“Call It” by Sunset Salore stirs an anthemic tapestry of self-worth

Sunset Salore

The Melbourne-based artist, singer, and songwriter Sunset Salore, known for her enchanting alternative pop sound, returns with “Call It,” a compelling declaration of self-worth that’s both a breath of fresh air and a sonic revelation. This track, the first sneak peek into her upcoming EP, ‘Love Kills the Monsters,’ draws clear inspiration from the charismatic styles of Florence & The Machine, Meg Mac, and Baker Boy musical influences. It’s a unique blend of haunting melodies and profound lyrics that addresses the frustrations and disappointments of leaving that often go unnoticed but collectively signal that it’s time to make a change or reclaim sanity.

Call It” doesn’t tiptoe around the issue with anyone ever feeling undervalued in relationships. It dives headfirst into the micro-moments of relationship dynamics that wear down one’s spirit, capturing the decisive moment when one realizes one deserves more and demands better for oneself. Sunset Salore’s assertive vocals soar over an alternative pop soundscape, making it impossible not to feel the empowerment in her words. What makes “Call It” stand out is its ability to convey a universal sentiment through deeply personal reflections that channel vulnerability into strength.

Musically, “Call It” is a shining example of her sophisticated artistry in production. It was written during a crucial stage in Salore’s creative and introspective period, allowing her to dissect those critical life-changing moments. This makes the song relatable and impactful, enhancing the emotional journey without overshadowing the poignant message.

Sunset Salore challenges the societal tendency to shy away from labeling relationships, emphasizing that how we treat each other holds more weight than any label ever could. Her bold assertion, coupled with her enchanting vibes, make “Call It” a sonic anthem for anyone navigating the crossroads of their self-respect and relationship expectations. It simplifies the equation and raises the bar for what we should demand in our relationships and from ourselves.
