Score Info

I have to say, this was not really what I thought Slayer's theme would be like in Strive. It still fits him very well, it just went in a direction I wasn't expecting. Mainly in making it a bit calmer than his other themes. I still really like it though!
Melody
Pretty good. I like the piano a lot, and of course the saxophone/ trumpet is perfect for Slayer.
Evolution
I really like how the chorus changes on each repetition. Each part feels distinct, especially with the changes around them.
Emotion
The chorus has a pretty good amount, and gains more as the song evolves.
Bangerness
VERY good in the chorus.
Characterization
Sounds exactly as a Slayer song souls.
Lyrics
Currently going off of the Clouddrop lyrics, as they are the best interpretation so far. And I really like them! They really capture Slayer's worldview.
