Black Tie Collapse
Chaotic elegance. Electro Swing brass and glitch-hop stutter rhythms collide with down-tuned metal guitars and thunderous drums. The song swings between class and carnage — big-band breakdowns meet industrial guitar punches. Vocals are a mix of slick, venomous spoken-word, frantic shouts, and theatrical snarls. Think ballroom on fire with a mosh pit on the dance floor.

Lyrics
Intro – Dissonant piano run into blast of horns, industrial noise buildup, distorted guitar feedback crashing into a glitchy swing beat
Welcome to the gala of beautiful mistakes,
Velvet on my throat and dynamite in cakes.
Verse 1 – Bouncy tuba groove chopped with stuttering snare fills, slap bass mixed with fuzz guitar
Waltz in steel-toed shoes,
Drink champagne with broken screws.
Ballet of the bruised and loud,
Where silence is banned, and shame is proud.
Pre-Chorus – Stop-start brass/guitar rhythm, rising tempo, vocals switch to half-scream
I kiss disaster on both cheeks,
The chandelier swings — and everything leaks.
Chorus – Exploding guitars over swing rhythm, brass hooks distorted, vocals shouted in rhythm
Black tie collapse — toast to the end,
Violin on fire, no need to pretend.
Crash through crystal, bite the rose,
Manners melt as the madness grows.
Verse 2 – Funky swing loop layered under gritty guitar riff, vocals faster and more spoken
Slicked my hair with oil and spite,
Signed the guestbook with a fistfight.
Cufflinks loaded, spit formal lies,
My etiquette’s sharp and weaponized.
Bridge – Breakdown with bass-heavy glitch-hop beat, calliope keys warped, spoken vocal over static
Welcome, dear guests —
to the final waltz of the aristocrat wrecks.
Please keep your masks on…
as we grind this ballroom into dust.
Final Chorus – Double tempo, heavy guitars roaring, brass fighting the rhythm, vocals fully unhinged
Black tie collapse — the spotlight dies,
Tango with wreckage beneath gold skies.
Bow at the ruins, curtsy the blaze,
Swing til we fall through the end of days.
Outro – Distant brass loop echoing, fading with feedback and glitched accordion stab
(distant voice) “Encore, anyone?”
