Blind Spot
Virgo Power

I've got a blind spot the size of Texas
and you're in Abilene

should have seen you coming from a mile away
but you were on my right side (right side!)
should have known you were bad news and trouble
but you were on my bad side (bad side!)

you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)

(Bridge: clapping)

I've got a blind spot the size of Texas
and you're in Abilene

every other day you changed into a jerk
and you were on my right side (right side!)
like reverse Superman into Clark Kent
and you were on my bad side (bad side!)

you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)
you're in my blind spot (Move!)

this definitely feels imperfect, the handclappy middle section feels like it loses the song's momentum a bit. But I love the shouty hook (reminds me of Le Tigre a bit) and the use of distortion. Would have been nice to have more hand percussion in there for the challenge rather than just the claps but this is such a cool track and it really stands out from the pack.

I like the crunchy (distortion) thing. Drums seem a little off. Wish the chorus was a little more than just the same thing repeated over and over.

*Crown Shy: Sparkly. Owly. I like the verses a lot. Woody. Clicky. I don't know what you're saying in the choruses though.

*Last Minotaur: Planet P. Project. I feel like the verse/chorus sound too similar for my liking. Obvs the intesity/volume kicks up, but nothing else is different from the verses, same as the bridge, I think if you added a new instrument or something… or removed one in the bridge maybe.

*Vom Vorton: Smithy. I like the left/right guitars clicking back and forth in my stereo. Bass sounds good, nice and soft mix. Sounds like my past life… as a time traveler.

Overall I was pleased with all of the tracks and felt like everyone stepped up from R0 for the most part. The highs were not as high, but the lows didn't really seem to be there at all, so kudos to everyone!
