Coming Undone

This song sums up how I'm feeling about work lately, after 12 years delivering friendly customer service to people who speak to me like animals, but hey, I haven't done vocals for a few weeks so this was a great excuse.
The whole tune is super heavy, 8-string plugins were used to get a nice clean tone for the djenty parts, the rhythm parts are programmed as well in Shreddage (7-string library for Kontakt) I wanted to make the song with no instruments because I've spent 12 years talking to people through computer screens/headsets. For certain tunes, I really like the industrial sound from pre-recorded guitars. I did double track them at different velocities though 
the 8-string library is a bit beefy here and there, but I just went with it. Vocals inspired by Dethklok, music inspired by DOOM Eternal coming out later THIS MONTH! I also bit crushed a high quality string library for something different too, adds to the coming undone vibe. Same goes for the many pitch bends in the djent riffs!
Lyrics:
I don't want to work
I just want berzerk!
Constantly killing
My intellect
Keep marching on like every insect
The week prey on strong
Can never do wrong
My mind slows down
I'm coming undone.
