if he's struggling to hold the notes. He seems caught between shouting and singing, and as a result does neither. The production and the playing are pretty tight. I don't really care for the style, and I don't like the distortion the guitarist is using, sounds like an effects rack, rather than a pedal.
It's all pretty derivative, the chorus, the bridge the breakdown. Reminds a bit of the Delgado’s. I reckon if you're going to rock it should be simpler. I hate the ending, what's the drummer doing? Sounds as if he's learnt a new beat and is desperately trying to fit it in. I'd prefer a riffier/heavier ending rather than whatever's going on.
Why don't you try some effects on the vocals like Dark Star. It'll break up the monotony and give his voice a hand.
