Suno prompt

A restless hard rock track blending indie rock with high energy and a swung feel at 136 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a brushed snare and sparse dark cymbals. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, fingerpicked. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A warm male vocal delivers a layered in close harmony performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a wide stereo chorus on the vocal. Mixed in a lo-fi and saturated style, foregrounding vocal clarity and melodic lead, 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.
