The Illusion Of Loyalty
v4.5-all
Surreal early-80s neo-prog, male vocals, Start with brittle chorus guitar and fretless bass pulsing under spoken-word surrealism, then lurch into angular, tom-heavy sections with shifting time signatures, Mellotron choirs and wheezing organ swell in the choruses; middle section fractures into tape-delay monologue and dissonant synth clusters before crashing back into a triumphant, bitter refrain, Wide, theatrical vocal delivery with whispered doubles and sudden shouts, final chord hanging unresolved, experimental
