CARRØ. m flips the script with her new single, “The monsters are my friends,” a powerful and refined dance-pop song that transforms internal conflict into celebration. Fronted by a woman and groove-oriented, the song is confident yet remains grounded on the dance floor.
From the get-go, there’s motion, purposeful, chic, irresistible. It’s the type of song that slides effortlessly into a bouncy pop playlist, propels you through your gym workout, or turns late-night driving sessions into something cinematic. There’s an uplifting undercurrent running beneath its shiny production, which lends the track both emotional elevation and a physical push.
This track stands out for its balance. It is polished yet inciting, silken, and boon. The track is deep, anchoring the song all the way to heft, while above it, the vocals soar in slick abandon, together, it feels equal parts authoritative and freeing.
“The monsters are my friends” seems like an anthem of self-acceptance, an invitation to come out of the shadows and love the parts of yourself you’ve tried to bury. Instead of running from the shadows as CARRØ. m dances with them. And in the process, she crafts a track that sounds fearless and liberating. This is dance-pop with personality. Fashionable enough for a night out, strong enough for an internal shift.
