Sydney singer-songwriter RAGEFLOWER is making a splash with her debut single “Still Calling.” RAGEFLOWER’s moniker is so appropriate because this track has just the right combination of aggression and beauty.
“Essentially, ‘Still Calling’ is about the journey back to self and healing the inner child. It’s also about the consequences of suppressing trauma with destructive coping mechanisms,” RAGEFLOWER explained. “When I wrote the song I was in a dark place, I really felt that I had let myself down and that I had wasted my potential on temporary highs. At the time I was listening to a lot of music from my emo high school years (Bright Eyes, Tonight Alive, Sum 41) and connecting with the person I used to be, which really inspired the sound. I wanted to write a hyper dualistic song with verses that felt confessional and vulnerable but choruses that felt destructive and nihilistic.”
“Still Calling” sets the bar so high, so I can’t wait to hear what comes next for RAGEFLOWER. She’s definitely someone to watch.
