Title Fight - Leaf

This track hits hard right on the first note. There's an 8 bar intro, that's made as full as possible which allows space to be made for the verse that follows. I can hear, drums, bass, rhythm guitar and lead guitar. The lead guitar is the element that's removed for the verse. It resides though, with a feedback signal and then acts as a call/response at the end of each line. Floral Green (the album) came out this year, so we expect a loud record and that expectation is met.

Vocals:
The vocals are your standard front and centre position. However, I haven't noticed much use of backing vocals except at 1:38 where a second voice seems to come in behind, and the same thing at 2:13. Thinking about the song as a whole, as one man's battle - perhaps the idea of backing vocals would detract from that.

Guitar: 
The use of the lead guitar as a 'noise machine' sounds good in many sections of this song except at 1:23 where it pierces through a bit too much. A little bit of volume automation there would have done the trick. The chugging of the guitar through the verses sounds quite good though. The higher pitch noise of the second guitar doesn't mask the rhythm guitar.

Rhythm: 
This track is your standard rock time signature in 4/4 and hits the tempo of 160 beats per minute. There's a lot of interchange with double time sections and half time sections that are generally very popular in this kind of music. The snare drum cuts through well enough, the main issue though is the ride cymbal that gets switched to quite often. There's some stick definition but overall doesn't hold enough weight in the mix to make the transitions between hi hat and ride smooth.
