Rising kings to the metalcore scene Melrose Avenue shared their newest single ‘Bad Guy’ over the weekend as they kicked off their headline US and European tour and it’s one of their heaviest tracks yet.
The single packs a punch, exploring themes of betrayal and hurt when someone you trusted decides to twist the story and stab you in the back. The lyrics offer the ability to be seen and when paired with the heavy instrumentals and raw vocals, presented the feeling of catharsis that had me playing the track on repeat all night.
“There’s been this shadow that’s been hanging over me for years, and ‘Bad Guy’ was finally my way of confronting it. It comes from that raw place of betrayal – when someone you trust turns on you and paints you as the villain just to lift themselves up. This song is me owning that narrative and calling it out for what it really is.”
