Target Audience

Due to the 'alternative' nature of the song, I feel the audience in which this song would be best received would be both rock listeners and indie listeners.
This is a song that could be received on many levels, whether the audience absorb the lyrics or the music itself, there is definitely something to appreciate for everyone.

Rock fans, in an extremely stereotypical nutshell, wear leather, have facial hair (only for the men), go to gigs and concerts at every opportunity, ride a motorbike- the louder the more impressive.

Alternative names could be moshers, rockers, grungers or METALHEADS.



"The Metalheads tribe generally sees more people coming and going than other tribes – appeal wanes for many quite quickly. Metalheads feel no need to justify themselves to others, and are generally a friendly badge-wearing bunch but they do have a tendency to hate Chavs and Townies, as well as generally frowning upon the musical tastes of the Emos and Indie Scenesters.

This tribe is keen on mixing up newer and older varieties of metal, punk and rock – so older classic metal bands like Pantera, Metallica and Killswitch Engage have currency as well as more recent, and more experimental, bands such as Cobalt and Converge. "


You’ll mainly see them wearing black, though not exclusively. A black band t-shirt and blue pair of jeans would be the typical look of a Metalhead.
