Grumpy Mike - Blind Spot (featuring Steven Lamphear)

Smooth sailing
Nothing to dread
No sign of danger
Not a curve ahead

Unaware of what’s out of sight,
Hidden, growing, ready to ignite
Coming up on me like a dog for a fight
I didn’t see he’s coming for a fight

Blind spot, fierce and wild
Can’t shake his wrath, he’s like an untamed child
Blind Spot, heaven knows
What demons lurk behind your shadow

Tip-toing quietly
Trying to complete my task
Surely he cannot see
Get in, get out, too much to ask

Awake, the monster bears his teeth
No one can rescue his enemy
A homing missile, he’s locked on me
Gotta get off, get off his lawn

this is a tricky one for me. I have fewer actual potentially useful criticisms than I did for the previous song, it sounds slick and solid, hits the challenge etc. But from a personal point of view this falls directly into the exact middle of a particular subgenre I absolutely cannot stand - despite the obvious craft on display this was the song I least looked forward to revisiting of the round. I know the other judges are more heavy-rock oriented than I am so I'm sure they'll balance out my ranking but I have to take into account how little I liked this song, unfortunately.

Primus. It's weird, I don't think anything is particularly bad in itself, but together, I'm not sure everything fits. Love the heavy dun dun, and the solo RIPS!, but the weird bass only verses… and the vocals that don't seem to fit in some of the sections… I don't think on a whole it works, but the pieces aren't bad in themselves. Hrmmm...
