Feel free to point and laugh. Took me ages, as my skills are almost as excellent as my equipment. It's of course vocalless, song choice based on its almost instrumental character. Choiry parts were made with one of Guitar Rig 2 patches (big hall/dirty, bit tweaked). It's also slower than album original (but it's OK I guess, live version is also slower).

I actually really like it! Could have been a tad faster, but it's really cool sounding!

Well, you already warned us :P
It's not that bad actually, I've heard a lot worse covers than this.
I recognise all the Guitar Rig sounds; I use it myself, but just for practising. I can't get it to work as a plug-in (probably because I'm a cheapass and downloaded it).
ANyway, on to the comments...

There's a little too much gain in the main riff. This will always make your guitar sound kinda messy.
I like the drums actually; not the sound, but the way you programmed them.
The tempo is not a problem for me; there's a couple of notes missing, but otherwise, nice job.

I liked it... though the choir bits were a bit louder than I would've liked (sounded like they were overpowering the guitar on my speakers), otherwise pretty good. :)

Actually, Guitar Rig is used only on choiry parts - it's not terribly practical for me if it works only on already recorded tracks. So main riff are "high gain" and "recto" models off cheap digitech RP100 - I have permanent problems with setting some nice sound with it. Gain is reduced compared to factory programmed presets which were usually set to 100% gain (damn thing get you used to superhighgain), but I see that's still too much. Ton of delay probably doesn't help either. Thanks for advice!

I hate mixing, everytime something is too loud or too quiet. I always have feeling that volume sliders lack precision. And I guess that familiarizing with compressor could help - here I used only some simple limiter plugin with one knob, because it's simple enough for me :)

I thought it was aces, man. Had you the proper motivation, you could have really nailed the tonal quality of it; the groundwork you laid is proof of that.

Awesome, I don't like the drum sound much though. Sequenced, right?

Yes, samples from Natural Studio's ns7free drumkit sequenced in handy little thing called LeafDrums.
