Hi DC Ron,

I have listened to this multiple times - my thoughts are below. I recognise the time, effort and talent all the contributors have put into this. Sorry if you feel any of the negative comments are harsh or unjustified. Thanks a lot for posting the song.

Overall impression
I like a bit of what they used to call ‘power pop’ (Cars etc) so first impressions were favourable. After 5 full listens, still quite like the song.
Song (structure, message, lyrics …)
Don’t really get the message of the song I’m afraid – perhaps because I’m from the UK where no one above the age of 5 drinks milk!
To my ear, the lyrics is also hampered by some unconvincing rhymes (control / dull ?). In fact some parts of the lyrics are pretty much incomprehensible, notably the Component / Condone it couplet.
In terms of the composition, I like both the ‘A’ and the ‘B’ sections. The bridge section starts well enough but seems to tail off.
Don’t much like either the solo after the ‘la la la la’ section or the outro lick.
Instrumentation
The guitars all sound good and sit together well.
The drum track sounds a little busy to me.
Vocals
Really liked the lead vox and the effects on them. The harms are well selected and not overused.
What I really liked
Nice groove – musically the song is pleasant to listen to.
The playing and the mix are both excellent.
What could be improved
Lyrics and message are a bit lost on me I’m afraid.
Tweaks could be made to optimise the structure of the song
