Copper Lungs explores bold new sounds with their latest track Pieces of Me
If you’re new to Copper Lungs, Pieces of Me is the perfect song to start with. This new single is a mix of everything we love about anthemic pop-rock, but with the emotional weight of a ballad. It’s equal parts grateful, vulnerable, and hopeful — a hard combo to pull off, but Copper Lungs does it so well.
Moving away from their usual indie-rock vibe, the Dundee-based band is now exploring more textured sounds and is determined to push their music in a fresh, bolder direction. As the song builds, you’re hit with a wave of ambient, layered synths and soaring guitar riffs. This track is a great snapshot of a band in evolution, bringing a more anthemic feel to their sound and making Pieces of Me one of their most dynamic tracks yet.
The fun part of the story behind the song is how it turned into something bigger than they first planned. Darren, the band’s songwriter, mentioned that Pieces of Me started out with a lighter, indie vibe. But as the band got into it, they let the song take on a life of its own, growing into something huge, engaging and honestly, kind of addictive!
The lyrics talk about the kind of love that finds you when you’re at a low point and ends up bringing you back to life. There’s a sense of looking back on tough times with a bit of gratitude, realising they’ve made you stronger and led you to this moment. That authentic emotion comes through clearly, and it’s even more impressive when you find out that Pieces of Me was written in just about an hour!
For fans who’ve been following Copper Lungs, this shift in sound shows a band that’s willing to step out of their comfort zone and try something new. They’ve kept the heart and honesty that fans love, but now with an edge that’s bold and refreshing. Pieces of Me definitely feels like the start of a new chapter, and we’re lucky enough to be along for the ride!

As if dropping a three-pack project filled with bangers was not eye-catching enough, Burgeoning Ghanaian talent NSRB Dray has served another masterpiece with the release of his new single “Eye for Eye.”
Known for singing from raw emotions, NSRB Dray takes it a step further in this new release where he talks about being in a state of despair and self-doubt.
However, there’s no doubt about his intentions on the record. NSRB Dray goes in hard from the first beat drop on the YNT Deezy-produced track.
On “Eye for Eye,” he glides on the boppy instrumentals for two minutes straight, highlighting the world’s abundance of greed, unforgiveness, ego, and pride.
He opens with his version of the famous Mahatma Gandhi saying, “An eye for an Eye leaves the world blind,” before letting his baritone vocals shine through what can pass a “here’s how the world works” pep talk to the listeners.
The record boasts of superior rawness draped around melodious saxophone sounds by Sam Aryee, missing in so many fine-tuned street-preaching jams lately. NSRB Dray’s delivery stands out as the lyrics pierce the ears and hearts of the listeners to nod and note down.
He shared the reason for his choice of lyrics exclusively to Amplify Ghana, stating that his never-give-up spirit pushed him to send a message of hope to his audience.
“Eye for Eye is a music piece written in a state of disrepair and self-doubt. It talks about not giving up and staying well composed in every situation,” he explained.
After dropping “PLAN B” which touched on a similar subject matter, last year, this new release could easily pass as his master plan, but the singer’s unpredictability and versatility means fans can expect different sounds from him.
“Eye for Eye,” is NSRB Dray’s 2025 welcome message. It was mixed by the singer and mastered by talented sound engineer QID Korle.
