- pulsating synth line
- drums enter, heavy crunching
- hi hat, dancy, enters
- vox enter, doubled, hard panned falsetto
- chorus: very heavy, ‘god is dead’ – shouting, heavy distortion
- riff kicks in pre verse 2
- verse 2 vox build to become quadrupled (harmonies)
- final chorus features mirrored vox performance, hard left
- marching boots sfx used in beat, machine noises (noticeable in the outro)
KEY IDEAS to plunder
- vox layering
- sfx (marching boots, machines) become percussion
