HOAX Reels The Listener Into New Single Western Medicine

HOAX reels the listener into new single Western Medicine with a stunning strings-driven intro. The melodic hook draws you in further and the chorus swells with luxurious instrumentals and impenetrable lyrics. 

No idea what’s going on
Beyond the curtains drawn
No one truly knows the pain you keep
But still beneath the bittersweet
I need it endlessly

Western Medicine is an intriguing song from the indie pop-rock band from New York that questions the way humans choose to exist.

I think humans kind of live through this notion that ‘as long as there is breath, there is hope’. We fixate on this, and spend so much time pondering on the meaning of our meandering existence, only to resort to these proclaimed ‘Western Medicine’ ​that allow our self-formulated expectations to control us and guide our decisions when really, they are just “miracle snake oils” than healthy lifestyles. But I do understand why, I think. Existence is painful, and numbing seems necessary.​” – HOAX

HOAX’s new single is a complex piece with many layers and conjures a warm feeling of nostalgia and elation.
