OpCritical - Not Alone

OpCritical doesn’t just make songs; they bring to the surface thoughts and ideologies that will haunt you, especially in their latest release, Not Alone. He wants you to raise your fists and demand that you listen to him, not just musically but ideologically. This new song, however, it is something; it is an anthem to dust one's spine off the shelf and act with a sense of righteousness. It is clear that this number is not for the algorithm; it is a pure expression of their unfiltered thoughts. Well, it is filtered enough to be poetry. Of course, the track has its own language sonically and is crafted to perfection, but it isn’t all this that makes the song different. It reminds you about the purpose of art. One can say that art’s purpose is to drown out the noise and create a safe space that you can’t find it physically. OpCritical says screw that: "They hold a mirror to society and ask a very important question—how much depravity are you going to tolerate and allow in this world? If anyone has watched The Trial Of Chicago 7, you will know how powerful and moving the film is; Not Alone elicits a similar reaction when you hear it. The track isn’t just filled with drama within it; it is acutely aware of its role in the political theater we have going on in the world currently. The track is gritty and raw, and while it is all that, it is also hopeful. You can listen to OpCritical by clicking on any of the links attached.
