Explosions In The Sky - The Only Moment We Were Alone

This is my cover of the song "A Poor Man's Memory" by Explosions in the Sky.  I tried to keep it minimal, but it is a typical explosions in the sky song in that it has a very cinematic, and overproduced sound to it. There are 5 tracks in total: 3 guitar tracks, one MIDI bass and MIDI drum track imported from the Guitar Pro tabulature software.

GEAR:
-Guitar: Fender Parts-Caster (2011 MIM standard strat body, 2003 Fender Deluxe Roadhouse maple neck, American Texas Special pups from an 70's era MIA lefty strat, Fender Locking tuners, Graph Tech string saddles and nut, copper shielded pup cavity. 
-Amp: Fender Superchamp XD 15 Watt Tube Amp. This bad boy was recently discontinued and replaced with the SC X2, but I swear this amp is much, much better than the X2. 
-Recording: I used a Presonus Audiobox USB 2x2 interface with the included Presonus Studio One Software. I highly recommend this DAW/interface if you're just starting out!!! (http://www.guitarcenter.com/PreSonus-AudioBox-USB-2X2-USB-Recording-System-104841978-i1388074.gc)
