Music & Bands | Out now
Dutch rising stars Neverskin are back with Consumed, their fourth single and the first in a brand-new run of releases. Heavier, darker and more cinematic than anything they have put out before, it is a track the band themselves describe as their best work yet.
Here are five reasons to give it a listen.
1. It marks the start of a new era
Consumed is the first song in a fresh line of releases, and it deliberately steps away from Neverskin’s earlier work. If you already know the band, expect a clear evolution. If you don’t, this is the perfect place to jump in.
2. Those drop F guitars are crushing
The band have tuned right down to drop F for this one, giving the guitars a weight and depth that hits hard from the opening riff. It is their heaviest sound so far, without losing any of the melody.
3. Big, catchy choruses meet emotional vocals
Neverskin have built a reputation for choruses that stick in your head, and Consumed keeps that promise. The heavy verses give way to soaring hooks and deeply felt vocals, making it a track that works as well on a long drive as it would live.
4. A modern mix that still sounds raw
The band chose a fresh, modern approach to mixing and mastering, while holding on to the raw, organic energy that many polished modern productions lose. The result sounds big and clean, but still feels like real people playing in a room.
5. Lyrics that let you find your own meaning
Consumed grew out of a personal, reflective process, but the lyrics are written in a metaphorical way that leaves plenty of room for interpretation. Listeners can bring their own struggles, inner conflicts and changes to the song, which is exactly what makes it hit so hard.
