    Came here for the stevie T but totally ended up subscribing and liking right after you laid down the drum track. At first I was thinking good grief those drum changes are ridiculous and no way can you make this work.... I was wrong. Lol. You totally opened my eyes to a new way of thinking about how to arrange songs. Up until now everything ive done has been so rhythmically stagnant compared to this way of songwriting. You absolutely killed it mate. Metal as ffffffuuuuuuuucccccckkkkkkk.

    It's wonderful how being restricted makes you more creative and open to experiment. Because you have to sound right with all the constraints that yourself set. All my f$%&ng life I've been paralyzed with how to start and make a song. I have very good ideas, but always get caught in the argument of what is right and what is wrong. Thanks for the inspiration

    11:05 man! Exactly what i wonder when writing music.
    I'm a drummer, and when deciding what would sound good on a certian part of the song i just go on feel.
    And when i'm trying stuff out in the process i'll eventually hit something that just clicks and then i stick to that.
    But then indeed how it works in our brain to decide what works and what doesn't is something almost magical.
    I can't think of an explanation.
