““Chasing the Past” addresses the challenge of holding on to fading emotions and showcases The New Citizen Kane’s remarkable talent for incorporating storytelling into their music. The emotional depth of these songs is palpable, inviting the listener to reflect on their own experiences.” - Carl
“The Schizophonic Club Mix of “Forget The World.” is the kind of remix that feels destined for underground dancefloors rather than Spotify playlists. Darker, dirtier, and unapologetically experimental, it hints at a bolder direction that Kane might want to explore more thoroughly in the future.”
