Koburg’s latest single, “Strike Back (Twister Version),” is a powerful and epic symphonic metal track that showcases the Winchester based artist’s breadth of capabilities as an arranger and songstress. As a one-woman band, Koburg writes, performs, and records all of her own music, and “Strike Back” is a testament to this skill and dedication.
The song is inspired by Koburg’s struggles with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Agoraphobia, and it tells the story of overcoming obstacles in one’s path. The song is loud, intense, and deeply moving, and its grandiose arrangements and symphonic brilliance are almost orchestral in their scope.
One of the standout features of “Strike Back” is its ability to combine the aggression and drive of metal with a strong melodic understanding. The result is a rousing and stirring vision that is both universally appealing and deeply personal. Overall, “Strike Back (Twister Version)” is an instant addiction for fans of melodic metal, bringing out the best of an artists internal struggle in a universal fashion.
