Forgotten Anniversary
by @rshakesp
Liner Notes
A little ditty about a marriage long in the tooth
Lyrics
They've been together so long The everyday just passes by Now they've reach the final furlong The hurdles jumped, the end in sight
We still believe This love can work It will survive No need to leave For just one Forgotten Anniversary
He really got it so wrong He's always known, It slipped his mind And she can't take the faux pas She feels so down, and dead inside

the sound textures on the fuzz guitar and the percussion work so freaking well together! when the chorus guitar set in at 0:50 i knew i was in for something special. keep up the bangers this FAWM!!
That's an insanely strong riff there in the intro/post-chorus!!!
Those falsetto parts sound glorious! That guitar riff is down and dirty. Fits the mood! This has almost a post punk vibe. I love it!
Ah I love this one! Lush light and shade between the different sections, great choice of vox verb compliments it perfectly - love the guitar melody too!!
Love the pacing on the verses, the melody on "Hurdles" and "end." The chorus, too, has some dramatic jumps that just wail. I hope your love is surviving well, friend.
Very interesting! I do think it would possibly hit better if it were in the first person: we've been together..... I still believe.....I got it so wrong. I love your vocal and the music has my attention throughout.
Whoa. Liking it. Good angular minor chords. Nice fuzzy guitar tone.
Extremely effective British-tinged goth-rock. The subject matter + style combination almost pulls it into a "black comedy" direction, but the skill and sincere delivery keep it grounded and emotionally resonant.
I'm getting a lot of She Wants Revenge and Arctic Monkeys from it. Very cool.
