The singing is solid. The background vocals at the start and end are so cool, too. It's not my preferred genre of music, but I think it's a great song. And a good use of the song title.

I want to 100% congratulate you on your vocal work here, I did not know you had this kind of delivery in your arsenal! BUT also I have to admit that this particular vocal style is one I don't particularly care for which puts me in an "admire it but don't love it" position on this one. I like that there are a range of vocal styles in here though, and the production is really good and BIG.

You really set the mood & you picked a tough target. Props for both. Lyrically I thought you did a fine job, and liked that you were letting your presence be known as much as you were dissing someone. Vocals a little out of your range at times, but it’s not too distracting. You get bonus points for the “I’m Not Impressed” reference. #Impressed

Great vocals (that deep awooo sounds really rich!); I really appreciate your performance even though I am not a fan of that Chris Cornell style of vocal. Instrumentals are also well performed and the production feels just right for the genre. I appreciated the Jerkatorium podcast discussing this, because I didn't have enough Nur Ein history under my belt to understand this, and spent quite a while trying to figure out what this song had to do with actual reigning champs Merisan. That being said, I appreciate that the lyrics apparently have a lot of specific references, but they are all worked in very naturally--nothing stuck out to me as being shoehorned in. I'm 50-50 on how much of a diss track this is--the attitude is definitely right, but the actual insults seem kind of thin on the ground; much more of it is about the challenge to the target.

IVeg (shadow): Really enjoyed the verse lyrics--I think you have a gift for vivid character studies and interesting, poetic phrasing. "She thinks she's so hot but she's not" felt overly simplistic to me, even if it's supposed to be a play on the whole winter metaphor. It also seems to be the only real diss in the lyrics--the rest just felt like description to me. Love the melody in the chorus, it was a nice use of the title and it's catchy, I think with a slicker production it could feel like a lost new wave synthpop gem. Do sleds have brakes? Actually, don't you live in Hawaii? Maybe I shouldn't be asking you. It snowed here like 3 weeks ago.

Lichen Throat (shadow): I've really been enjoying the productions you have been putting together for Nur Ein! I like the arrangement for this one, it has some nice movement and lead melodies; instrumentally, it reminds me a bit of some song off The Magnetic Fields' "Charm of the Highway Strip"--I'm thinking "When The Open Road Is Closing In" but not 100% sure if that's the one. The vocals have some good moments--"telescopic philanthropy" and the end of that verse from "Mrs. Jellyby" to "in your town" were delivered quite nicely, although there are also still a number of pitchy or off-time vocal parts elsewhere that could use some work. Good lyrics, I like that this is a fairly scathing diss track presented in an understated, 19th-century sort of way, and I'm enjoying seeing you flesh out your Bleak House concept album, even though I've never read the book.
