Protocol Nightmare — [Melodic Death Metal x Epic Cyberpunk Power Metal]
[Intro] [Sound of footsteps on gravel, birds chirping, atmospheric pads, building slowly, NO guitars yet, NO drums yet] [Build-Up] [Distorted electric guitar enters with chugging power chord riff, drums enter with driving 4/4 beat, building intensity] [Chorus] [Aggressive male vocals at 140 BPM, driving rhythm, powerful and anthemic] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: Day by day, nightmare sorrow] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: You want to go] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: Day by day, nightmare sorrow] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: You want to go] [Long, distorted scream] [Instrumental Break] [Fast, alternate-picked guitar riff at 150 BPM, bass and drums lock into syncopated groove, building energy] [Verse 1] [Palm-muted guitar chords at 130 BPM, harsh growls, atmospheric synth backing] It always makes me cry… What do you think about it? You let me know what to do… I'd never be so afraid… [Pre-Chorus] [Power metal transition at 150 BPM, soaring clean vocals, twin guitar harmonies, building to epic] The nightmare protocol activates… The resistance rises from the shadows… [Guitar Solo] [ONE melodic solo ONLY at 150 BPM. Start with harmonized lead guitars telling a story of battle. Use wah-pedal accents sparingly for emphasis. Play epic, memorable phrases that capture the cyberpunk rebellion. NO shredding, NO arpeggios, NO random elements. Keep it melodic and controlled. End with twin guitar harmonies resolving to the root] [Chorus] [Full intensity at 160 BPM, double-kick drums, soaring clean vocals, layered growls, epic power metal transition] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: Day by day, nightmare sorrow] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: You want to go] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: Day by day, nightmare sorrow] We are ready for fighting in the night! [Backing vocals: You want to go] [Bridge] [Slowing to 120 BPM, atmospheric, synth elements, haunting clean vocals, building tension] The city sleeps… But we never rest… The nightmare protocol… Puts us to the test… [Grand Finale] [Maximum intensity at 180 BPM, full band, soaring vocals, epic choir, twin guitar harmonies, climactic and triumphant] WE ARE READY FOR FIGHTING IN THE NIGHT! [Backing vocals: DAY BY DAY, NIGHTMARE SORROW] WE ARE READY FOR FIGHTING IN THE NIGHT! [Backing vocals: YOU WANT TO GO] WE ARE READY FOR FIGHTING IN THE NIGHT! [Backing vocals: DAY BY DAY, NIGHTMARE SORROW] WE ARE READY FOR FIGHTING IN THE NIGHT! [Backing vocals: YOU WANT TO GO] [Outro] [Vocalist screams] ONE MORE TIME! [Final sustained power chord with feedback, drums end on sharp snare hit, hard stop]
