Right then⦠gather round, heartbreak survivors, situationship escapees, and anyone whoās ever rolled their eyes at a Ā£12 petrol station teddy bear⦠because this oneās for YOU šš„
Bailey Spinn has just unleashed āhomicideā ā and bloody hell, it doesnāt just slap⦠it swings a chair across the room and sets it on fire afterwards š£š¤
Dropped on February 13th (the ultimate anti-Valentineās mic drop, fair play š), this track is a full-throttle emotional detonation wrapped in distortion, attitude, and zero apologies.
š£ LOVE SONGS ARE DEAD ā LONG LIVE THE CHAOS
Forget roses. Forget romance. Forget that awkward card aisle in Tesco.
āhomicideā kicks the door down and replaces all that mush with:
- šø Riffs that snarl like theyāve had enough of your nonsense
- ā” Hooks sharper than a drunk text at 2:47am
- š„ Vocals that sound like theyāve just burned a diary and donāt regret a thing
Produced by Matt Squire (the mastermind behind chaos merchants like Panic! At The Disco and Sum 41), the track hits that perfect sweet spot between polished and absolutely unhinged.
Itās loud. Itās raw. Itās got teeth.
And honestly? Itās exactly what the rock scene needs right now š„
š¤ FROM HEARTBREAK TO āNAH, IāM GOOD ACTUALLYā
This aināt your typical sob-in-the-corner breakup tune, mun.
Nah ā this is the soundtrack to:
š Deleting their number
š Blocking them everywhere
š Realising you were WAY too good for that mess anyway
āhomicideā turns emotional burnout into a proper power move ā a middle finger wrapped in distortion and self-respect šŖš„
Itās catharsis you can scream along to⦠preferably in the car, windows down, terrifying pedestrians ššØ
š BAILEY SPINN ISNāT MESSING ABOUT
If youāre only just clocking onto Bailey Spinn now ā welcome to the party, butt š
Sheās been building serious momentum with previous bangers like:
- ācriticalā
- āfear of going outā
And her debut album loser (2025)? Absolute stormer.
Especially the fan-favourite happy ending, which smashed past 10 million streams like it was nothing š„
Her whole vibe is this glorious mix of:
šø Y2K alt-rock nostalgia
š Brutally honest storytelling
š„ Modern, donāt-take-any-crap energy
Sheās not just riding the wave ā sheās making the bloody thing š
š TOUR INCOMING ā AND ITāS GONNA BE MAYHEM
As if dropping this weapon of a track wasnāt enough, Baileyās heading out on tour with Dark Divine this spring across North America š¤
Kicking off March 4 at The Palladium in Worcester, this runās shaping up to be:
- š„ Loud
- š¤ Sweaty
- š Slightly unhinged (the best kind)
If her live shows match the energy of āhomicideā⦠expect chaos, crowd screams, and at least one person losing their voice entirely.
š„ RIFF REPORT VERDICT
āhomicideā isnāt just a song ā itās a statement.
Itās what happens when heartbreak stops being sad and starts getting loud.
And honestly? Weāre backing it all the way.
Because sometimesā¦
You donāt need closure.
You just need a massive riff, a bit of attitudeā¦
and a track that absolutely goes for the throat šš„š¤
š Stick this on full blast, annoy your neighbours, and raise a pint to being gloriously over it š»
