Far from what you used to do, except for those long intros (like from the Nightmare tracks), but hey, this is pretty solid for a demo. The end is a bit rough though. I never, ever imagined you were collaborating with a woman vocalist, because that takes it to a whole other level. It's very different.
I always enjoyed your work and wished you'd stick around consistently, because there are sparks in the back of my mind that said your tracks would make a video game soundtrack sing. Such is your skill. It's been like that for well over six years. Everyone around here should give props--you deserve them.
It's hard to say what else is going on in the intro. I really don't get what compels the man to suicide before the track starts up. That can be an issue, a glaring one at that, since the embedding is possibly too subtle. People will wonder what that is and try to fast-forward the track instead, if they listen to the track at all. It's a good opening track on the album, being so solid, or near the tail end. Either way, the intro needs more addressing than the song itself.
Oh, and don't get a supporting vocalist for this track. Maybe other tracks, but please make the endeavor to stand out amidst the rest of the modern scene and have someone who isn't screaming every other lyric. Overall, good job, cheers and beers and hope you have lots of children.
