Perceptions gives us a righteously heavy collection of gnarly Hard Rock tracks that are driving and emotive. Slamming drums and crisp distorted guitars pave the way for an edgy, angsty story to be told. You'll be moshing in no time.

The songs run 86 to 120 BPM, in keys like C minor, F minor and B minor, and they're a mix of vocal and instrumental tracks. It's a natural fit for sports, commercials, trailers and TV and news promos. Most songs come with an instrumental, so it cuts to length without a re-edit.
