Australia's Windwaker - vocalist Liam Guinane, guitarist Jesse Crofts, bassist Indey Salvestro, drummer Chris Lalic, and synths/samples specialist Connor Robins - have returned with a brand new banger for your listening pleasure. "Fractured State of Mind" is a refreshing blend of EDM elements infused with true post-hardcore stylistic approaches from the instrumentals to the vocals. Listen to the brand new track below and let us know your thoughts beneath the article!
"Fractured State of Mind" is aptly named. It's a glorious transforming sonic journey that will make both your head and body tingle with its ferocity. The band cross-pollinates '90s-inspired electronic flourishes, synths, blood-chilling screams, gnarly riffs, and breakdowns with soaring choruses, clean vocals, and a heap of hooks. The song quietly fades out but sticks in the mind, leaving a memorable mark on the industry. It's a perfect execution of brutal and beautiful, transcending and boisterous.
"'Fractured State of Mind' showcases a darker, heavier take on our sound without sacrificing the melodies and experimental sound design Windwaker is known for," the band offers. "It's an anthem of frustration, born from battling the forces that try to dictate how we think and live. It's a wild ride that dives deep into the chaos of a messed-up world, yet still hooks you with a chorus that's as catchy as it is rebellious."
"Fractured State of Mind" is the first new music from the band since they dropped the video for the brand new single "SIRENS" in 2023. Windwaker is kicking off 2024 with a track that will definitely put them on the map in the industry, this is one you'll be blasting for the rest of the year. Stay tuned for more from the band... because it's coming!
