Creatively taking its time to build & envelop listeners entirely, Crimson Calamity’s single Ghost proves an artistic & deeply emotive hit of story & song, with a powerful sense of humanity & depth at its core.
An absolute anthem of a folk-pop hit – you can’t help but get swept away on the brightness & positivity of the whole thing.
Stylishly uniting the fast-paced power-chords of pop-punk, with the melodic-rap tendencies of contemporary hip hop.
The kind of song that will easily suit the moment of reintroduction – that day when we are finally able to meet up in groups and celebrate our freedom and overcoming.
Ambient sound design, poetic conceptualisation, and intriguing artwork – Mirrors starts off strong & refuses to lower the bar throughout.
I Imagined A Window is a bit of a rollercoaster. It feels organic and authentic and thrilling, with a dusting of electronics, and, best of all, autotune has been given the day off. Good shout. Where the paint has peeled, it’s only added character and gravity to the ride and I, for one, want to go round again. It’s blown the cobwebs away!
Stunning, in short – a completely unique take on contemporary songwriting & performance, with a level of theatre & imaginative art that proves distinctly gripping, and increasingly likeable with each revisit to the song.
Beautifully done, addictive with its dance-pop brightness & seductive, interesting melody. Perhaps the most unique yet still impressive alt-pop single to emerge this side of 2020.
A retro yet fresh track, feeling brand new yet simultaneously nostalgic in style & set-up. The final moments of Higher see the listener immersed in this chaotic, swirling arena of vocal and musical layers & details.
The whole thing makes for an emotional progression, addictive for its focus on smiling through struggle, uplifting yet understanding in its openness.
You can feel the stage-ready energy, and still the lyrics intrigue & draw you in closer. The song satisfies and refreshes, feels nostalgic & exciting in its newness all at once.
