Promises Untrue (Demagogues like You)

Lyrics:

Well we gave everything we had to give
To promises untrue
But you tried to burn the whole place down
So we now know now what not to do

Yeah you always said you could
Then it seems you never do

So it sad to say but you can rot in hell
For we’ll never trust another one like you

Well they say to lead’s a lion’s heart
We all used to feel that way
But we learned it takes much more than that
So there nothing much much more to say

Yeah you always say you will
But you played some folks for fools

So it’s sad to say that you can rot in hell
For we’ll never trust another one like you

Oh no, you’re really such a liar
A complete bald faced denier
A faker. A loser. We’re through with you.

On no, now it seems you’re getting busted
Just proving you can’t be trusted
That time is long overdue (it’s so true)

Because you always say you will
But we all know you're for you

Yeah and it’s sad to say but please go rot in jail
For you can never trust a demagogue like you
No we’ll never trust another one like you

We’re all so tired of your misbehaving
There’s just no way that you could not have known
There was nothing that was ever stolen
You’re just putting on a shit ass show

So as we round another corner
With you asking for another chance
It's so great you’re gonna make us happy
When we decline to dance your dance

Cause you always say you can
But it’s up to us to choose

Yeah we’re so pleased to see that you’re getting screwed

Cause we can never trust a demagogue like you
Yeah we’ll never trust another one like you

I'm not really sure which side of the fence you're on lol... so, I'll just enjoy it for my own reasons 8-)
 
Hey Dub.

I like the rhythm guitar sounds. Great crunch.

That's a real cool bass part. Bass sounds nice too.

Something about the cymbals don't sound right. They sound a little swirly. They don't sound exactly like cymbals. Toms are panned really wide. Snare is a little thin and back in the mix

Nice lead guitar - sounds great.

The vocal is dryer than the rest of the tracks. I'm still hearing a little bit of that "singing down an empty paper towel roll" sound. Not bad, but still a hint of it.
 
Hi Kev! :-)

First response during the intro was flipping the phase to check whether the guitar was out of phase. Not sure, maybe it's the guitar, maybe it's the reverb. It disappears after the other instruments come up. Bass is busy but there's space for it in the tune. I think I'd drive it a bit more (saturation, an 1176, stuff like that).

Agree with Trip regarding the drums and the vocals.

Rhythm guitar maybe could use a bit more high end to make it pop out more?

Song has lots of Energy - nothings in time though . each instrument is off with the others.
