“Drunk” by Lab Rat shares a soaring anthem of resilience for the broken and brave
The talented British-born, Australian-based artist Dylan James, professionally known as Lab Rat, bares his soul in his new single, “Drunk,” chronicling a gripping alt-rock masterpiece that cuts straight to the bone. Released through Mushroom Pillow, the track presents a visceral blend of grunge-inspired swagger and punk vitality, characterized by evocative guitar riffs and a dynamic rhythm that keeps listeners engaged, anchoring its relentless momentum. Behind the roaring sonics lies a narrative of struggle and survival, an unflinching portrayal of artist Dylan James’ journey through trauma, family discord, depression, and the quest for authenticity.
The song’s atmosphere is electric, drenched in raw emotion and razor-sharp intensity. Lab Rat’s vocal delivery transcends conventional singing, as he conveys deep-seated emotions reflective of personal struggles and hard-earned resilience. Every lyric functions as a confessional, peeling back layers of vulnerability to reveal an artist who is unafraid to expose his darkness.
Recorded at Melbourne’s Singing Bird Recording Studios, “Drunk” carries a production polish that amplifies its grittiness without dulling its edge. The track resonates with the restless spirit of anyone who’s wrestled with their demons and come out swinging.
Lab Rat’s capacity to transform personal suffering into a universal expression of resilience is noteworthy. The track “Drunk” transcends the realm of traditional music; it’s a powerful statement, a battle cry for those on the precipice of despair, urging them to hold on and seek liberation amidst their challenges, ultimately providing a means of transcendence. In this work, Lab Rat exemplifies a candidly defiant stance, embodying a distinct auditory presence when addressing detrimental behaviors and vices while simultaneously resisting the allure of intoxication.

Michael Soul hides from being open with new release “Hiding”
Michael Soul’s new single, “Hiding,” is a dark, hypnotic electronic track that takes listeners to a private place in their minds where they are alone, thinking, and feeling upset. “Hiding” was written when the author was very lonely. Michael Soul turns days of being alone, when silence seemed to last forever, and connection seemed impossible, into an immersive sound.
Andrea Mastroiacovo’s polished work makes the single even better, clarifying and deepening the song’s dark mood. The production carefully reflects that emotional weight with simple textures and dark electronic sounds that make you feel like you’re alone with your thoughts.
“Hiding” is a song about feeling alone, scared, and wanting to hide from being open. It asks questions that are quiet but sharp, like why do we hide what we feel? How does fear ruin love? And can we stop going in circles of misunderstanding and emotional distance? These echoes linger long after the track ends, prolonging the sound.
