Gritty, mid-tempo blues-rock swagger in E major, 4/4 with a lazy, lopsided groove. Sloppy-yet-tight rhythm section: loose, low-tuned snare backbeat, thudding kick on 1 & 3, walking electric bass with melodic slides. Sarcastic, weathered male lead vocal—nasal, drawled, half-spoken verses bursting into strained, full-throated, dissonant wails. Two overdriven electric guitars: one chugging open-position riffs with dead-string chops, the other adding stinging, bent, microtonal fills. Sparse harmonica darting in verse gaps. Temple-block percussion rattle. Raw live-room ambience, no reverb tails, slight tape saturation. Defiant, snarling, weary.
