Ste Walkerβs βBittersweet Emotionβ is quite an emotional track, with its angry expressionism developed within the grunge rock genre. The lyrics are quite straightforward, but Ste Walker spits the words like angry assertions. But hey, they work just fineβin fact, they work in perfect harmony with the heavy and low electric guitar riffing delivered by none other than Ste Walker himself, creating a powerful experience that draws you in from the very beginning.
The dark melody and steady drum beat set the tone for the song as Ste Walkerβs stern and jawed tone takes center stage as he proceeds his tirade. Something about his voice is vulnerable, which really soaks up the βbittersweet emotion,β conveying the depth of emotion in the lyrics. He sings of being betrayed while his voice is overlaid with a falsetto singing the line,βbittersweet emotionβ in a softer tone and a slower tempo.
The instrumentation is simple yet effective with a combination of drums and Martyn Bewickβs bass, creating a rich, layered sound that perfectly complements Ste Walkerβs vocals and distorted guitars. The guitar riffs are especially noteworthy, adding a touch of bluesy rock to the song and giving it an edge.
Overall, βBittersweet Emotionβ is a powerful and beautifully crafted song that showcases Ste Walkerβs talent as a singer, songwriter, and guitarist. Itβs a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that comes and goes from the heart. Combining rock with a slower tempo and a calmer exterior instead of the usual roaring rock music, Ste Walker proves himself to be an original with his punk vibes coveted with his gnarly soft voice alongside his brutal guitar play.
