You need to bring the recording levels down a whole lot, because your tracks are clipping out. You can always boost the volume at a later point when it's mixed down. It makes anything post-distort sound really muffled and you can't make out the guitar line, which is a nice part, although I think you'd benefit from running a drum beat underneath it so it all stays in time. You can always remove it afterwards. There's a good free software drum machine called hammerhead which is good to use as a metronome.
Bezerker, your kit set up there is really good already! I know bands that have recorded things with less good equipment than that. When you get your full set up working, I'll imagine it'll nearly rival a proper studio. Instead of going for a multiple input soundcard, why not buy a mixer? Behringer make a cheap one I think which is meant to be great for home recording. Cubase is a good programme, but I choose personally to run a simple recording programme called Ntrack along with Soundforge for .wav editing, and as for inputs I tend to improvise. The track posted above was recorded by first running a d.i'd 10w practise amp to the pc for the guitars and the vocals. I think it sounds pretty good myself for what it is. My top tip would be to never run effects from a digital multi-pedal and instead either manipulate the tracks using software or use analogue seperate pedals. The sound quality is so much better.
