The lyrics portray a heart swaying between a dream-like reality and a reality that feels like a dream.

The comfort of indulging in fantasy and the bittersweet need to wake from it are conveyed through the delicate layering of their voices.

An anecdote from a 2024 music festival—where Troye took the stage wearing Guitarrica’s T-shirt—also speaks to the depth of their bond.

It tells a story of rebirth—finding a voice through pain—sung with vocals that blend aching tenderness and raw strength.

The visualizer, laced with glitches and noise, heightens the psychedelic mood and further accelerates the world it builds.

The album housing this song, THE WHEEL, is their first studio release in nine years, said to distill the band’s entire journey into one record.

The band—multiple-time Grammy nominees—has sparked buzz by pivoting from the love-forward approach of their album TANGK to an explosive, raw energy reminiscent of their early days.

Put it on when you want to blast away that helpless sense of anxiety or the suffocating monotony of everyday life—you’ll feel instantly refreshed.

The intertwining heavy bass and synths are sure to supercharge your weekend nights.

Originally slated to close out the album KP3, the track was released early in July 2025 after the overwhelming response it received at live shows led to a sudden decision to put it out as a single.
