Straight out of Kiev, this pulsating and rivetingly infectious piece of electronic rock music is bright, neon, and hypnotic all at once. Neon Black Dreams live up to their name, regaling music that’s luscious with its production choices and dreamy in its feeling and tonality. On ‘Scream’, the group take a more aggressive approach, making the tune the very embodiment of rage and passion. It’s a release of emotions, a complete outpouring of all the stress and annoyance that’s holding you back inside. ‘Scream’ leaves you feeling the best kind of catharsis, entirely releasing what’s buried inside. But, at no moment does the song ever descend into actual screaming or unpleasant vocal tones. It’s consistently melodic, almost bearing with a psychedelic and ethereal tone that contrasts its much more outwardly angry release of emotions.
A subtle and poignant catharsis in the best way possible.
