SINGLE REVIEW: Forest and the Tree - My New Obsession

Forest and the Tree’s new single, ‘My New Obsession,’ takes a sharp and insightful dive into the consumer-driven madness that defines our modern world. This indie track is a direct reflection of how social media has turned our desires into a relentless chase, whether we’re obsessing over the latest must-have item or something—or someone—else entirely.

From the start, the song hooks you with its funky beat and commanding drums, laying the groundwork for gravely, powerful vocals that dig into the heart of its theme. Blending alt-rock with indie rock and a touch of blues syncopation, the track creates a sound that’s both intriguing and infectious. The tempo changes are cleverly placed, adding layers of depth and keeping the listener engaged throughout.

The chorus, with its layered vocals, draws you in effortlessly, adding to the song's undeniable appeal. It’s a genuine and heartfelt critique of our social media-fueled culture, wrapped in a tune that’s impossible to ignore. ‘My New Obsession’ is poised to resonate with many, making it a track you’ll want to play on repeat.
