Picturesque Reveals Darker Side In New Single “Crimes”

Rock band Picturesque is revealing its darker side with the haunting new single “Crimes”. On the new single, vocalist Kyle Hollis shares: “’Crimes’ is our way of getting weird on this record and showing our listeners a new side of us they haven’t heard. We wanted to think outside the box and I feel like we created something exciting and fresh”.

Earlier this year Picturesque dropped their dark and deeply personal single “Swipe”. The song followed last December’s “Pray”, a track that marked a new beginning for the band. Picturesque are embracing a new rule: brutal honesty, both musically and within their lives. No more thinly veiled metaphors, only the honest truth. "Pray" is their first foray into this territory, with devastating lyrics fueled by the recent break up of lead singer Kyle Hollis who, after 6 years in a committed relationship, ventured out into the world of dating apps in an attempt to beat loneliness. What he found was a culture fueled by one night hook-ups, ghosting and unbridled desperation. It’s a dark and shuddering rock song influenced by artists like blackbear and Post Malone - the first taste of what’s to come.
