Uncommon Addiction's "Setting The Night On Fire": A Cathartic Blaze of Sound There’s nothing quite like the smell of molten guitar riffs in the morning. You don’t get that from a perfume bottle; you get it from “Setting The Night On Fire,” the latest release from Uncommon Addiction. This isn’t just music—it feels more like a meteor about to crash into a lake of gasoline. The sky’s the limit, right? Well, Santiago Abad wants you to look through the clouds and realize that it’s raining grief and anger, and it’s not stopping anytime soon. https://open.spotify.com/album/3tIHKpOOMKJwqyJgP9VEba?si=NEOFeOvXT1ueZhO85CE6lA The instrumental rock/electronic fusion here reminds me more of a burning cathedral than a song; towering and jagged, yet eerily empty, like there are ghosts in the reverb. Pablo Amador’s drums pulse erratically, as if keeping time with a broken heart, while his bass growls beneath like the murmur of old regrets. You can practically hear the heavy breath of frustration between the rolls.

Anger, at first sharp and fiery, mellows into sorrow through dynamic shifts that feel like emotional weather patterns. One moment you're caught in a storm of distorted guitars, and the next you're floating in space, haunted by Ula Wordaz’s sleek production that lets the guitars wail like a widow at midnight. The song doesn’t seem to offer answers—only catharsis. Is this release about letting go or burning down the memories? Maybe both? It's like Joan of Arc with a distortion pedal: blurring the line between destruction and salvation. In the end, “Setting The Night On Fire” doesn’t burn out—it smolders in the back of your mind long after it ends. A flicker of fury. A spark of release.
