Unfortified Castle

It's an excellent pop track on its own, it came with an album announcement, and its message is welcome as I work through internal matters.

The ever-excellent band combine classic rock influences with their modern indie sound on a recent single.

*deep breath* This is a pretty personal piece, but that's because of what this song means and has meant to me.

In hindsight, these styles are perfect for each other — unlike the former relationship the song describes. Bravo, ILLENIUM and Jon Bellion.

The memories will always be there, and Zara Larsson and MNEK's presentation of working through them really resonates with me.

Gabriel's vocal and instrumental arc work in lock step to form a marvelously complete, love-centered narrative.

The Aston Shuffle expertly execute a slow, but sure build, capping it off with the most satisfying release in the final break.
