On "TALKBOY," h3nce moves comfortably into the alt-pop spotlight, making a sound that is both chaotic and deeply real. The song sounds like an emotional broadcast from a restless attic, where h3nce writes, records, and experiments with his best friend at his side. It is a raw snapshot of the artist's creative ecosystem, one that embraces imperfection, emotion, and connection.
Seated at the crossroads of indie-rock, post-punk, shoegaze, and grunge, "TALKBOY" teeters in genre with unrepentant nonchalance. There's an undertow of grit in the guitars, a creeping unease of atmosphere in the electronic textures, and an eerie melodic pulse that keeps it all grounded. It feels thoughtful and new, like a transmission from the past reinterpreted for today's digital underground.
h3nce's voice has a rare mixture of fragility and bravado, flitting between quiet confessionals and the kind of snarling rage that reflects the emotional contrasts in his lyrics. "TALKBOY" is also an introduction to what's coming from h3nce, his debut EP "WRITE IT ON YOUR FLAGS," a six-track project produced by Leon Laguna (EASY EASY, Jewls). "TALKBOY" is a mood of contemporary revolution wrapped in memories, hurt, and longing. With this release, h3nce demonstrates that even from a cramped attic, music can scorch through the underground as intimate, imperfect, and simply unshakeable.
