Mostly the melody. Also the high vocals.

Absolutely beautiful - reminded me of...Renaissance! From a Clash drum track - how the heck does that happen? So clever, original and melodic. I loved it.

This is really cool. I really liked it a lot. It feels timeless and slightly eccentric, in a good way. Really special and unique entry.

Heya Ramshack,

Good to see you sharing!

Those lyrics, bloody hell, they peel back the layers and hit where it matters. Very quatable.. infact
Quote
Start picking bones to meet our ends
Burn our homes and start again
I will shed this skin of mine
Cracking with the trials of time

Bloody beautiful, I want to etch it onto my wall - then watch whilst burning the whole thing down.

Ha wasn't expecting the cheery female vocals and upbeat accompanyment at all - which just makes it all the better. Extraordinary really, all that energy thrown into the song like a crazy abstract paiting that both excites and contains subtle beauty.

I don't know man, just what it is to me, beautiful.

All the best,
Scott.

Hi, really enjoyed this, a bit of Sandy Denny folk merged with a bit of Jethro Tull prog rock. Nice arrangement and instrumentation.
Good stuff!
Cheers
Jamie

Totally different vibe that that we got from anyone else, and is really refreshing for it.

The acoustic sounds at the start and the echo of the drums all work really well.
Found it all got a little scrappy at the end but I know it is hard with the live drum track to get everything perfect.

Really enjoyable, thanks!

Funny I just listened to this again and i really liked it where as before I wasn't over gone - strange how that can happen

Going to add it to my playlist
