valley, “nevermind”

Are you looking for new music that isn’t all about relationships or heartbreak? Look no further with VALLEY, who tend to make music about positive life developments and working through mental health issues. Their latest single, “nevermind”, focuses on perfectionism and how it can turn into negativity or depression. The band released the lyrics to the track prior to the release, teasing eager fans. But, the wait is over and it definitely was worth it. Like many of their songs, it is upbeat and catchy while dealing with these important topics. Their sound is refreshing and fun but almost gives off a nostalgic vibe.

An echoed introduction catches your attention immediately with singer Rob Laska’s light vocals. It is easy to get lost in the beat of the song, but when you catch yourself thinking about the lyrics you can relate to their message of the pressures we face daily. The hook, “I want something that I’ll ne-ver find / but I just keep on saying ne-ver mind,” definitely will be stuck in your head all day or you’ll find yourself singing it in the shower. It’s a song you can picture hearing when you turn on the radio in the car and immediately turning the volume up. With millions of streams and continuing to put out honest songs, VALLEY is destined for a huge breakthrough.
