The distorted guitar is already moving in tight pieces; the beat locks it into a narrow, fast lane.

The voice enters close and dry, sitting in the midrange rather than floating above the guitars.

This next vocal stretch rides the same machine; the backing does not loosen to make room.

The lead guitar takes the top edge now, high and busy, while the rhythm underneath keeps its seat.

When the voice returns, the mix narrows back toward the midrange; the band has been running the whole time.

The instrumental middle is not an exhale. Cymbal, bass, and guitar keep repeating the same forward shove.

The voice comes back without softening the track; its cleaner edge has to lean through the guitar grain.

The last vocal entrance is brief and pressed forward, with little extra space around it.

The ending cuts the motor off in one stroke; the room empties almost immediately.
