Cuffed – Imposter

A dark monologue in search of self-worth

If you feel at home in the dark world of dark wave, "Imposter" by Cuffed will captivate you immediately. The track is in the same vein as bands like "The Sisters Of Mercy" and "Clan Of Xymox", but the collaboration with "NOANGELSS" adds a depth that is particularly noticeable in the ethereal female vocals. This combination of dark sound and fragile voice gives ‘Imposter’ a fascinating complexity that inevitably draws the listener into the melancholy mood of the song.

The bridge is one of the strongest moments of the track. It pulses in the background, subdued yet driving, creating a subliminal tension that carries the song. The contrast between the echoing, urgent melody and the emotional lyrics works brilliantly and stays with you.

Lyrically, "Imposter" is about the deep, inner struggles with self-doubt and isolation. Lines like "I'm not worthy of love" or "I can't stop, I'm not enough" are relentlessly honest and reflect the feeling of not being enough. This openness, in combination with the dark, driving music, has an almost cathartic effect and invites the listener to lose themselves in their own emotions.
