Track analysis:

6 – Chained to You

A groovy slap bass line takes over as slow tempo, splashy drums and alluring guitar riffs make their entrance. Sliding guitar riffs and simple hi-hat + bass drum beat shape the suggestive verses, making the song exude a forbidden, alluring vibe.

The chorus is rather simple with the guitars exploring tones and pedals to create the slightly overdriven and sliding fun that is this song.

This time around the vocals are simple, requiring much less vibrato from Makoto Furukawa, instead focusing his technique into adding a funky yet dangerous touch to this song.

A nice change of pace for the band but it is already starting to form a kind of pattern. It was interesting to find RUBIA Leopard being comfortable in slow-tempo rock tunes instead of shredding like crazy. Fun song and all-rounded performance make this song yet another solid entry.
