I agree with Tangmo about lines in that verse. The read a little oddly and that's reinforced by the change in meter of the delivery.
Otherwise it's fabulous.


Thank you!
See my response above on those lyrics.
I think you`re referring to the Bodhran not the drum RT- there are two loops and when they hit the same beat together its quite a thump.

I cannot say which genre this song belongs to, but it is a cool song with the grand story.
I agree with rayc.
It's a well constructed ballad with a great narrative.
The 8-beat bass played throughout the song and the percussion produce something scaring mood. And Scott's guitar excites more scare.
And finally the bell of terror sounds.
It is a wonderful direction.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Shigeki,

I appreciate you highlighting the bass & percussion tracks - they help transform the song from folk to folkrock.
I`m glad you enjoyed this.

Robert

Crazy where inspiration can come from.

Great work and thanks for sharing!


Deryk,
I`ve been a history buff since high school and for some reason ( I hate the cold!) I`m particularly keen on polar exploration stories.
I thought that title would prove attention grabbing!
Thank you for all those positives.

Robert
