 Song 151

Hello everyone! It seems like everyone is releasing new music this month, which is awesome! Today I'm reviewing a new song by a band I like it's called Rotten Apple by Fall To Pieces! They are a fairly new band, and I think they are awesome! So let's get into it! The intro is very dark and slow, I love that. It has this sad, but mysterious vibe to it. The first verse: "You attack me at my lowest, disregard me on my highs. Once co-parents now opponents, but in this game the child cries. You've stripped them of their innocence, placed them back in the devil's hands. You're filled with hate and ignorance, a bitter soul with high demands." Such incredible lyric work. The pre-chorus: "Go ahead and deflect, let your family reject. All the truth hidden in the lies, a real parent protects. Not forgive and forgets, when their child's life's compromised." Such haunting lyrics, it's honestly so sad that there is parents like this out there in the world. The chorus: "Take one look at your reflection, you're just like them. Filled with lies and imperfections you're just like them. Don't fight the fact your roots are cursed, and your leave's have their disease. You're a rotten apple, used as the example. For your dead family tree." They scream on that last part. I love how they used the wording on this track, like to talk about such a difficult topic. Then bring in this whole, thing about a family member being rotten on the family tree, that's incredible! Moving on to the second verse: "Don't forget all the times I helped you, when I had nothing I could gain. Never held our daughter from you, even when I hated you in vein. I never used her as a weapon, because I know what it feels like. To have a mother resent a father, based on all her own dislikes." Wow, the fact that he could have chosen, not to let their daughter see her mom. But he chose not not, because he didn't want her to see her parents hate each other. That's a real class act, and a great thing to do. The bridge, has screaming, and it's amazing. Also the instrumentals pick up speed, and it's great. "You're rotten to me, my forgotten, my no more. You're rotten to the core, my forgotten, my no more. F*** you." Sounds like he moved on. There is an outro on this track, that has lyrics. After the chorus repeats, there's this set of lyrics. "Now you're dead to me, dead to me, dead to me." Screaming them of course. The vocals on this track are also really amazing, and I feel like the metal core genre is alive and well. Which is awesome! 

That's it for this review, I will see you in the next one, happy listening :)
