Cool stuff and catchy chorus.

I can't decide whether the bass is too quiet or not, but then I do debate that a lot in my own songs. I'm wondering whether, as you wanted to showcase the drums, maybe the mix favours them and that's what's throwing me?

Anyway, regardless of that, I enjoyed it, gritty and energetic.

Clever stuff - l love things like "suicided", such a small change that turns "jump" into "pushed"...

It's a catchy song and the drums and cutting guitars give it a drive and bite that suits your style really well.

I didn't really go for the "aaahs" in the breakdown, perhaps a harmony (not too sweet, perhaps something 80s / indie sounding like a 6th?) could work?

Another one to thank FAWM for (you'll have me doing it soon...) (I wish)

Hi Paul

An upbeat song about suicidal tendencies - who'd a thunk?
Love the lyrics and how they fllloooowww off your tongue!  ;D
The chorus lifts as a chorus should and you stay true to the hook.

Inspired!
