Straight Razor – The Curse

Merciless basslines and dark synths: Straight Razor's "The Curse" unfolds its curse

Straight Razor - The CurseOfficial music video "The Curse" per­formed by "Straight Razor". Directed by Joe Cardamone. The black and white music video for ‘The Curse’ per­fectly enhances the dark atmo­sphere of the song with its high con­trast and excit­ing imagery.

With "The Curse", Straight Razor has cre­ated a dark, dark wave track that delves deep into the abysses of the human mind, both music­ally and atmo­spher­ic­ally. The song opens with a mer­ci­lessly bru­tal bass­line that imme­di­ately draws the listen­er into a threat­en­ing sound­scape. This bass­line is strongly remin­is­cent of cur­rent dark synth pro­jects and sets the mood for the rest of the track.

Straight Razor's vocals fit per­fectly into this dark atmo­sphere. With his deep, almost sooth­ing voice, the sing­er con­veys the oppress­ive mes­sage of the lyr­ics: "There's no mercy for any­one". This lyr­ic­al state­ment reflects the dark, mas­ochist­ic tend­en­cies that we often dis­play in our pur­suit of happiness.

The peck­ing synths that kick in at 01:07 are par­tic­u­larly note­worthy, giv­ing the song an unmis­tak­able hor­ror film flair. These ele­ments make "The Curse" an abso­lute high­light for fans of the goth­ic scene and give hope for a great album. If Straight Razor can main­tain this high stand­ard, the black scene has some­thing big to look for­ward to. This song is part of our Spotify playl­ist ‘New Synth Pop Songs 2024‘.

Lyrics of "Straight Razor – The Curse"

There’s no mercy for anyone
Welcome to oblivion
I look away but I can’t let go
If I give in, I turn to stone

Out of the ash I rise again
A vice of knives, my only friend
A little slice of death today
The cursed lov­ers are here to stay

I look away, I can’t let go
If I give in, I turn to stone
