Rock, driving mid-tempo 4/4 with muscular toms and crunching guitars; verse rides tight palm-muted riffs and sparse bass, pre-chorus opens with rising cymbal pressure and harmony lift, chorus hits wide with stacked male vocals and shouted gang doubles. Short reverse-guitar swells, tape-stop accent into the bridge, final chorus adds octave leads. Bright, gritty, arena-sized mix with a close-mic baritone lead.
