So many amazing singles came out today and one of them is Jake Knox’s “Jake is Dead (Head Underwater)”. Although the song kicks off with a super calm and soothing guitar line, it’s not long before a full band kicks in and takes this song into the pop-punk world but with a twist. The vocals in this track have an almost reggae vibe to them but this song is far from a reggae anthem. There’s no shortage of rock n’ roll energy throughout the song creating a super unique sound.
In the description of this track, Jake Knox explains that this song was written at one of the lowest parts of his life but that’s not at all the feeling I get when listening to this song. Although lyrically there’s something fairly dark in this track, there’s also something hopefully triumphant throughout. Jake goes on to claim that this is one of the most personal songs he has ever written and you can absolutely feel that weight with every word. All in all, this song is powerful in more ways than one and it has me super excited to check out more music from his upcoming album!
