Share a track by your favorite vocalist of all-time.

I am going to go a little counter with this one and pick my favorite hardcore vocalist of all time: Tim Singer. I've always loved his style and lyrics, no matter which band it's been... No Escape, Deadguy, Kiss It Goodbye, or Bitter Branches.

For the song, I'm picking "War With Strangers" off Deadguy's 2025 album Near-Death Travel Services. The lyrics:

I'm at war with strangers

Scream bad poetry at the sky Fall in love With the wrong guy Steal my bread And I'll steal yours Paint the world red Paint the world red And wish me dead

Build your dreams And your schemes In dark corners Use the words They use words That come with warnings

This is not my making This is not my war So proud to be manipulated Just give me a weapon And some grievances But this is not my war I feel useless

Can I just get a witness? Can I just get

I'm at war with strangers I'm tired of listening to talking heads I'm so tired of walking on еggshells I'm holding my breath I'm holding my breath Whilе I choke on opinions

Can I get a witness?

This is a war This is a war Not of our making The only danger is that we'll trip Over the strings We scratch and claw While they laugh and watch We are tonight's entertainment

I don't care I don't care It's none of my business The clothes you wear The bed you share It's none of my business

our fake friends in the air It's none of my business

The poisons you inhale The tales that you tell The opinions that you fake

Do whatever it takes It's none of my business

It's none of my business
