so we wrote this one, and was kinda like fuck it’s pretty emo hey, so we just called it “emo song” for a long while. we felt it was kinda like a sick 2000s emo song, so we thought we’d stick with that ya know and call it “Guilt_emo_rs_song.mp3” kinda like a dodgy file name of a track you just downloaded onto your family computer in 2005 via limewire and it was a virus or some totally other song or someshit ANYWAYS the song its self here is what Jaz has to say bout it, when trying to write a blurb for the cunts at spotify trying to do a pitch for it:
“No strangers to a bit of angst, Western Australian three-piece RATSALAD. have dipped their pens into the black ink for their moody new track ‘guilt_emo_rs_song.mp3’. While staying true to RATSALAD.’s riff-heavy melodic punk rock sound, ‘guilt_emo_rs_song.mp3’ is oozing with emotive guitars, vulnerable vocals and subtle screams in a nod to the 2000’s emo era. Vocally and lyrically, the song shifts between states of anger, frustration, misery and hope; offering a relatably personal response to the mental and emotional struggle of being spread too thin whilst trying to maintain a balance of responsibility and personal fulfillment.”
