Always have to appreciate attempts by DJ's to improve or learn something new. Having said that, I can try to provide you some comments as a casual listener:
The vocals of the track need to extended in range. Not sure if you have a filter on this band, but it seems like upper end of the vocals need to be present more in the mix. Try to separate the vocals from the mids a bit more.
I would also try to bring out the high mids at bit more so that you can hear the cymbals in a more pronounced fashion. Not sure how to put it, but if you "allow" the top end of the vocals to come in more, you'll also notice that cymbals will also be more noticeable. You can use what they call a shelving filter to increase all the frequencies at the high/top end.
I really liked what you did from 0:33 onwards, but try to adjust the snare drums so that they hit harder in the lower frequencies. Your mix really lacks much of anything in terms of bass, so EQing the snare drums more could really help it out.
Glad to see you experimenting with EQing bro - I've really enjoyed most of the concepts you've introduced in previous mixes. Keep at it!
Hope this helps,

I haven't heard the original before, im going off just the mix.
Daman pretty much covered all the basis.
Here are some thing I think you could try:
If you want to keep a little bit of the distortion on the vocals, try using a saturator, that should what you are looking for without sacrificing the mids and lows on the vocals.
You should bring up the "bell" sample a little more, and try to give it a tail. (add a tiny delay, or reverb). I would personally spread it would a little (try a steroizer plug-in).
