Featured Tune: "Broken" from Deer Fang

reviews

Wearing the Cracks Proudly

Deer Fang’s Broken arrives with the weight of lived experience and the confidence of a band that knows exactly where it stands. Rooted in shoegaze, grunge, and alt-rock, the track feels dense yet welcoming, wrapping heavy emotion in melodies that linger long after the final note fades.

From the opening moments, Broken leans into atmosphere. Guitars swell and blur at the edges, creating a textured backdrop that feels both raw and expansive. There’s a push and pull between grit and clarity here — moments that feel bruised and vulnerable sit comfortably alongside undeniably catchy hooks. It’s the kind of song that hits hardest when you’re not actively searching for meaning, letting the sound wash over you before the message slowly sinks in.

What makes Broken especially compelling is its emotional honesty. The song doesn’t wallow or posture; instead, it reflects. There’s a quiet strength in how it acknowledges flaws without letting them define the whole story. Deer Fang channels that idea into a performance that feels unguarded, as if the song is less about confession and more about acceptance.

As a release, Broken showcases the full emotional and sonic range of Deer Fang. It’s built for repeat listens — the kind where each spin reveals a new detail tucked into the layers of sound. Whether heard through headphones late at night or blasting live in a room full of people, Broken proves that embracing imperfection can be both powerful and strangely uplifting.
