The band notes of the song, “There’s only but so much mental & physical affliction + oppression the human psyche can indoor before they reach the pinnacle of no return. I think we’ve all had our moments where we’re fed up, our mind isn’t rational, our eyesight is only seeing red & within that sequence, emotions can get the best of us, if any. The first single is aimed to focus on once past the conscience state of no return anything is liable to happen when pushed past your limits.”

Dust City Opera Releases New Single “The Unkind” // Sophomore Album ‘Alien Summer’ Out March 4

“Musically, we’re a gothic grunge orchestra,” shares Hunton. “For me, opera suggests an epic drama. We’ve applied the grandeur of opera to a rock band. Our new single ‘The Unkind’ paints a picture of trees uprooting themselves over a Halloween dance vibe. It’s a murderous plant race that comes out of hibernation once in a generation for a night of horror. They prey on humanity and go back to sleep. As a whole, Alien Summer is meant to be a harrowing adventure. There’s some exhaustion, but there are also many moments of relief. I hope you feel like you were on this journey with us.”

Next-Gen R&B Singer Songwriter Julian King Releases Emotionally Charged New Single “Can We Go Back”

When asked about “Can We Go Back” Julian said, “I remember sitting in my room recording this record, not knowing it would be the very song that would begin my healing, from one of the most trying dating experiences to date. I found my heart in the palm of what now feels like a stranger, and making the decision to walk away was utterly gut-wrenching. That universal feeling of wanting to go back to the days where your stomach fluttered at the sight of his name on my phone, is something I will always credit him the author for. Yet, it’s from this song on that I started writing and feeling in a way that directly mirrored the exact chapter in my story of love, which was something I didn’t do often or as intentionally. I describe this song as the backbone to the emotion of this next era of mine, and the catalyst for boys like me feeling seen. Ironically before I let him go, he ended up loving the song and requesting to hear it all the time. As much as I loved that he loved it, I knew it was over at that point. This song is for all the lovers”
