Canberra’s standout metalcore-rock group, St.Sinner, is making a welcomed return on December 8th, teaming up with David De La Hoz of Belle Haven. The latest track “Dysphoria” is a testament to the band’s versatile sound palette, assuring to resonate with a wide spectrum of heavy music enthusiasts.
Dysphoria strikes listeners with an emotionally charged blend of emo and metalcore, akin to Bad Omens and Holding Absence, delving into the complex theme of being caught between emotions and grappling with dissatisfaction within oneself. Dysphoria is the second single in the “identity crisis” cycle, a series of music that focuses on breaking a depressive downward spiral. A lyrical journey unfolds throughout the piece, utilising the voices of both the band’s singer Rory and David’s wonderfully executed feature on the track. The song endeavours to paint a raw, vivid picture of internal turmoil, perfectly matched by the powerful instrumental of the track. Lines such as “Everybody’s fine till they can feel the steel touch” evoke a sense of vulnerability and raw emotion, inviting listeners into the heart of the struggle.
Based in Canberra, Australia, St. Sinner are an emo/metalcore band with a sound that’s hard to pip down. The three piece formed in 2020 and take inspiration from acts like Bring Me The Horizon, Void of Vision and Grandson. With a sound that is ever evolving, their unique brand fuses heavy riffs and poignant lyrics with a high energy and charismatic live show that will make you want to bang your head. St.Sinner have already supported the likes of Hands like Houses, Inertia, Banks Arcade and Ocean Sleeper. As well as being a part of the Emo Never Sleeps (MLB) and AM//PM family (SYD) playing shows across the east coast.
