Wow, JAPOV...

This is a really cool song. I like the contrast of the upbeat tempo against the semi-dark, brooding tone of the lyrics.
My only nit (if you can even call it that) would be the backing vocals not being completely in sync with the lead. I realize this is likely intentional to give it a more live-version feel.
But I only mention it because, a as first time listener I wanted to hear and understand the words and the difference became distracting.
Regardless, I like the song. I think your use of the BOSS VE-8 is spot on.

Well done, sir!

Peace,

Dave
