LET IT BURN: The Haptics Ignite a New Era of Grunge with Their Darkest, Most Daring Release Yet

Vancouver’s The Haptics return with LET IT BURN—a brooding, slow-burning alt-rock statement that cements their place in the modern grunge revival. Dripping with fuzz-drenched riffs, lyrical vulnerability, and an undercurrent of dark romanticism, the album feels like a lost ‘90s classic reimagined for the present.

At the heart of the release is “XOX,” the latest single now impacting radio—a hypnotic blend of emotional grit and sonic tension. With its aching chorus and visceral lyricism ("Now you're holding, you're folding in two / It's got its hold over you"), XOX captures the album's central themes of addiction, loss, and the desperate pull of nostalgia. It's a track that demands repeat listens, striking the perfect balance between haunting and hooky.

Elsewhere on LET IT BURN, songs like “Ghost” and “Vows” explore fractured relationships and identity, while “Neon” and “Masquerade” swirl in dreamlike, dystopian textures. Closing with “Memento,” the album leaves you staring into the fire—uncertain, but awakened.

Grunge may have been born in the '90s, but The Haptics are proving it never died. LET IT BURN is a modern-day torchbearer—urgent, cathartic, and impossible to ignore.
