Music Tuesday #286: Escapism

Leave me in the dirt
What you do to me?

Lyrics that caught my attention, then I started paying attention to the music.  Then I put this song on repeat.  Yes, this is a banger.  Leaning to a punk song but with a respectable length of just over 3 minutes, it urges you to listen and pushes forward with unstoppable force. 

"Escape" is a departure into melodic alt-rock and punk, swapping Ho99o9's usual industrial-trap chaos for washed-out guitars and a melancholic vibe. The track is built on protruding bass plucks and jagged shreds, featuring a hook-heavy chorus where Yeti Bones' powerful shouts are softened by ghostly backing harmonies. Positioned early on the 2025 record Tomorrow We Escape, it acts as a transition that eases the listener into the album's more abrasive themes of societal rebirth and personal struggle.
