It roars in with punchy drums and a guitar tone sharp enough to cut glass. Crow’s lyrics lay it bare:
“If the news is fake and fear is hate… then welcome to the new normal.”
Her voice drills into modern absurdity, spoken with a mix of alarm and defiance. It’s not just commentary—it’s scream therapy.
Final Verdict:
“The New Normal” is Crow at her fiercest—rocking her rage and rallying listeners to wake up. It’s not easy, but it’s necessary—and Crow’s voice is loud enough to make sure you hear.
