Berlin newcomers Void Queen announce their debut EP I WANNA KNOW, arriving August 21, with the release of ‘Power Sip’ – a punchy, hard-hitting rock track that pairs emotional vulnerability with unapologetic attitude. Exploring the search for meaning in an increasingly empty world, the single wrestles with self-confrontation, isolation and the danger of losing yourself while chasing something more.

Launching with a barrage of guitars before pulling back to spotlight Vilte Stasiuleviciute’s slightly raspy, commanding vocals, ‘Power Sip’ wastes no time making an impression. A dirty, driving bassline keeps the momentum surging beneath the surface, while the band’s gritty rock sound favours immediacy over brooding restraint. It’s bold, energetic and packed with enough bite to match the weight of its lyrical themes without ever feeling weighed down by them.

While ‘Power Sip’ explores some heavy subject matter, Void Queen deliver it with conviction rather than despair. It’s an assured introduction to a band who already sound confident in their identity, blending raw intensity with memorable hooks and setting high expectations for what’s to come on I WANNA KNOW.
