Earth Cry

“Earth Cry”. The song is of massive contrasts. “The screaming planet”. It starts with the lead guitar screaming out in anger. It screams in protest throughout the song right at the point of distortion. “The harmonious planet”. The piano and strings portray a mellow planet. “The dependable Planet”. The jazzy rhythm guitar portrays mother earth as, dependable and solid. It is consistent in temperament and volume, even while the lead guitar is screaming in protest, the rhythm guitar does the opposite, restoring harmony and balance.
