Having completed their label deal and launched a new chapter as an independent act, they released this track in October 2025—a fierce number that hurls raw anger at relationships built on lies and deceit.

Fusing aggressive guitar riffs with rap, the track delivers the heaviest sound in the band’s history, making it a fitting opener for their self-titled sixth album, Set It Off, due in November.

Packed with a counterattack against those who have exploited their kindness, this song will resonate deeply with anyone who’s been wounded by betrayal and hypocrisy.

Released in October 2025, this track is the lead single from their forthcoming album Riviera, due in October.

With distorted synthesizers and aggressive beats colliding, the song feels like a powerful declaration of presence—an emphatic “we’re here.” After making their major-label debut with the 2024 album LL, the duo presents an ambitious work that showcases their continued evolution.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking genre-defying music that resonates on both the dance floor and in the art gallery.
