Yeah, can see why you disowned the track...
Nah, only joking mate, though I understand your sentiments - often when I write something I find not to my taste, I just leave it to fester and hope I'll come back to it (usually a dirt bassline or dark drone does the trick!)
As for the tune - intro - could be sample used, some are slightly dodgy with background noise or something that appears if you compress the track in mastering or perhaps the saved version of the tune has screwed around with the panning or envelope settings (I problem I've encountered periodically)?
Anyways, there is some really nice percussion going on, plus the lead melodies and I really like the one that comes in at 2:14.
Not sure which are the premade riffs (since I never use any), but it seems to me you wrote all the strongest stuff in the track, so good work!

@Coordman - Good point! I only ever heard 'Birdhouse In Your Soul', but really liked it. (Don't think the band were ever that big in the UK.) Reminds me of UK group 'The La's' whose tune 'There She Goes' gets played anywhere and everywhere as its assumed to just be about a woman, but is (pretty obviously) about drugs! (NB I just checked Wickipedia and apparently it was covered recently by Sixpence None The Richer.)

So, I'm having a terrible time with the NIN track I promised to post. Here's the situation: My PS2 is situated downstairs from my PC. I record by running a 3/4 inch plug cable from the rca output on my PS2 to the input on my PC. This, unfortunately, creates an electronic buzz on my recordings.

Now, usually, I can remove the buzz no problem using Audacity's noise removal plugin. This time however, there are so many silent and bassless parts in the track, I'm having a hard time striking a balance between not removing enough noise and removing too much fidelity from the higher end sounds. AAARRGH!

I will post this track soon, I promise, I'm just losing a wrestling match for the moment. If worse comes to worse, I'll just post the old version of it. Sorry for the delay, Zodiac.

Congrats Eddy :) . Well deserved mate , one of the things I've always admired about your work Eddy was the production skills. You seem to be able to know right from the start of the track , the samples to use , how louds , the effects and where to pan them to achieve the overall sound you were looking for.
And pretty much how Rob stated , how with that crisp sound made some truly brilliant , kick-ass melodies.
Also the work you put into commenting on all tracks no matter the genre.
I dunno what else to say about you mate without the others thinking we're gonna buy cowboy hats and bugger off camping.
But yeah lol , Very good choice Rob & congratulations again Eddy.

Glad I can be the first to offer congrats, Eddy - well deserved! I've been enjoying digging through the back catalogue and will definitely listen to the others mentioned.
