Start Writing Fiction - week 1 (second attempt)

(False 3, True 1) - this music review replaces the original piece called 'Ten Seconds'

The first impression was that this could have been the soundtrack to unspeakable acts of torture in Orwell’s Room 101. One single strand of order gradually became evident. Ignoring the manic shrieking from the two vocalists (‘singers’ not being an appropriate term) and the discordant, agonised thrashing of a cheap Les Paul clone, the bass guitar gamely attempted to provide some structure. It was a hopeless, losing battle. The keyboard was attacked with gusto, making an energetic contribution to the overall dissonance. The rest of the band galloped along enthusiastically on their own separate journeys in pursuit of a common goal -  to assassinate ‘Livin on a Prayer’.  Finally it ended. The performance received wild applause. Schizopunk had arrived.
