Loved it.


Thanks Mario,
Wish we had something more uplifting to sing about.

Thoughtful and provoking.

The choice of a minor melodic suits this perfectly, and the steady rhythmic backing enforces the underlying message.

Thanks for listening and commenting Scott.
Tried to keep the groove simple, wasn't aiming for the "Doors" vibe.
I guess a few of my recent songs seem to find their way in that direction.

Thank you for giving it a listen.
Yes, I wanted a constant drone to emphasize the relentless attack.
The world would be a beautiful place is is wasn't for the people.

Nothing to say that hasn't been said.

A very effective song - lyrically and instrumentally.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

It's been said here, a Doors' vibe.
Good song, but sad.

Hi Moto,

I liked this song immediately, dark, threatening and here very strong!
Good vocals and a very good band. Who you want to sacrifice still pounding in my head, but I'm a bit obsessed by this cruel war.
I feel mightyless, but with that guy WWIII is in reach!

As I said, a very good song and I enjoyed it much!

Hey Hans,
Thanks for listening and adding your comments.

This situation is so sickening, millions of people displaced, thousands dead and wounded, cities destroyed, all as we watch.
Providing some aid is noble but, it's not ending the rolling disaster.
I'm afraid we will all be drawn in soon.

I cannot wrap my mind around such cruelty.

"I'm a complete novice at BIAB" Well couldn't be at a better place to hone the skill! smile

Well done and the message is driven home in heart thumping Doors like manner indeed.

Depressingly timely ... unfortunate that it has to be so.

Well done.

Reminds me of Sky's Edge Richard Hawley.
I was expecting an eruption...unmet expectations are a good tension developer.
The vocal over on the left was slightly odd but works.


Cheers

Thanks for giving it a listen Ray and thanks for reminding me about Richard Hawley.........I like his work but, he slips of my radar.
Regarding the left leaning vocals: Just an artistic decision....maybe good maybe bad.

Thanks again

The limited instruments adds to the overall eerie feel and adds to the underlying tension.

Well done. I enjoyed the song immensely.

Moto,

Great work on this one. Has a cool 60’s psychedelic vibe to it, but still fresh and compelling. Like the choice of panning the vocal to the left with that stellar cello-like sound panned right. Well done!

Best regards,

Deej

Thanks for listening Ezekiel.

It's pretty simple, intentionally so.
