Confessions They Drag From Me

Dark alt-pop rock, male vocals. Fingerpicked electric intro with distant reverb, then a heavy, swung drum groove and distorted bass drop under the first hook. Verses stay tense and close-mic’d, guitars palm-muted and twitchy; chorus explodes with octave-lead guitars, stacked harmonies on key lines, and a soaring, slightly overdriven vocal. Bridge strips to toms and a haunted synth pad before a final, bigger chorus with ad-libs and a bass drop on the last line.
