SINGLE REVIEW: LASTRY - Look At Me Now!
'Look At Me Now' radiates a polished sound accompanied by beautifully emotive lyrics. It masterfully blends tenderness with a bold attitude, skillfully contrasting moments of vulnerability post-love with the brutal realisation that follows the healing process.
This power rock ballad is stunning, featuring sweeping riffs and rolling drums that dynamically intensify as resentment grows. The song smoothly transitions from a slow, downtrodden soundscape to an eruption of anger, altering tempo to forcefully convey a burst of fiery rage. The vocals shift from soft and sincere, with a captivating wave of heartbreak, to a highly impassioned blast of fire-driven rage.
‘Look At Me Now!’ serves as a companion for the heartbroken, a powerful anthem demonstrating that there will be a day when clouds lift and hurt transforms into hate. Rising from the lowest point, you will find the strength to no longer care.
LASTRY showcases their dynamism as musicians, delivering a sound that is both gritty and flawless. Emotion permeates this 3 and a half-minute soul-searching journey.
