BC's The Kyle Jordan Project’s “Waves” Is a Psychedelic Masterclass, Out Now
The Kyle Jordan Project’s new single Waves is not just a song—it’s a full-body experience. With soaring guitars, hypnotic melodies, and lyrics that read like poetry scribbled on the walls of the cosmos, Waves takes listeners on a raw, emotional trip through ego death, fear, and transcendence.
Opening with the line, “Thought I could escape through a stamp on my tongue,” the track launches into a vivid and surreal journey of psychedelic self-confrontation. From its eerie opening to its swelling, cathartic chorus, the song captures the chaos and clarity of a mind unraveling and reforming in real time.
“It came in waves, pinning me down / It came in waves, spreading me out”—the repeated chorus feels like a mantra, simultaneously surrendering to fear and celebrating release. With masterful production, sharp musicianship, and a fearless lyrical voice, Waves cements The Kyle Jordan Project as a vital force in modern rock.
As Rolling Stone México’s Pablo Monroy puts it: “Really well-crafted, solid musicianship, tight production, and a clear sense of identity.”
If you’ve ever wrestled with yourself, your fears, or your place in the universe, this one’s going to hit hard.
Chi siamo
The Kyle Jordan Project è un gruppo rock moderno con sede a Victoria, Canada, che offre musica cruda, senza paura e connessa. Formato ufficialmente nel gennaio del 2025, il trio include Kyle Jordan May (vocali di fondo, chitarre, batterie), Greg Van Kerkhof (vocali di lead, basso) e Erick Gerber (vocali, chitarre, sintesi). La band è emersa dal viaggio di resilienza di Kyle dopo una diagnosi di tumore al cervello, con la composizione di canzoni diventando un punto chiave durante il recupero. Kyle si connette con Greg, un musicista del metal progressivo, che ha introdotto Erick dalla band Red Helen.
La loro musica mescola influenze rock moderne, combinando emozioni crude e racconti con il grido di band come Royal Blood e The Glorious Sons. Il loro ultimo singolo, Demons, è rimasto sulle radio globali per otto settimane, raggiungendo il numero 7 sulle Worldwide Rock Charts. Conosciuta per le sue melodie affascinanti e il suo coro anemico, la traccia risuona profondamente con i temi della lotta e del trionfo.
Inspired by a wide array of genres—from blues and Americana to modern pop and progressive metal—the band cites influences like Led Zeppelin, Janis Joplin, Killswitch Engage, and Billie Eilish. Proudly endorsed by Godin Guitars and signed to SODEH Records, The Kyle Jordan Project continues to push boundaries, crafting unique and powerful songs with plans for a 2026 tour.
