Starset release 'Dark Things'

2025-02-28 by Aeri | 14 Comments
Columbus, Ohio space rock entourage Starset have released their fifth single in preparation for an anticipated upcoming album announcement - titled 'Dark Things'.

The track differs somewhat from the heavier direction of prior singles 'Brave New World'/'Degenerate', or the anthemic chorus of 'Dystopia', instead featuring a more predominantly electronic aesthetic by comparison.

for a pop hard rock band, this band actually has been low key cooking [2].
they actually sound half-genuine on most of what they're putting out.

It is kind of boring, but at least it doesn't have any of the weird growling vocals that some of the other singles have had. I just don't think it suits Dustin's voice very well.

Yeah I'm a little surprised that this was selected to be a promo single, it's clearly a mid-album "bring the tempo down a bit" track to bridge between bigger/more heavier songs. Not exactly the most thrilling selection for a single.

Bad mixing. I feel like in places the vocals are swallowed by instrumentation.

To make things worse, I'm getting - shudder - snatches Imagine Dragons.

I don't need to listen to this to know that it's the same shit they've done since Vessels

I mean I did, and I was right.

I’d argue they’ve been displaying some growth since from Horizons-onward, but that’s still fair.

The only growth they've been displaying is their album lengths

Yeah, I’ll happily admit that their insistence on 90 second transitions between nearly every song is getting annoying now.

Not everything has to be a space opera with cyberpunk dystopia overtones.
