The agony of stardom begins to reveal itself in theobnoxious track “Sever.” This track features snarling vocals and steamy metal melodies that sound like a devious couple who is torn between passion and pain. The rebellious man in the so-called relationship wants a quick fix to satisfy his innermost desires while the woman wants the so-called romance to move ata slower pace so in an attempt to avoid heartache. Meanwhile, the agony of stardom continues to roll on full steam ahead in theraunchy track “Damn.” This track features slithering vocals and blistering Metal melodies that sound like an arrogant man is deceiving a beautiful woman by romancing her on a hot night. Then, leaving her heartbroken and alone in a dimly lit hotel room because the arrogant man is as sneaky as the Devil himself.
