Apollos Burning redefines point of view with new release “skewed”
Apollos Burning‘s new single, “Skewed,” is a powerful and moving song that doesn’t just ask listeners to hear differently, it also asks them to see differently. From the very first atmospheric guitar sounds, the song creates a world that seems a little off-kilter, as if reality itself doesn’t want to stay in place.
“Skewed” moves between opposites with no fear. The smooth, melodic vocals draw the listener in with a sense of vulnerability, then shift to harsher, more intense tones that give the song a mainstream metal edge. This duality is the heart of the song, showing the emotional tension of not fitting into strict social norms and instead celebrating the beauty of imperfection.
The song’s lyrics and ideas are very introspective. They look at what it means to live with a “skewed” perspective, one that doesn’t conform and instead finds meaning in the bent, broken, and unusual. The song has a cinematic, almost dreamlike quality thanks to images like “a city bending sideways” and the idea of “beauty in the bending.”

Henry Desira returns with renewed purpose on latest release “hopeful forever”
Henry Desira’s “Forever Hopeful” is a meaningful return to songwriting, a deeply personal release rooted in reflection, perseverance, and emotional honesty. Rather than sugar-coating life’s difficulties with simple optimism, the song embraces uncertainty and emphasizes the subtle resilience that enables us to carry on. It’s more than a return; it’s a creative renaissance after a difficult time away from music due to mental health issues.
“Forever Hopeful” is a heartfelt song. The song is about the fact that there is still hope even when things seem too big. Henry Desira doesn’t make life seem easy, but rather embraces the complexities of life and reminds the listener that difficult moments don’t negate the possibility of brighter days ahead.
