Sophia Mengrosso doses listeners with raw emotion in powerful new single “Medicate Me”
Sophia Mengrosso comes with another captivating single, “Medicate Me,” proving once again why rock and roll will never die. Taken from her new album Unforgiven, this track is visceral, sharp, haunting, and unapologetically raw. From the first guitar riff, “Medicate Me” shakes you by the collar and never lets go.
Sophia’s voice slices through the heavy layers of instrumentation with a sharpness that carries vulnerability and defiance. Every note has a raw ache, and it seems like she’s lived every lyric she sings. It’s the performance that insists on it. From top to bottom, the song teeters above a tightrope groovier than your average modern alternative track, following the grind of classic rock.
Enormous drums and distorted guitars drive the song, and the overall vibe is very dark, which provides the perfect base for Sophia’s intense vocal delivery. It’s both cathartic and chaotic, and the ideal soundscape for anyone who has ever sought the means to numb the chaos inside their head. The single, “Medicate Me,” is about the urge and desire for an escape, for anything, to cut through the constant white noise of existence. Sophia accomplishes flinching from the human heart’s dark places. She plunges headlong into them, providing no easy answers, only the harshness of truth. It’s fresh air to hear an artist strip everything bare like this, without polish or pretense.
The single, “Medicate Me,” cuts through like the heart of the record, raw, relentless, and rhythmic. For die-hard rock fans in a universe of overproduced anthems, Sophia Mengrosso is the real deal. If you’re prepared to feel something, “Medicate Me” is the track to press play on. Sophia Mengrosso is writing anthems for the bruised, the broken, and the beautifully defiant.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”
“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.
This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.
In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.
“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
