⭐️ PREMIERE ⭐️ | ELZ AND THE CULT | “Monochrome”
Just like the name of the song suggests, this black and white beaut of a video plays just like a dream. It comes from a passionate trio from Istanbul. Read below for thoughts on the track:
‘Monochrome is about being in the grey area and not wanting to get out from there. I have always had this terrifying stage fright and anxiety and before i released the album, i was in this area of not knowing what’s gonna happen next and i wanted to stay in that state-of-mind. The song is all about that so we released it as the final single off our debut album and it will also make a great bridge to what’s coming next for our band.’

An album that is full of life and various styles, it is a lovely return from the band. The Chicago band’s heavy pop/rock vibe bleeds through on every track while still giving listeners something unexpected. Just as the musicians are unapologetic for their earnest sound, we are unrelenting in our obsession of it!
