Suno prompt

A restless punk track with high energy and a syncopated 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 washy crash-led cymbals. Clean electric guitar carries the harmony, block chords. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A gritty male vocal delivers a raw and unpolished performance. Tape saturation adds texture, with a slapback delay on the vocal. Mixed in a dense and compressed 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.
