CUSTOM

[styles: The main guitar approach is built around low-register power-chord/single-note riffs, played with heavy distortion and a lot of palm muting. The picking is aggressive and mechanically even, giving the guitar an almost industrial, machine-like quality. Instead of letting every chord ring, the guitarist alternates between short, choked attacks and more open accents, which creates the riff's push-and-pull. A particularly important part of the sound is the space between attacks. The riff isn't a continuous wall of notes. Those abrupt stops make the kick and snare hit harder and give the whole band that stomping feel. The guitar is effectively functioning as part of the rhythm section. largely reinforce the same rhythmic idea rather than playing elaborate independent lines. That produces a very wide, dense sound while retaining an unusually clear rhythmic outline. The guitars sound heavily saturated, but the playing itself is controlled enough that the riff doesn't turn to mush. Technically, it's not difficult in the conventional lead-guitar senseβ€”there's little emphasis on solos, fast scalar runs, or fancy chord voicings. The difficulty is precision: consistent palm muting, hard synchronized down/picking attacks, clean stops, and locking exactly to the drums. Stylistically, I'd describe the guitar part as industrial-metal riffing treated almost like percussion: low, repetitive, syncopated, deliberately minimal, with distortion supplying mass while the right hand supplies the groove.] Black lace on the dresser Lipstick like a fresh-cut wound You say my name in a mirror And I’m already in the room (so soon) Cold hands on your collar You shiver but you don’t pull back Every secret that you offer I wear it like a mark Like a pact You ask β€œIs this danger?” I smile β€œYou don’t wanna know” Every promise tastes stranger Once you feel your heartbeat slow Blood on the velvet Love in the crypt Kiss me in the dark β€˜til the colors all slip You gave me your pulse and I took one sip Now you’re haunted Haunted Haunted by it Teeth in a whisper Tongue on a lie Say you wanna live but you’re begging to die You’re caught in my shadow Caught in my eyes And you love it Love it Love it Don’t lie Nail marks on your shoulder Little crescent moons in your skin Every bruise writes a chapter Of the night you let me in Red wine on the carpet Looks just like a slow confession You tremble at the threshold Still you call it your obsession You ask β€œAre you hungry?” I laugh β€œYou have no idea” Every sigh tastes like thunder Every fear draws me near Blood on the velvet Love in the crypt Kiss me in the dark β€˜til the colors all slip You gave me your pulse and I took one sip Now you’re haunted Haunted Haunted by it Teeth in a whisper Tongue on a lie Say you wanna live but you’re begging to die You’re caught in my shadow Caught in my eyes And you love it Love it Love it Don’t lie Midnight in your rib cage I can hear the chapel bells Ringing for the part of you You offered up yourself You pray for a sunrise But you pull me closer still Tell me Is it sacrifice If you’re running to the kill? Blood on the velvet Love in the crypt Kiss me in the dark β€˜til the colors all slip You gave me your pulse and I took one sip Now you’re haunted Haunted Haunted by it Teeth in a whisper Tongue on a lie Say you wanna live but you’re begging to die You’re caught in my shadow Caught in my eyes And you love it Love it Love it Don’t lie Blood on the velvet Blood on the velvet (don’t lie, don’t lie) You gave me your heartbeat I keep it I keep it Just bass and your breathing (you’re mine, you’re mine) Blood on the velvet (soft, so quiet) Blood on the velvet (one last bite) You fade into my silhouette Nothing left but me and your quiet breath
