A good song, just a little less tuning on the vocals would be nice and bring the vocals up in the mix a little. Nice riffing.

record the drums loud as hell! This band sounds like a "drummer is the star of the show" kind of thing - double bass in your face, all over the place.  The others are good too, of course.

I like the Pierce The Veil vibes. I like post hardcore, metalcore, and all that shit. I'd day it's worth a repost. There is room for improvement. The production needs some work. You can choose to work on the production yourself, or you can have someone else do it. Either way, I dig the path you're on

This song started out many years ago as a novelty party spoof on blues. I would ad lib the lyrics and improvise an accompaniment on acoustic guitar which meant no two performances were ever the same. See Retrospection’s Facebook page for a sample.

Recently I decided to do a serious blues rock version and this current track has been inspired by the blues rock style of Eric Clapton and the licks by other blues artists. The lyrics still do contain just a little hint of the mischievous fun from the old party days.

But We Are Initiated, Aren’t We Bruce

Woke up with the river in my boots,
Sky lookin’ like it owed me a fight.
Train wailin’ down by the bayou bend,
Sounded ‘bout right for my night.

Left my roots in a busted bottle,
Traded road signs for smoke and sin—
Ain’t no compass when the devil’s drivin’,
Just a twitch in the bones and the wind.

I drift like the wind don't know me,
Float like the rain forgot my name.
Keep on movin’ ‘til the lines get crooked—
Guess I was born to drift anyway.

Found a shack where the porchboards groaned,
Old man squintin’ through a kerosene haze.
Said, “Boy, you look like a long-lost story—
With too many starts and no last page.”

Hung my coat on a nail full o’ rust,
Took a swig from a jar that bit like fire—
Even ghosts’ll sit when the sky turns red,
Even sins run outta desire.

I drift like the wind don't know me,
Float like the rain forgot my name.
Keep on movin’ ‘til the lines get crooked—
Guess I was born to drift anyway.

Every goodbye’s just a slow exhale,
Every mile’s another curse I sell.
Some folks stay, some raise hell—
Me? I drift... and I drift real well.

I drift like the wind don't know me,
Float like the rain forgot my name.
Keep on movin’ ‘til the lines get crooked—
Guess I was born to drift anyway.

Guess I was born… to drift anyway.

The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara
"Deus Ex Machina"
Music Composition: Andrea Papi
Lyrics & Vocals: Daphne Ang

Deus Ex Machina is an arresting sonic and theatrical experience of man’s perennial struggle between fate and free will. Charged with both pathos and ethos, the song is a musical revisitation of classical literature’s greatest tragedy – the story of Oedipus Rex.

"Deus Ex Machina" tells the story of King Oedipus of Thebes, who despite all his efforts, ends up fulfilling the prophecy he was trying so hard to avoid: that he would kill his father and marry his mother.

Inspired by the sonnets of Shakespeare and the lyrical poetry of Ancient Greece, the lyrics tells the story of Oedipus Rex – a play by Sophocles written over two thousand years ago. The song is chanted and recited over the music much like in the chorus in Greek tragedy.

Released worldwide on September 18, 2020, "DEUS EX MACHINA" is the third single of The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara. The track forms part of the independently produced album ‘Full Spectrum'.

Lyrics 

On the path of peril, the blind king staggers away
All he can see is darkness like a shroud
Groping through mist and cloud, the devil his only friend
Doomed is he to find release only at his end

Cursed is he who incurs the wrath of envious gods
Woe is he, he who walks alone on the road to ruin
Woe is he, whose fate is abandoned to the wind
Woe is he, the end too dread to tell, too dark to see

Trial is the test of man
Hubris will be his fall
Fate is the curse of man
In god’s envy, tragedy befalls

Hamartia is the flaw of man
Hubris be his downfall
Trial is the test of man,
But death befalls us all

Oh cursed Oedipus, 
Pursued by the hounds of fate
For slaying and laying with kindred, 
You took out both your eyes

All your sins laid bare
Your shame you alone will wear
So you go away without a guide
A vagrant with no sight

Oh cursed Oedipus, 
Hallowed be thy pain
A blind man wandering across the land
Never to be seen again 

Oh cursed Oedipus, 
Hallowed be thy shame
Architect of his own tragedy
So vanished he, into a shoreless sea 

Trial is the test of man
Hubris be his fall
Fate is the curse of man
In god’s envy, tragedy befalls

Hamartia is the flaw of man
Hubris be his downfall
Trial is the test of man,
And death will end it all
