LISTEN: “Lies” by Space of Variations

Space of Variations’ latest single, “Lies,” is an emotional rollercoaster that showcases the band’s ability to balance raw intensity with meticulous composition. Opening with a delicately arranged verse, the track builds seamlessly into a melancholic chorus that layers clean vocals with atmospheric instrumentation. The shift from vulnerability to aggression is a highlight, as vocalist Dmytro Kozhukhar transitions from soothing tones to fiery shouts, propelling the song to a gripping climax.  

On the song, the band says,

“We don’t usually dive into love songs in our band, but this one’s different. We decided to speak these feelings out loud. It’s about intense emotions on the edge of addiction. We’ve all known this feeling, one way or another. Our hearts have been broken countless times, but it’s still better than feeling nothing at all, lying in the grave. So enjoy. Everything shall pass away.”

As a rare venture into love-inspired themes, the raw sincerity of this approach, combined with the track’s dynamic structure, makes it a standout.
