The Anix has dropped his latest single “Sinking Alone” the next single to materialize ahead of his upcoming album VOLTAGE, due in late 2024 from FiXT. 

In his own words The Anix explains, ‘Sinking Alone‘ is a nod to some of the early 90’s bands like HUM, Weezer, Failure and STP. You have these super intimate and quiet parts where it feels like it’s just the vocalist in a room with a guitar, then it goes into full-send with this explosion when the full band clocks in for work. I used vintage fuzz pedals and several overdubs of bass guitars and Fender Bass VI to get this juggernaut massive tone. Phil Collins is one of my favorite drummers, so I took inspiration from GENESIS for some of the drum parts, but this is intended to be a modern song when it comes to the lyrical theme. I find it odd that in a time where we are more connected than ever before in human history, the majority of us feel more alone than ever.”

A captivating nod to ’90s grunge, “Sinking Alone” embraces both the past era and our modern world exploring themes of isolation in a world where communication is at our fingertips. The single showcases a masterful blend of grunge, alternative rock, and modern rock, bringing a fresh yet nostalgic sound to listeners worldwide. The Anix‘s ability to translate emotional depth through haunting melodies and intricate guitar work coupled with his engaging vocal performance and compelling lyrics creates an emotional journey for the listener, reflecting the complexities of modern solitude.

The Anix is the alternative / electronic-rock project of Los Angeles artist/producer Brandon Smith. Known for pushing creative boundaries with his genre-blending mix of alternative rock with dark melancholic undertones drenched in an array of synthesizers, The Anix’s music has captured the attention of global editorial curators with prominent features across official playlists from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Yandex Music, and more. The Anix has received press support from outlets like Revolver, Substream, and Outburn magazines as well as features in TV and video game franchises including Call of Duty, Destiny, Mass Effect, and WWE.
