There's no missing the pain and hopelessness in these lyrics, that said, a very good write, great vocals and I love that acoustic.
With much of the world on fire, this is quite current. Thanks so much, Thumper!

Hi Scott,
A very good song in all perspective: the vocals, the band sand the song as a whole!
You really sing with full conviction, still the song sounds familliair as being a genuine Ezekiel!
The lyrics are clever written, the language a bit a challenge for me to understand it all (but I have Google!)
And I think it's the time of year that we see/hear all these sunny lyrics. I thought mine were dark, but Jannice and Bud were close.
Then came Brain with his f-word song and now you, even with a burning city on your cover!
And for the band; I liked the chord progression and how the acoustic guitars do their work. Lovely, or ace (as Ray calls it)!
I really enjoyed it al,
Hans Thanks, Hans. I happy to hear you enjoyed the song.

This is powerful!
The intensity of your vocal, the grunge guitars and the minor chord sections all contribute to the ominous feeling of the lyric.
Great dynamics and mix too!
We especially liked:
“I am living on the upside of down
No signs and wonders left to be found” and also
“Pray to your patron saints
Of chaos, greed, and destruction”
Well done and have a great holiday season!

Ezekiel's Storm,
The lyrics are a bit difficult for me to understand, but I can really feel the dark side atmosphere.
Your vocals add the unique taste to it more.
It's very moody and mysterious.
It makes us get nervous when that the chord progression doesn't quite move towards the tonic chord, but it's very effective.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Shigeki, thanks for picking up where I was going with the chord progression.

Scott...I really like the track...this could be popular in the great tribulation to come...it's that kinda dark ... an apocalyptic anthem for sure...your vocals are Bowie-esk and with the lyric quite haunting...your songs are always interesting and very well done! Much appreciated, Dan!

I almost missed this one. I'm glad I didn't miss it.
Super vocal and backing band.
The lyrics could have been written by Jim Morrison and I mean that as a big compliment.
Super mix
Loved it
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

Scott, Amazing write! Love lyrics and vocal performance. "Riding a one-eyed horse back into town I am living on the upside of down" That is a gem. Probably the "darkest" I've heard from you, but that doesn't scare me, I like dark tunes  Panning guitars was very effective. Good mix. Enjoyed this a lot and thank you for sharing. Misha.
