The track is a real statement from the emerging artist.
Packing a real hard rock edge and a powerhouse vocal performance to match, latest Massie release ‘Eating Me Alive’ is an impactful example of the guile and potential that the artist possesses in abundance.
The track is also however, stacked full of emotion and holds a real grasp on reality and a sense gravity. There is struggle everywhere and the track serves to highlight how these issues can manifest and seem to completely take over. ‘Eating Me Alive’ is a searingly powerful but nuanced and thoughtful new release.
“We all have our demons. Everyone is dealing and struggling with one thing or another.” Massie says of the track. “‘Eating Me Alive’ is a dialogue between a person and the devil on their shoulder. For me, the song represents how social media makes me feel. It can be hurtful, and negative, a let down and a big discouragement but I continue to give into it. Our generation has become addicts. Addicted to technology and the high from it. We crave attention in new ways that previous generations haven’t. But we aren’t only addicted to technology and social media and attention. We struggle with alcoholism, getting high, adrenaline, living up to beauty standards, fitting in. I think it all causes that thought ‘I hate myself’. We just need to remember that we ARE loved, we ARE wanted, we ARE worth and you are NEVER in this alone.”
