The raw passion & energy that Elisabeth brings to the song is infectious, motivational even, and the finish production-wise gives everything the power it needs to strike hard.
Stunning. A totally immersive & addictively emotional song that sky-rockets Zach Andersen to a whole other level of songwriting.
The music is immense, the hook is familiar in an instant, and so when the energy reaches that peak you can barely contain your inclination to sing along. It’s a mighty song made all the more powerful by its delivery.
There’s a strong connection between artist & music when crafted & composed originally, from the heart. The album is one to await if you love rock, pop-rock, impressive guitar work, and just about anything in between.
Not enough artists in hip hop are pushing to make these kind of waves anymore, so this is a joy to discover. A really well crafted & thoughtful project. Great music.
Three minutes & forty seconds of precise audio representation for the concept implied by the title. The music has the rhythm & rising intensity of a somewhat epic march towards something meaningful.
A welcome reminder of the classic Depeche Mode approach to music & performance, the likes of which aren’t found all that often in modern music. There’s a sense of seductive drama to it all, the essence of which Dobie has captured pretty perfectly.
A classic hip hop backdrop & vibe – thick beats, rhythm, simple & scene-setting chord progressions. The artist flaunts his own approach to performance & lyricism, adjusting to the changing pace of the music accordingly.
The structure of this is everything, the sounds are unquestionable – the intro is peaceful & reflective, calming, but it’s the rising level of complexity, the increasing details, that really make this something special.
The effects make it feel as if you’re seeing something you shouldn’t be, leaked footage maybe, which adds to that element of drama & makes sense alongside of the song’s subject matter.
This meeting of personal reality & the cinematic world of horror works well. The soundscape showcases equal parts of each – the screams, the fear, the detail, and the undeniably emotional, dramatic leading voice.
