Agony Sauce
No Memory

[Bleeps and blips provided by SID-Station samples.]
[Vocal sample from "Eucharist" by Ellipsis]

Now I'm looking back
I fell for your trap
Someone who you could use
Flimsy exposure
Had I looked closer
Yes, there would have been clues

And if nothing else there were lessons
Now I know...

That I
Don't want any
trace of you tied back to my identity
(I do this to remember)
If you erased our bad times
Nothing would be left
I'd have no memory
(I do this to remember)

A-D-I-E-U
That's what I'll see to
I have made those mistakes
I got burned it's a
chance to learn and I
have those demons to face

And if nothing else there were lessons
Now I know...

That I
Don't want any
trace of you tied back to my identity
(I do this to remember)
If you erased our bad times
Nothing would be left
I'd have no memory
(I do this to remember)

[BREAK]

'Though I may rue it
I can not lose this
So the tale can be told
Behold the shocking
Walking and talking
Empty husk with no soul!

And if nothing else there were lessons
Now I know...

That I
Don't want any
trace of you tied back to my identity
(I do this to remember)
If you erased our bad times
Nothing would be left
I'd have no memory
(I do this to remember)

I don't want any
trace of you tied back to my identity
(I do this to remember)
If you erased our bad times
Nothing would be left
I'd have no memory
(I do this to remember)

I love how you've made the chiptune synths fit your desired sound / genre, it works really well. Excellently catchy chorus, too. I can't figure out whether I like the stop-start rhythms, especially in the pre-chorus - it's certainly different and does pay off nicely into the chorus, but it doesn't quite click with me each time. I’m also not totally won over by the lead guitar / layers of fuzz. But some of it is definitely working, because this is one of my favourites of the round despite my nitpicks.

Again, I’m impressed you’re making this harder on yourself than needed...and still killing it. Good use of the title, and the chiptune sounds fit in perfectly. The only part I didn’t really care for was the break. The less dominate sound just made me cringe. Really enjoyed the story & vocals for this. Having your cadence be robotic & actually still catchy is just really cool. I need to stop listening in alphabetical order on first listen...you set the bar very high for everyone else.
