Ruby –
strong paced drumming intro with a defined clacking bass, bringing the vocal with a round sound and direct feel. then the guitar blending in, some nice echo string bend, drum paced throughout keeping you bouncing. mid-way through a subtle guitar short solo, a mini change of feel. ending of a running guitar riff solo and twang ending giving its haunting feeling.
