Throw us a bone, Pete  :)

Lyrics, a little background to the song, a "hello" even...

That is my view  :D

Yo Pete.

You have misrepresented yourself quite badly.

I clicked on the tube vid expecting to hear some pitchy caterwauling,but yet all I heard was a very pleasant and individual sounding singer. If I'd paid good money to hear some pitchy caterwauling,I'd be bitterly disappointed.  :(

I like the 'in yer face' lyrics,they fit well with the anthemic feel to the song.

There are timing issues here and there between the chugging guitar and the drums,plus when the song builds,your vocals are completely overwhelmed. You can here this clearly from 1.44 to 2.29 where your voice sits well in the mix,then fades away in the build up.

Maybe a little on the long side,overall?
Still,all that is is fine tuning.The item itself is a very listenable,cool song.  :)

Thank you
I'm planning to sort the vocals and trim by a minute when I go back in the studio.
Thanks for the feedback.
Will check out your link when I get home

Great song with great vocals, there is a very current sound to your voice. There is a good contrast between the verses and chorus, I felt it could use more backing vocals in some places but a really good listen.

Great song and that chorus really comes in with a punch that I did not see coming! The prechorus really sets it up well though.

I got a combination of modern sounds and in the chorus at least some Linkin Park style vibes which suited the song well. The lyrics are good too - lots of rhymes but not too forced. Agree with Skub on the vocal mixing but otherwise sounding really good to me.

Reminds me a bit of Linking Park. I like the use of dynamics in the arrangement,, and the style of singing.. I think you should add a nice small reverb to your voice that would be cool. Or maybe some delays slightly. I do think the chorus comes in a bit loud in terms of levels.. The song overall is good! The singing is also good wasnt out of tune. Keep it up man :)
I do songs, Vlogs and beats that are H o t
