MANA’s latest single, “Nauseating Me” kicks off with strong guitar riffs that immediately grab your attention and set up the track’s intense energy. As the vocals come in, they add an electrifying layer, carried by captivating melodies and great lyrics. The production is polished, highlighting each part of the instrumentation perfectly, from the gritty guitar work to the punchy drums and the smooth bassline that keeps the whole track grounded.
The song, with its fusion of indie rock and post-punk influences, feels both nostalgic and fresh. The guitar style is amazing and gives the track a distinctive 80s vibe mixed with a modern edge. It’s easy to hear that every instrument here is well thought out and purposeful, creating a dreamy yet edgy atmosphere that’s uniquely MANA.
The song brings depth, touching on the frustrations of our modern world, from fake news to everyday stress.
