I reversed the bass in some sections and even changed some of the character (via filters) of some of the bass sounds.

Another one for the RPM2011 pile. Vocals are a bit shonky so apologies for that. If you don't like the start I would give the ending a try. If you don't like that either, I'm sorry to have wasted your time. The subject matter's self-explanatory…

I'm not that good at making rock music. or any music that would normally require a guitar. I do my best with what I can on FL Studios, so often times a normally cool sounding amped guitar ends up sounding very brass and dull when I use it…

Leafless trees hung low in the cold.

But no god came. In the end…
