For his latest single, The Jaded Zone, the alt-rock alchemist, The Every Glazer, confided in everyone who can relate to paralysing ennui and can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel that has been blocked by political agendas that weaponize our tribal inclinations to fight tooth and nail to protect our partisan ideals.
There’s no rationalising your way out of the acknowledgement that our society is corroding under contempt, corruption, and prejudice, but there is solace in the recognition that regardless of how powerlessly alienated we feel, we are united in this feeling and can all cast the stones of progressive change and infiltrate the hate with compassion akin to the consolation in The Jaded Zone.
If Cobain was still with us today, he’d be penning grungy post-rock hits that run in the same visceral vein as The Jaded Zone, which uses angular guitars, a backbeat that mimics a frantic heartbeat and evocative classical strings to bring emotion back to the surface.
