Really well done, man, that vocal is crazy good! Everything about this is crazy good actually, excellent use of dynamics.
Very much enjoyed, loved the video too.
Thanks a lot for your nice feedback, Dave.
Much appreciated!
P.S. Instrumental solos are a relic from the last millennium, eh? I suppose that makes me a relic from the last millennium too

Of course, and so am I

And, as I have already written, that is not a bad thing.
But in this day and age, many (modern) solos seem to be forced in to keep the song from being TOO boring, rather than a natural part of the song itself.
