Muse Chronicle

[SAMPLE_TEXT] have always been the kind of band that makes you slightly uncomfortable at parties. They’ve been kicking around the garage rock and punk scene for a while now, building a following among people who are tired of bands that try too hard to be liked. If you’re looking for music to play in the background while you scroll through your phone, this isn’t it. This is music that demands your attention, even if what it has to say makes you squirm.

“The kind of album that burns the bridge while you’re still standing on it.”

“Viewing Room” comes at you with fourteen tracks of pure frustration. Right from the jump, you can tell this isn’t going to be a pleasant listen in the traditional sense. The guitars are dirty and the drums hit hard. The album’s entire premise is that we’re living in a cultural wasteland, surrounded by fake people promoting fake lives, and the band isn’t about to deliver that message with a clean, radio-friendly sound.

They’re talking about the way everything feels performative now, how everyone’s a brand, how genuine connection has been replaced by likes and shares and carefully curated images. The songs themselves don’t follow typical verse-chorus-verse structures. Lyrically, don’t expect detailed storytelling. The band is more interested in capturing a feeling than telling you a story. That feeling is suffocation.

[SAMPLE_TEXT] is holding up a mirror to the emptiness of modern culture and making sure you can’t look away. For anyone tired of bands that sound like they were designed by algorithm, or music that’s more concerned with streaming numbers than saying something real, “Viewing Room” is worth your time. It’s abrasive and challenging and won’t be for everyone. They’re just confirming what you already suspected: yeah, we’re living in hell. At least someone’s willing to say it out loud.
