“EMPTY HOME” by Crux

Writer's picture: GarciaGarcia

Crux, a four-member band hailing from the UK, possesses the remarkable ability to captivate listeners. Despite their limited presence on the airwaves and in the media spotlight, once you add their tracks to your playlist, you'll find yourself immersed in their music endlessly. Particularly, I found "Empty Home" to be an exceptional piece. I urge you to give it a listen. Their latest release, featured on their profile, graced the shelves on August 17, 2023.


In a spine-tingling crescendo, Crux conveys themes of solitude and transcendence through enchanting vocals. Their unique fusion of prog-rock and grunge keeps the audience engaged and guessing. "Empty Home," a poignant composition, was born during the lockdown, delving into the emotions of isolation and longing for human connection that many have endured while confined to their homes.




While the entire track is saturated with rich instrumentation, it showcases a dynamic interplay of compositional elements, infusing each line with its distinct character. Crux’s musical prowess shines through, featuring exceptional instrumentals that accentuate the band’s strengths, creating an eerie yet captivating flow.


Furthermore, it’s punctuated by rhythmic, thought-provoking lyrics, soaring vocals, and melodic keys. The song’s lyrical and instrumental elements beautifully capture the feelings of emptiness and solitude experienced in a familiar setting. They vividly portray an abandoned home, emphasizing the absence of laughter, warmth, and companionship. These words stir up a profound sense of longing and a yearning for human connection, a sentiment many can relate to in these challenging times.


In “Empty Home,” Crux pushes the boundaries of their sound, all while staying true to their creative path. In essence, “Empty Home” showcases Crux doing what they excel at - crafting vibrant music that remains perpetually fresh. It offers an enticing glimpse into what the band has in store for the near future. “Empty Home” is now available for streaming everywhere, and I encourage you to give it a listen!
