Suno prompt

A menacing metal track blending punk with explosive energy and a broken-beat feel at 146 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a cracking and compressed snare and tight closed hats. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A gritty male vocal delivers a raw and unpolished performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a dub-style tape delay on the vocal. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding vocal clarity and low-end weight, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a tense and coiled atmosphere.

Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
