Polemicaโs latest offering, โโฆand nowโฆ,โ is a riveting 10-track odyssey that delves headfirst into the ever-contrasting realms of hope and despair. This album is an unapologetic question mark, challenging societal norms and wrestling with questions of identity, all underscored by an unwaveringly independent spirit. It blends genre-bending elements like Punk, Funk, Noise, Rock, and Experimental music. This musical tapestry embarks on a journey that will keep you both musically entertained and intellectually engaged.
Launching the album is โParanoia,โ a track that immediately thrusts you into a world of unease. The haunting and repetitive chant of โparanoiaโ begins the song. The pulsating drumbeats alongside an eerie and unsettling atmosphere set an arresting overture to the thematic exploration.
โRoe v Wade (Hey! Donโt Touch That),โ the fourth track, injects more of the dose of funky exuberance into the mix above an insistent drumbeat. The songโs message begins as a direct and assertive warning, โHey! Donโt touch that. Itโs not yours. Put that back.โ Yet, it swiftly metamorphoses into a vehement and emphatic poetic recital. The bridge of the song ignites with jamming guitars and pounding drums while spirited and funky vocals take center stage.
โIsolation,โ track number seven, kicks off with an irresistibly groovy melody. As the album draws to an enigmatic close, โTranny Meโ steps in with introspective piano melodies. A tender and passionate voice takes the spotlight, singing softly and melodically. The voice soars to ethereal heights, infusing the music with raw emotional depth and vulnerability.
โโฆand nowโฆโ is an audacious statement. Listen to โโฆand nowโฆโ by Polemica in the world of independent music.
