Seteca, I just assumed he had plugged in the guitar to a synth pad to get that sound. I'll have to go listen to it again. In the final arrangement, that Renaissance picking sounds like a synthesizer, which provides a nice counterpoint to the power chords and the open-chord strum.
I think this is pretty much a no-frills rocker that the band will use in concert to blast the roof off.
Now, and I hate to be critical again, the drumming here seems a little bit lackluster too. Maybe it's the quality of the audio files, but on most songs I've heard it sounds like Mick keeps doing the same tom/snare beat -- a basic 4/4. What happened to the innovative drumming of Go Your Own Way and Tusk?
