Posted by VMan on April 28, 2023
Using music as an effective tool for self-expression and introspection, Guard has cultivated an entrancing style of indie-pop over the years. Born in South Africa but mostly raised in Australia, Guard’s childhood was filled with a passion for pop culture and pop music. A diversely talented individual, Guard is also proficient in filmmaking, graphic design, songwriting, poetry.
Merging these skills, his musical influences, and pure creativity, Guard has returned with his new bewitching single, “luvbomb”. Embedding mystifying sequences of guitar and slow-tempo percussion, these elements are shaped around Guard’s dreamy vocals. Putting listeners in a trance, his seductive singing has a powerful story behind it.
The lyrics in “luvbomb” shed light on relationship toxicity, manipulation, and narcissism. He challenges his audience to think deeply and reflect on their past experiences while losing themselves in the song. Accompanying “luvbomb”, is a breathtaking music video that explores these topics as well. It is a reality-distorting display of haunting and crazy shots, such as Guard throwing up, being smeared with cake, and strapped to a chair.
If one thing is for certain, it is that Guard is an artist that has the X-factor. Keep your eye peeled for this groundbreaking visionary as he continues to deliver mind-bending auditory and visual projects.
