Love Ghost offers an edgy new track in “Worth It”, reflects the vulnerability of looking at yourself in the mirror and fighting self-doubt. The vocals bleed with a sense of urgency that draws listeners to the center of the fight. By the time of that chorus, less a sing-along, really, than an exhale, it’s just a reminder of how much weight music can bear and how heavy some feelings are to lift into speech.
What distinguishes “Worth It” is its unapologetic candor. The lyrics are razor sharp, not bothering to sugar coat the awkwardness of soul-searching ones’ value. It’s a rawness that is echoed by The Skinner Brothers’ influence, and when paired with the tingling sensation of Taras connection makes this track bleed into a place where alternative rock can sound as harsh as it does tuneful. Anointed by a miraculous guitar solo, the sinister tension reaches its crescendo here, it’s as if you’ve broken free of chains, as you exhale after holding your breath for too long.
For anyone who has struggled with internal doubts, “Worth It” provides catharsis. It’s not a slick anthem of triumph, but rather an honest assessment of the struggle itself. And sometimes that’s what makes the struggle bearable, knowing someone else has lived it, screamed it, and turned it into something beautiful.
With their raw energy and unapologetic emotional depth, “Worth It” solidified Love Ghost’s reputation for writing songs that resonate with spirit. It’s a song that should speak not only to alternative rock fans, but to anyone who has ever asked themselves whether the battle was indeed worth it.
