Witchwish the musical project of the Italian artist Stefano Tarroni just hit my radar this week with his debut single “Alice of Madness” which takes the listener on a magical journey through the realm of gothic imagery, emotional depth and the unique sound of alternative pop-rock music. Right from the start, the track captivates with its polished production and powerful energy. Based on the story of Alice in Wonderland, the song is meaningful and explores themes of self-discovery, inner conflict and the balance of dual identities.
The lyrics are powerful and well written with elements of romance and whimsical darkness with introspective storytelling. The vocals here are simply amazing, his deep voice bringing the haunting yet hopeful melodies to life. The instrumentation is energetic and dynamic with an amazing guitar solo that takes the song to another level. The music video is also a great addition to the aesthetics of the song and enhances the overall experience. The emo nostalgic literary and cinematic influences combined with Witchwish’s unique fusion make this song a great starting point.
For myself, I was drawn to the raw emotional truth in the song. The melodies are haunting and the overall sound is powerful and refreshing. He has amazing skills and his music is different and deserves more attention. I am excited to see what this artist has in store for us next, this is a talent to keep an eye on.
