Seriously, this is such a D. Bovvie rip-off.

Not the riff I s'pose.

But all the rest...

The vocals are absurdly reaching in the Bov' direction.

Kind of embarrassing.

The main riff is actually very lovely.

by Nightjar Thu May 21, 2020 9:04 pm

You could imagine the melodic riff slowed down and a proper song constructed around it.

Drums that sounded nails being hammer.

Possibly was nails being hammered.

It's more to do with the vocal, octave modulations and vibrato.

It's a style that alienated many of D. Bovvie's fans as the '80s ticked over and which he deployed to actively annoy fans at live gigs when he had to do the old material they really had come to hear.
