Blind Spot by chewmeupspitmeout

I'll be your blind spot
perennial long shot
Little forget me not
Ignored afterthought
Maybe baby
You'd just forsake me
If you'd notice me first

Given enough
Old rope
Same old tired trope
No value left in my false hope
If there ever was
Thinking lately
Maybe you'd hate me?
If we ever spoke

We're just cosmic fruit flies
Alive for a moment before we all die

I am your blind spot
My spirit oh, so squashed
The one that's left to rot
Sat upon the shelf
You could save me
Kill me humanely
Cos that's all that I have left

(Blind spot, always be your blind spot
I'll never be yours)

I used to be afraid of the dark
Now I'm just scared of the light

Self medicate
With microdoses
I need to escape
From this psychosis
I'm just your blind spot
Will this pain ever stop?

the vocals bouncing in and out of falsetto are fun, makes for a strong / interesting / memorable melody line. Feel like the vocal levels are a little tricky though, sometimes they get a little swamped by the music and at other times they're overpowering, could use some automation or maybe some clever sidechain stuff to help in the parts when the music gets busier. The clean guitar early on sounds like it has some cool stuff going on but it's a little buried in the mix, would like to hear more of that. The crunchy guitar sounds really nice. Lyrics are a fun take on the title with some striking images, I like the "cosmic fruit flies" line! And the percussion is well integrated into the song. So yeah, generally good song that just needs a little mix work I think.

Almondish. Soft. I enjoy the backing tracks this time, more than the sound collage feel of R0. The vocal/melody is what gets me here.
