Riveting , engaging, and melodic. Metrophobia’s latest single, the weakness anthem titled ‘Kryptonite for the Superman’ is far from a sombre and melancholic piece. Loaded with a pulsating riff, the song definitely finds a space in the more appealing aesthetic of radio-friendly rock music that’s driven primarily by melody guided rock tunes. The vocals are also pained and longing, giving the tune a more mellow yet energetic confluent energy. You find yourself head banging through some parts, but singing along with immense emotion at others. It’s catchy as hell without a doubt.
The song relates to the struggles of a woman searching for a decent man, tired of ending up with egocentric losers pretending to be someone else. For those who just want an injection of rock in their playlists, something that’s catchy and melodic above all else, this is the perfect addition.
