SINGLE REVIEW: Sextape - Blitzkrieg

'Blitzkrieg' emerges as a sonic force, releasing an unbridled onslaught propelled by its harsh and attacking guitars. These guitars, in synergy with explosive, driven, yet fuzzed-out tones, find solid grounding in a gritty bass and thunderous drums. The vocals, a dynamic force of their own, infuse the song with vitality, breathing life into the cutting and cynical lyricism and creating an exciting and expansive sonic landscape.

This hard-hitting post-punk gem not only showcases the prowess of bright melodic guitars but also highlights an aggressive rhythm section that skillfully juxtaposes melody and dissonance. Sextape, through the intricate weave of their music, unfolds a compelling narrative, offering 'Blitzkrieg' as a poignant love letter to the city of Johannesburg. This musical journey is a reflection, both romantic and stark, honest in its portrayal of the city's essence.

The unrefined, explosive, and frantic nature of their sound amplifies the emotional impact, delivering a captivating and raw musical experience. 'Blitzkrieg' stands as a testament to Sextape's ability to transcend musical boundaries, creating an immersive journey for the listener that goes beyond simple notes and rhythms.
