Future

Eliza Shaddad

Released

2018

Inspired by the unapologetically fierce sound of iconic 1990s grunge artists like Courtney Love and Skunk Anansie, Scottish singer-songwriter Eliza Shaddad set out to create music that evoked the crunchy riffs of grunge mixed with the elation of indie pop rock. The result is her debut album, Future; a record full of deceptively sweet melodies and soul-baring lyrics that recount the dissolution of a relationship seen through a slightly nihilistic philosophical lens. Throughout the record, Shaddad creates vivid images of heartbreak, longing, and triumph. Future is a triumphant debut full of nostalgia for a bygone musical era and yearning for a brighter future.
