Need a new breakup anthem? POLLY’s newest single, “B.I.T.E Me” can easily be added to that playlist! POLLY pours her heart on this single, spilling the details about her ex who wasn’t really locked in. There is a deep conversation taking place with listeners, accompanied by a great instrumental. While being so tapped into the emotional side, she makes this a fun, bop out breakup song. The beat, the drops, and the vocals will have you turning up in your bedroom. If you need a healthy breakup song to get those angry feelings out, this is the one for you!
What is amazing about this song is how all of the layers perfectly mix together. The song opens up by having the drums expand, allowing more space to grow during the first verse until the bridge hits. The crash allows buildup for the drop before the chorus, which leads to a wobbly bass complimenting the diction within the vocals. Analog synth bells are sprinkled throughout, creating an effect that reminds me of looking at a comet shower. Her vocals throughout are phenomenal, with the phone filter notch EQ effect and harmonies being used throughout to push the emotional side. The call backs and even the spelling of bite creates a playful and fun aspect of the song. In the final repeating lines of the outro, there is a fast split-up arpeggiation for a closing suspense.
POLLY is a pop artist based out of Melbourne, Australia. She is a fast-growing artist, with listeners in over 116 countries worldwide. With only three releases, her sound is captivating audiences by her musical prowess. With skills like piano, guitar, and dreamy vocals, her music is emotional and euphoric. She is unstoppable with her world-class team, including producer Liam Quinn (Ruel, Peach PRC), 19 Grammy award winner Brent Kolatalo, and mastering engineer Chris Gehringer (Dua Lipa, Selena Gomez, Tove Lo, Tones and I). Her sound is a combination of dreamy vocals, raw lyrics, and 80’s synths. If you liked “B.I.T.E Me”, be sure to follow down below with updates on the upcoming EP Daddy Issues!
