Leading the charge into the future of music-making, CallmeNowoN delivers a scorched-earth rock anthem with "Circle Of Hatred," a hard-hitting standout from their genre-bending project, "Sorry I Couldn't Afford Studio Time." He powers through with AI production and creation with Suno, but he wrote the entire masterpiece alone. As a statement piece, it's a power surge locked inside a hot, angry tornado of distortion and truth.
"Circle Of Hatred" is a song's hard-rocking, alternative-metal, and alt-rock collision point. It oozes with the sort of angst that is, at once, totally personal and damn near cinematic. That would be fitting, considering it traces its roots back to Naruto, the anime juggernaut focused on inner struggles, revenge, and finding redemption. That influence pulses throughout the track, not only in spirit but in structure, reflecting the type of emotional crescendo one might anticipate before a battle scene. CallmeNowoN makes sure every line crackles with the rawness of someone who's been pushed to the brink and is now staring into the abyss not in fear but in defiance. It's an emotional, psychological, and societal circle, and the artist appears determined to break it, one scream at a time.
CallmeNowoN isn't hiding its usage of AI but instead embraces it. This is a quest to prove that even with unconventional tools, lyricism is still king. That's what lifts "Circle Of Hatred" above the soul in the lyrics, which is not synthetic, even if the soundscape was spawned from a machine. With "Sorry I Couldn't Afford Studio Time," CallmeNowoN is changing the definition of independent artist in 2025. And with "Circle Of Hatred," he has done that to the business, the hype, and maybe to themselves. It's not just a song. It's a war cry from tomorrow.
