Invasion - new rock song, weird time signatures
I just released a new song 'Invasion', a hard rock tune above the last survivor of an alien invasion. Any thoughts or feedback?

It has this somewhat dirty live character, very nice! Ah, yes,
when the vocals come in, the live character remains.
Great guitar work, nice polyphonic singing. However - in production
the song still has unbelievable potential!

Another good job Phil.
Is that a Lake Placid blue strat you're playing in the header pic on your site? I've got one as well.

Thanks! I agree there is a lot of untapped potential in this tune. I didn't chase that direction after a certain point because this already took around 9 months to get where it is, and I needed to move on. Some of the stuff I was considering were backwards rhythm guitars, synthesizer leads, added field-recorded 'found sounds'.
The 5 beat lead fills were sort of a bitch to get right...

Ah, that is a Frankenstrat I picked up for 300 bucks. Not too bad, though the tone doesn't quite 'ring' like a true Fender. Still love it, even with it's limitations.

Sounds great!
The only thing that bugged my ear was the reverb sounds 180° out of phase with itself. Not sure if intended but figured I'd mention.

Interesting. I'll have to see if the reverb collapses when in mono.
I been mixing reverb in the Side channels lately.
Thanks for the feedback.

It was based on a dream I had after reading too many sci-fi books. I picked the weird time sigs to complement the weirdness of the topic.
