"The Trial" with explanation

[DaveT2]

I don't think I have posted this song yet, if I have, I blame it on old age.

Brief background, about 2 years ago my left hand became intimately familiar with my tablesaw. I broke all 5 fingers, two pretty severely. The doctor was able to save them, but my middle finger and thumb can  only move at the joint nearest the palm. Otherwise, they are stiff. My other fingers have sections that are numb.  I have played guitar, not great but got by, for most of my life and now I am unable to play most rock bar chords and have to compromise on some open string chords. Part of my rehabilitation has been trying to learn to play bass guitar.  This song is a result of my early efforts. I will warn you, it is a Dirge. I try to create fast rock songs, but always end up trying to be slow and atmospheric.  I appreciate the listen and any feedback.

I used a soft synth for the drone notes and the sound effx, the bass is a Glarry Short Scale bass with a modified pickup. (there are two bass lines, the lead intro and a drone background). The guitar is a kit guitar I purchased from Guitar Fetish and built and is the one in the thumbnail. If you read this far, I thank you for your interest.
