Love the trace of last week’s song in the start. Like last week, I’m hearing serious Front Bottoms influence. Your delivery on “caring is inconvenient” is SO good. I think the production on this song is really solid. Also very much about the message. Your use of “Pump The Brakes” does not disrupt the song – That is, it fits. To be honest, when I first read your lyrics I was worried they were too on the nose - And I think a less convincing vocal delivery wouldn’t handle them correctly. Your voice cracks are excellent and raw. It's a good pop punk track, and you sold the lyrics really well.

Are you really only 23? You’re awesome! You can write a song! Excellent lyrics! Excellent performance! I love the emotion of the delivery. This is amazing.

the way you blend acoustic and electric guitar sounds is great, I love the general sound of this. Excellent stop-start rhythms in the guitars too. Lyrics are mostly very good again, although "I don't think that is fine" struck me as slightly clunky wording? The sentiment hits home though, you’ve found another good target for your anger though and this is a great companion piece to last week's song.

I grew up in a religious right wing family & community so I can clearly picture the people you’re targeting here. This is not a topic or POV I can claim to understand at all, but the performance & lyrics in this song are extremely powerful. It’s not your typical diss track, this is more wishing for understanding & revenge than straight up disses. I think this song is great, and might end up being the best of Nur Ein 14 in terms of evoking raw emotion. When I take into account the challenge & the music (which is a little to muddy for my liking) it will fall in this rounds ranking a bit. Great work though.

I wasn’t sure about the stuttering intro at first, but this song is really amazing, and really really important. Your vocal delivery is impeccable. The drop in instrumentation at the bridge and then slow build into the chorus is amazingly done. This is truly great, and even though it’s more of a rage track than a diss track, I don’t care. Stuck it to them and sing your heart!

you're killing it with the indie rock vibes, great vocals and energy. cool lyrics. even if I hadn't read your comments on the boards I'd hear that you are singing about something that actually means something to you. definitely helps to draw me in.

I haven't gotten a chance to finish writing up reviews of any earlier rounds, so I haven't gotten the chance to say this yet, but I wanted to tell you I have been super impressed with your songs so far and they've been favorites every time--they're just totally up my alley genre-wise; and they are catchy, thoughtfully produced and well written and performed, and feel honest and heartfelt. This is no exception. My main complaint about this song is just the thing I mentioned up at the top of the review, that I wouldn't call this a "diss track" so much as a song expressing justifiable rage. And the phrasing "I don't think that that is fine" feels slightly awkward to me, also. But in general I just really loved this song. I like the little parts where your voice feels like it's cracking from the intensity, and the lyrics from "i'm not saying that you killed someone..." to "...i hope you have no-one left" are brutal. Just keep doing what you're doing! If you are actually 23, I'm kind of mad that you're only 23 and making such ridiculously good music!

Summary: Another catchy tune with great tones and emotion. Very similar to last week's, yet different enough.
Challenge: I'm having difficulty coming up with a challenge for you, because you've got a good variety within a good sound already. How about: write a slow song and put those emotions to more effective use.
