In March, with the release of Modern Life, The New Division reflected on isolation and finding escape through music during the pandemic. The album held beats that pulsated with darkness and controlled chaos and allowed listeners to escape the modern world through synth pop at its finest.
The New Division continues his infectious synth journey with his latest single, “One Day”.
“One Day” carefully combines dance floor rhythms with a thunderous bass beat that will send bodies moving, and while the song is an infectious dance track, for this writer, the lyrics are what connects with me the most.
The lyrics of “One Day” explore addiction, love, and loss. Having nearly lost someone dear to addiction, the lyrics resonate with raw emotion. The New Division forces one to examine unhealed emotions and trauma with a sense of hope and perhaps closure.
With the combination of honest and heartfelt lyrics and flawless beats, “One Day” is a captivating and a visceral experience.
The New Division has not only meticulously crafted a song that is a spiritual journey but a song that will leave a breathless body on a dancefloor.
