Establishing the mood with intricate piano arpeggios and atmospheric vocals, KATIA POJIDAEVA opens Inherited Scars with poetic prowess as she sings, “Circles of illusions, inherited scars, your kids will do what you always dreamed of, when you close your eyes, the dimming glow, your time an unsolicited gift, you’re trying to fit in, but the box is too small for the soul within…”

The opus expands with a high emotional quotient and a thought-provoking concept with cosmic risers and a dimensional, spiritual beat. In essence, Inherited Scars explores the weight of generational trauma and the expectations passed from one generation to the next.

Fans of Evanescence would absolutely love the build into a fierce alternative rock energy with screamo motifs. KATIA POJIDAEVA shares a tale of inherited pain, sacrificed dreams, and a life shaped by fear, conformity and hard work, with a nod to how parents hope their children will achieve what they never could.

The song understands the pain and struggles of previous generations, but Katia chooses not to spend her life carrying someone else’s hopes and regrets. Instead, she becomes her own person. Really, it’s a powerful message with a cinematic allure that would be great for a pivotal scene in a TV show like Nine Perfect Strangers, or a movie like Lady Bird.

As the stadium-ready song evolves with sublime ebbs and flows that keep us enthralled throughout, it becomes a powerful message about finding our own path. It encourages us to stop living by other people’s expectations, and follow our own dreams.

Inherited Scars comes with a striking editorial and epic, avant-garde music video which brings to life the essence of the track and the raw emotional depth in a cinematic way. Needless to say, we are in awe, and have added Inherited Scars to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS playlist, whilst we await future releases from KATIA POJIDAEVA!
