Whew boy. Kinda needed a breather after listening to “Because I Let You” by Infected Rain and after watching the video, kinda needed a box of tissues and a good ugly cry.
In its heaviness and brutalness, there’s a magnificent vulnerability to “Because I Let You”. The moments of heartbreaking delicateness can be heard the strongest in vocalist Lena Scissorhands. Lena has one of the best vocals in music. Her ability to dance between harsh and clean is exceptional.
On the song, the band says,
“In ‘Because I Let You’, we delve into the paradox of love’s pain, exploring how our deepest affections can lead to our greatest wounds. It’s a raw reflection on the vulnerability we expose in love, and how sometimes those we trust most can wield our secrets and fears against us. This song isn’t just about the struggles in relationships; it’s a mirror to the courage it takes to acknowledge and voice this complex reality.”
