River Rojas’ Debut Single Them Eater is the Anthem You Will Have on Repeat
A fresh new debut release Them Eater from emerging artist River Rojas hits streaming platforms today.
And believe me, this is a song you will have on repeat all Autumn long!
This track is impressive, innovative and unique and will be a great addition to your playlist.
Rojas is a queer Mexican-English artist based in London who takes inspiration from bands such as The Yeah Yeah Yeah’s, No Doubt and The Runaways.
This debut single celebrates love in all the forms it can take irrespective of gender or sexuality.
Rojas says of their new track: “My debut single, Them Eater celebrates the freedom to love anyone regardless of their sexual or gender identity. It’s a queer song that captures the sexual tension experienced on a night out.”
Interestingly, the title of the song reflects on Nelly Furtado’s 2006 hit ‘Maneater’ who is one of Rojas’ influences and this is clear when you hear their sound.
The track is a modern dance hit that uses 80s-style synths, raspy vocals, and drum beats, which urge your body to move the second you hear it.
Them Eater is perfect for any club DJ set on the London music scene.
“Cus she’s a girl, Into girls into boys, Into them, Girls into femmes, Boys into bears, Them into her, Him into them, But fuck me am I right, Cus nobody cares”.
This clever chorus seamlessly builds into an irresistibly dance-worthy bass drop, capturing the energy of a night out where each moment flows effortlessly into the next. The lyrics blend just as smoothly, creating a catchy and memorable vocal that sticks with you.
With this release, Rojas proves they’re an artist to watch. If they keep delivering music this impressive, there’s no doubt big things are on the horizon for them.
Them Eater is out now.
River Rojas – Them Eater Lyrics
Low key into this
You’re hard to get
Until you’re pressed up
On my lips
Walks in a room
Like a moth to flame
Bends with a snap
To get you into bed
You’re driving me insane
You’re on fleek with your leather
and your chains
Tell you friends
To walk away
I’m about to
Cut this tension
With a knife
Un, deux, trois
Cus she’s a girl
Into girls into boys
Into them
Girls into femmes
Boys into bears
Them into her
Him into them
But fuck me am I right
Cus nobody cares
I get so hard
by my thoughts for you
Oh I’m so unprepared
See you walking
Straight up to me
Never ever
Have I been so scared
Heart Beat
In my throat
It’s your lips
Upon my neck
My kryptonite
Didn’t think it
Hit so hard
Midnight magic
Break my heart
Uno, dos, tres
Cus she’s a girl
into girls
into boys
Into them
Girls into femmes
Boys into bears
Them into her
Him into them
But fuck me am I right
Cus nobody cares
