Lies Kill - Fear the Future

You fear your own worth

Baltimore’s Lies Kill have released the second single from Everything Is Memory, due next March. Partly a tribute to bands like Linkin Park, “Fear the Future” pushes these influences into unknown territory. It’s an expansive mix of nu metal, industrial, and pop that will shred your expectations and your speakers.

Emerging from a cloak of static, the lead guitar rips into the foreground with savage force. Mysterious synths billow into the upper register before Rye Ann’s vocals emerge. They question the way many people drift through life while numbing their feelings and repressing their intuition. After taking a dream-pop detour on the choruses, the song swoops into a breakdown with hardcore growls. Also included is an instrumental bonus track titled “The Future is Yours.”
