Rising alternative rock artist Thurtythree delves into the chaos of loss and the desperate pursuit of stability in their powerful new single, Control. Known for blending haunting melodies with raw, evocative lyrics, Thurtythree crafts a deeply emotional track that explores the fragility of familiarity and the struggle to hold on when life spirals out of control.
At its heart, Control captures a universal sense of futility. Thurtythree explains: “It is the feeling of futility when the rug is pulled from under you—the moment where something you knew or felt was familiar is suddenly gone. It’s about trying to hold on to that in any way possible to avoid losing everything in that moment, while searching for something to fill the void.” This emotional weight is reflected in the track’s dynamic structure, which oscillates between brooding, introspective verses and explosive, cathartic choruses.
Musically, Control marries the nostalgic grit of ’90s alternative rock with a modern indie edge, showcasing Thurtythree’s knack for combining introspection with electrifying energy. The track’s layered instrumentation and emotional intensity make it an anthem for anyone navigating life’s unpredictable highs and lows.
Building on the success of previous hits like Dodged a Bullet, Raid, and Diseased, Control sets the stage for Thurtythree’s highly anticipated debut album, slated for release in April 2025. The single reinforces their ability to create music that is both sonically captivating and emotionally resonant, solidifying their place as a rising force in the alternative rock scene.
With Control, Thurtythree doesn’t just deliver a song—they offer a cathartic release and a reminder that the fight for stability, though messy and fraught, is undeniably human. This track is a must-listen for fans of emotionally charged alternative rock.
