Straw's new song 'Apartment 3513' is like a raw, real peek into his struggles with anger, depression, and addiction. He lays it all out there with brutally honest lyrics over this intense blues-rock soundscape that immerses you in his troubled headspace.
The guitar work is nasty – each note drips with exhaustion from all this time he's spent soul-searching and trying to figure himself out. The song's got this dark, gritty vibe as he provocatively questions himself and the listener about why hes so pissed off at the world. Definitely leaves you thinking about your own issues and his vocals are just frustration personified. The guitars snarl with this mix of danger and temptation like he's unloading all his demons into his music 'cause it's the only thing that gets him. This song just feels so darn personal and almost uncomfortably blunt.
For fans of hardcore, no-holds-barred rock, Apartment 3513 is Straws raw cry against the crap life throws our way. Cathartic stuff packaged in this gritty, bluesy sound that you can't turn away from even if you want to.
