Aimless, a hard rock band from Monza, Italy, released single "weirdo" today. It's their 3rd single, following their releases last year of "no roof" and "let me live." "weirdo" is a riff-heavy, hard rock song about mental illness and what it's like for one man.
This track tells the story of a man haunted by his dark, inner thoughts that are hurting him, and these thoughts lead him to run away from everyone and everything, even himself. But he's left alone at the end, and it's tragic. "weirdo" is one track about mental illness and the stigma surrounding them. It also shows us that running away instead of asking for help when you're struggling with your mental health/illness is never a good idea.
I love this track. It lets those who are struggling with their mental health know that they're not the only ones who deal with heavy thoughts - it's saying "it's okay to not be okay."
Aimless are a very promising young rock band. I've loved their previous two singles, and this one as well, in fact, I love "weirdo" the most. They've showed much growth even in the short time between their releases, and I'm so excited to hear more from them.
Aimless are a band you should keep your eye on; they're skilled and passionate about their music, and it definitely shows in "weirdo."
