Hi all,

Hope the late summer finds you well.

This one's a bit more heavy than normal - was looking for an ebb and flow with a relentlessness in the chorus  to try and capture the theme of the song.
The vocal is deliberately mixed a little lower in the outro as I was trying for a feeling of someone being almost drowned out as they're being swallowed up by the world around. Or it's just bad mixing - you decide. Lol.

Thanks for checking out and any comments.

Future Sound of Life

Dim the lights
And shut down the radio
Play your part a
Puppet in the freak show
Keep it low
But, I hear the radio
I hear the radio
The radio’s on

Hold your gun
Cos you have the God right
Violence walks
A bullet on the inside
Master calls
The servant leads the old fight
Found a new low
And low is your birthright

I don’t want no more
No more than what I’m missin’
I don’t want no more
No more than what I’m missin’
I don’t want no more
No more than what I’m missin’
I don’t want no more
No more than my rights

You got the white house
City’s on fire
People in the black room
Lookin’ for a life
Turn the world west
But it never looked right
I’d burn your flag
And you wonder why

Feed your law
Keep me on the outside
Justice falls
And I’m on the last rite
If she talked
Then she’d lead the one fight
Out from the darkness
Into a new light

I don’t want no more
No more than what I’m missin’
I don’t want no more
No more than what I’m missin’
I don’t want no more
No more than what I’m missin’
I don’t want no more
No more than my rights

You got the white house
City’s on fire
People in the black room
Lookin’ for a life
Turn the world west
But it never looked right
I’d burn your flag
And you wonder why

You got the white house
City’s on fire
People in the black room
Lookin’ for a life
Turn the world west
But it never looked right
I’d burn your flag
And you wonder why

Hear’s the future sound of life
Hear’s the future sound of life
Hear’s the future sound of life
Hear’s the future sound of life

excellent
well done!
I like all of it
the lyrics n voice
Guitars and beat! top drawer stuff!
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

Don't eat the yellow snow

And there you have it.

Hey @digger72 ..

Lyrics are fantastic for starters. Some great lines in there -Turn the world west
But it never looked right
I’d burn your flag
And you wonder why 

I absolutely LOVE the heaviness of it..Those guitars are fab and the heavy beat...

Katja's sweet and sultry vocals work beautifully against the heavy backdrop and the relentlessness of vocal delivery really sucks you in... the interlude before "Feed the law" perfectly placed..

Catchy as hell... absolutely love everything about this track..

FAB!

Karen.

@digger72,

 Really cool guitar intro.  In fact there is some really tasty guitar throughout this song.  This one advertises it's intention from the start and delivers a fantastic production and song with great dynamics throughout.  The vocals are outstanding.  a smouldering song that grabs our attention and holds on to it!

Well done

Paul

I do love your heavier stuff @digger72 In fact I like all of your stuff  :) Great driving beat and love those crunchy guitars. Great vocals from Catjia. This has a real sinister sound and it rocks like a rocky rock thang  :)
