"Bad Habits," a gripping alt-pop-rock album by Sabina Beyli, is both a confession and a release. The song was made by Mike Midura (Ok Goodnight, Rilena) and co-written with longtime collaborator Kate J. Brink (Charlie Weld, Bella Demita). It began as a restless, moody instrumental that perfectly matched the emotional turmoil Sabina was ready to release. The result is a song that doesn't just tell a story; it bleeds one.
"Bad Habits" creates a sound world right away, with rough guitar textures and wide-open, soaring hooks. The music is heavy and moody like Evanescence, honest like Maggie Lindemann, and atmospheric like Deftones. But the magic lies in how all these influences come together to create Sabina's voice. She says each line with a mix of sharp-edged intensity and vulnerable restraint, which shows the push-and-pull of someone trying to break free from their own cycles.
At its heart, "Bad Habits" is about the messy truth of falling back into habits you thought you'd outgrown. Sabina doesn't try to hide the relapse into old habits or the quiet pain of perfectionism. Instead, she leans into them. The lyrics sound like they came from a late-night journal entry: honest, unfiltered, and painfully familiar. Listeners enter the voids that follow major errors, but they are also invited into moments of clarity where being aware of oneself is a form of release.
The emotional duality of "Bad Habits" is what makes it stand out. The song sounds very strong, but it also has a weak core. It feels like Sabina's delivery is gripping and letting go of something. That tension makes the listening experience not only interesting but also very human.
"Bad Habits" is a must-listen for fans of alternative pop, modern rock, and emotionally honest storytelling. It's a big step forward in Sabina Beyli's artistic growth. This song will stick with you long after the last note fades away because it speaks to a part of us that we've all met before.
