1Overall Description
There's definitely an ominous and a looming presence of evil -type of mood in this tune. The tune is minimalistic in it's use of elements, which is definitely good in this type of music imo -less is more. This sounds very soundtrackish to my ears, and even though I'm not a big fan of this type of music, this works well, despite the somewhat cheesy "fuckoff" -shouts here and there.
 
2Creativity Description
Again, I'm not an expert in industrial music so it's kinda hard to tell. There's a certain flavor to the types of sounds popular in industrial (well, in every genre of course :D), and this tune follows in the footsteps of those. The minimalistic soundscape and slow-paced rhythm sound rather fresh, but the sounds could've maybe been tweaked a bit more here and there.. Perhaps some more stuff to the high-end spectrum?
 
3Arrangement Description
No complaints here.
 
4Sound Quality Description
The bass section could use some more punch imo, but otherwise everything sounds balanced and the different elements are clearly distinguished from each other.
 
5Vocals Description
This is the weak part - in the beginning and at the end they fit well, but the swearwords sprinkled here and there just sound kinda glued on - I think the song would be much better without them, or just with a couple of them.
 
6Does it work as a piece of music Description
