Returning from a two-year hiatus, Eddie & The Wolves have resurrected an old jewel from the archives, giving it a new life as a hard-hitting, explosive rock anthem. ‘See Me Fall 2085’ is exactly that, a slice of unapologetic fierceness and unmatched charisma propped up by thunderous drums, gritty guitar, and an overall eclectic aural formula. You see, the record pulls from a wide pool of influences, and while the main focus seems to land on 80s-inspired glam rock, the piece also benefits from hints of heavy metal and pop-leaning melodism.
It’s a melting pot of classic rock allure that never really gets tired. In fact, ‘See Me Fall 2085’ is particularly intense and urgent, a sonic slap in the face, so to speak! Guided by husband-and-wife creative pair Edd Saffell and Char Saffell, Eddie & The Wolves appear to have found a new lease of excitement, one that’s anchored in tradition, but also boldly looking ahead. There’s a reason if the band describes their genre as ‘Future Blues’, a denomination that’s partly confirmed by the single’s intro, echoing haunting synthwave arpeggios.
Delving deeper into the song’s nuanced lyrical message, Eddie & The Wolves explain: “At its core, the song lives in a space of desperation and longing, exploring the intensity of being deeply in love while simultaneously craving that love to be returned with the same depth and urgency. There’s a vulnerability in wanting to be seen, valued, and met halfway. On another level, the song can be read as a protest, a plea directed at society, institutions, and government, asking to be treated with fairness, dignity, and basic human respect.”
