Thunderously announcing her return to the spirit of the 2010s pop-punk wave, LoveRoxx featuring Solaria breaks your heart and heals it in the same damn breath with her latest spotlight track, "Where We Disappear." As a standout track from the album "Drowned," it now gets the cinematic treatment that fans have forever dreamed of with its long-awaited music video. This release is a full-circle moment for those familiar with LoveRoxx, or "Roxx," as she is known by her loyal audience.
This is a love letter to the genre that gave form to her adolescence of emo pop-punk but with her rough-and-tumble spin. From the opening guitar riffs to the howling hook begging to be screamed from the rooftops, "Where We Disappear" retraces the past and is deeply personal. Made with the precision of a connoisseur of emotional disarray and lucidity, LoveRoxx constructs an enveloping soundscape like a deeper dive into an old diary you didn't realize you had missed. But unlike the readily classifiable rings of nostalgia populating playlists recently, she channels the past with intent. This track mediates emotional isolation, silent despair at being deeply misunderstood, and the yearning to be noticed.
The video-only version further bolsters the story with visual content that blends stark emo-anime aesthetics with raw cinematic imagery. This is unsurprising, as Roxx is deeply rooted in Japanese animation and Western alt aesthetics. Brought up across continents and fluent in English, Japanese, and Spanish, LoveRoxx has always been one to straddle worlds, and her art speaks in that layered, in-between space. In "Where We Disappear," she lets us in bruised, nostalgic, and painfully candid. It's a feeling many thought they had left behind in high school lockers or scribbled in the margins of old notebooks. Roxx not only recalled pop-punk back but made it count again. LoveRoxx didn't go through all that trouble just to revisit the emo era. She's rewriting it, and she's doing it her way.
