Having featured a slew of Under Delusion’s previous singles, we were stoked to learn that the trio had just released the evocatively titled, Music is My Drug, which is nothing short of a transcendental journey through the power of music – a track that captures the intoxicating nature of sound and emotion.

The song opens with a super-dimensional guitar performance that immediately sets an epic tone. The guitars soar with a raw intensity, creating a powerful backdrop that perfectly complements the atmospheric vocals. The captivating vocal timbre is mesmerizing, much like the band’s overall sound.

With over 10 million streams globally and a dedicated fan base in 130 countries, the visionary trio continues to solidify their place in the synth rock landscape. Music is My Drug is a testament to the universal connection that music fosters, weaving synthetic grooves and rock guitars into a soundscape that is both familiar and refreshingly unique.

Lyrically, Music is My Drug is a profound exploration of the dual nature of music as both a healer and a source of pain. The metaphorical hook, “Music is My Drug, I don’t wanna stop before I tell my story,” encapsulates this beautifully. It speaks to the band’s deep-rooted passion for music and the need to share their experiences through their art. This line alone resonates deeply, hinting at the personal and emotional storytelling that underpins the track.

The guitar performances throughout the song are nothing short of iconic. They drive the track with a relentless energy, showcasing the band’s seasoned musicianship and ability to craft compelling rock anthems. Each riff and solo is executed with precision, adding layers of complexity and depth to the song. The unapologetic nature of the prose is mirrored in the bold and assertive guitar work, creating a cohesive and powerful listening experience.

Sonic ebbs and flows are masterfully orchestrated, keeping us hypnotized from start to finish. The track alternates between intense, driving sections and more atmospheric, introspective moments, creating a dynamic that is both captivating and immersive. This push and pull reflect the emotional intensity that the band aims to convey, drawing listeners into their world and holding them there.

Under Delusion‘s modern mix of genres, inspired by acts like Bring Me The Horizon, Royal Blood, Highly Suspect, and Yonaka, positions them at the forefront of alternative rock. Their ability to balance familiar elements with a distinct identity makes Music is My Drug a standout track. The song’s cinematic quality, often commented on by fans, is evident here, with each note and lyric painting a vivid picture that could easily serve as a film soundtrack.

Naturally, we have added Music is My Drug to our New Music Spotlight playlist, as well as our brand new TIMELESS playlist, whilst we continue to stream the wider discography of Under Delusion, and anticipate future releases from the band!
