Another quick one! Started from a riff I came up with last week after submitting the last song. I've really been wanting to sink a lot of time into a song during the week like I did when I first started WB but lately just haven't been finding or wanting to take the time to make as large of efforts. I have been having fun trying to see what I can come up with in the span of an day/afternoon though. It's actually pretty fun to try to come up with some parts and sketch out a song in such a short time frame. I think sometimes I end up trying things or sticking with ideas I might not have simply because of the time constraint. And most importantly it's making sure I practice writing, which has been my main goal for WB.

That's a really nice smooth jam at the beginning. I really love the chord progression and the melody outlining the interesting parts of the chords that I think maybe put it in different keys.  The whole second have a really dope too, transitioning from jazzy to metal. The riffs are solid and the rhythmic staccato bits are a nice touch. The melody for the ending is great too.

Also I was listening super closely at the ending fade out because I thought you might sneak the lick in as the volume dropped out haha.

But you found this song, and it's good

Uhnnnnn 2:15 that lead you transition into is sexy. Simple progression, but sometimes tossing that in at just the right place makes all the difference. I dig it. Nice work.

Excellent pace throughout the track.  Just when you're grooving in one section then you introduce another cool part.  The solo outro took me back a bit too.  Nice work and keep it up! \m/
