"anybody else?" Is a light, bouncy empathetic pop-punk song telling the all too familiar story of anxiety, self-doubt, and bottling up emotions that most people face. The song is filled with full-force energetic guitar riffs, vigorous euphonic vocals, and vivid jouncing drum beats combined into a scintillating pop-punk song.
The song starts off with a welcoming light-hearted strum of an acoustic guitar, thumping electronic beats, and the eventual introduction of the lavishly deep sounds of a bass joining the layers of the instrumental, which creates a whimsically playful demeanor before ejecting into the exhilarating, hard-hitting climatic chorus, which is filled with feverishly vivacious electric guitar riffs and charming head-bob worthy drum beats. Throughout the song, the vocals possess a vulnerable yet effervescent tone to them. During the chorus, the lyrics touch on the oh-so-relatable topic of the sometimes overwhelming feeling of drowning in self-doubt, the inner mental turmoil we tend to go through, and the feeling of wanting to start the journey of bettering ourselves, yet falling into a never-ending pit because we don't know where to start with lyrics like,
"I'm just holding on right now / Wanting to get better but life just weighs me down / It's getting kinda heavy / Get stressed when I get sad / Wasting time that I don’t have then blame it on myself / Does anybody else?"
After the second chorus, the song bursts with a forceful powerhouse of a bridge with genuine, raw vehement vocals as the lyrics "Do you fake that you're doing well? / Tell your friends you don't need help then blame it on yourself." Are shouted with a sense of indisputable pleading emotion of anguish before looping back through the melodic chorus to close out the song.
"anybody else?" Is an emotionally-driven, infectiously vibrant pop-rock song advocating some of the many dark mental health problems some people face on a daily basis. "anybody else?" Is a perfect listen for anyone searching for a sense of connectivity while going through a grim isolating period of their life.
