"Siren Of Damage" – When pain becomes melody
With "Siren Of Damage", RubyCult deliver a song that is instantly catchy while maintaining a deep, dark atmosphere. The track starts out surprisingly light, almost poppy, before developing into a powerful mix of synth pop and dark wave. You can feel the rhythm getting under your skin while the subtle guitars give the piece a dark touch.
The vocals are rough, almost a little raw, which perfectly matches the lyrical heaviness of the song. Lines like "You're the Siren of Damage" or "The hurt is a drug you can't withdraw" give the track a bittersweet intensity. The thematic depth is enhanced by the melancholy lyrics about deception, pain and broken hopes, which further increase the emotional weight of the song. The listener is drawn into a dark world in which vulnerability and destruction interweave.
What makes Siren Of Damage so special is the constantly changing sound structure. Just when you think you have the structure of the song figured out, RubyCult surprises you with new variations, keeping the sound fresh. This dynamic prevents the song from appearing monotonous. The balance between catchy melodies and the dark wave aesthetic is impressively successful here.
Only the vocals might seem a bit too rough for some listeners, but it is precisely this imperfection that gives the track its authenticity.

Lyrics of "RubyCult – Siren Of Damage"
So now the truth unfolds why you ran away
The secrets you've kept hidden are in full display
There's nowhere left to hide when you've blamed everyone here
Only yourself and what's left of your conscience bare
And to think I still had hope
For a fair reprise
They were all lies
And to think I still had hope…
You're the Siren of Damage
We come to aid at your call
The souls that you ravage
Carry your love as a scar
The tears that constantly flow down your cheek
Are just a ploy to hold those under your keep
Do you even know you're hurt or even care?
Twisting the truth to keep your image clear
And to think I still had hope…
You're the Siren of Damage
We're at your beck and your call
But you'll never be salvaged
The hurt is a drug you can't withdraw
You’re just a Siren
And to think I still had hope…
You're just a Siren of Damage
Who'll never break from the fall
The unknown depths of your sadness
Is bait for the lonely hearts you trawl
You're just a Siren of Damage
You’re just a Siren…
You're just a Siren of Damage
We're at your beck and your call
But you'll never be salvaged
The hurt is a drug you can't withdraw
You're just a Siren of Damage
To think I still had hope
You’re just a Siren…
And to think I still had hope…
