Hey Shaz, I think this track is coming along great. Nice melodic progression with some cool shred licks aroun 3/4 way in. The drums are fine IMO, keep the beat and roll in the sections nicely. That EZ Drummer or DFHS? Re the Satch influence, yeah I hear that alright but am happy to say you don't sound like a Satch clone.... too many guys trying to sound exactly like him without getting a style of their own - which you have. I reckon it sounds cool, will definitely check out the finished track.
