@Leadfoot A little metal to start the day never hurts, will not comment on lyrical content. It might surprise you I actually quite like a bit of metal, I was musically educated on the likes of Black Sabbath, Black Widow, early Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Taste, T2 etc. (much to the fear of my dear old Strict Baptist Dad)
Musically it sounds accomplished. Mix wise, and this is just my personal furry preferences, I would have liked the kick to have been a tad more chest crushing, some more separation between the featured guitars would have been nice, they all sounded very much on top of each other. The vocal was nice and clear, lyrics understandable. Thhe opening synth drone was very nice.
Perhaps slightly over squished, the meters on my desk seemed to be locked in place.
Overall though breakfast was better for a little metal, thanks for sharing.
