Featured Tune: "This Is Over" from Naomi Neva
reviews
When Letting Go Hits Loud
Naomi Neva doesn’t ease into This Is Over—she walks straight into the emotional wreckage and lets the noise do the talking. The track feels like a clenched jaw finally relaxing, that moment when denial drops, and honesty rushes in, messy and unavoidable. There’s grit here, but it’s purposeful grit, shaped into something sharp and strangely liberating.
The production leans into distortion and raw edges, allowing the song to breathe in all its frustration and resolve. Guitars grind rather than shimmer, pushing the track forward with a restless energy that mirrors the emotional tug-of-war at its core. Neva’s vocals cut through with conviction, carrying both exhaustion and strength, never trying to soften the blow. It’s not just about heartbreak—it’s about clarity arriving when you least want it, and the power that comes with naming the truth.
What stands out most is how unpolished the song feels in the best way. There’s no attempt to tidy up the emotions or wrap them in pretty metaphors. Instead, This Is Over thrives on its honesty, channeling anger, nostalgia, and self-awareness into a chorus that feels like a release valve. It’s the sound of someone choosing themselves, even while knowing it still hurts.
By the time the track fades, it leaves a lingering aftertaste—part relief, part ache. This Is Over proves that Naomi Neva knows how to turn emotional chaos into something bold, resonant, and deeply human.
