Wrote this song after I had just turned 17 back in the summer of 2018. This is the first full song I ever wrote and I did so in under 10 minutes. At the time, my favorite song to play on guitar was "Stranglehold" so naturally the main riff of Savior has a similar flow and vibe. The lyrics are a homage to good ol’ rock n’ roll, with the hopes that one day there will be a resurgence. The vocals and guitars recorded through Apple headphones (very low production quality). I played all the instruments on this track (vocals, guitars, bass, drums), like with all my music. I created the track through GarageBand and used a Les Paul Epiphone and Fender Mustang for the guitar sound. The track sounds a bit dirty, as there was no auto-tuning or special sound enhancements. Generally everything was recorded in one take (per instrument, including vocals)for the sake of sound continuity in the amp/microphone feedback.
