Interestingly, “Music Is My Drug” opens with an infectious pulse of synthetic grooves, immediately drawing us into its vibrant and fast-paced world. It is hypnotic and energizing, setting the stage for a journey that feels as much reflective as it does exhilarating. And then, the opening lines, “Life is sweet and sour, and I’m so seducible to almost every sin,” establish the song’s tone of raw honesty. These lyrics are a confession, a look into the loud emotions that drive the track’s narrative. The low timbre of the songstress weaves seamlessly through the instrumentation, her voice both commanding and vulnerable, resonating with a depth that invites us to lose ourselves in the music, Her delivery is magnetic, and her voice drips with sincerity and a touch of defiance as she delves into themes of passion, regret, and redemption.
Moving on, the chorus: “Music is my drug, I don’t want to stop before I tell my story,” is a powerful declaration. Here, the band lays bare the addictive nature of their art—how music can be both a cure and a source of immense pain. The driving beat and soaring guitars build a sense of urgency as if making music is a lifeline for the artist. The refrain, “I’m not sorry,” echoes throughout the song, a mantra of unapologetic self-expression that speaks to the core of Under Delusion’s ethos. Under Delusion’s ability to connect with us is evident. The lyrics reflect a deep yearning for connection. The line, “I get addicted to your letters, to the secrets that you dare to share” is a moment of vulnerability that humanizes the song. It transforms it from a mere track into a dialogue between us and them.
Now, the production of the song is another beautiful thing. It pulses with energy, and every beat and note is carefully crafted to create an immersive experience. The synths are lush and expansive, the guitars bold and powerful, and the overall mix is perfectly polished. It’s modern, timeless, and a testament to Under Delusion’s ability to blend genres while maintaining a distinct and unmistakable identity.
