VICIOUS DREAMS, a power pop punk trio hailing from Florida, have unleashed their latest album, Turn Off My Brain, and it’s every bit as compelling as the title suggests.

As the name implies, the album delves deep into the themes of mental health, specifically focusing on the struggles of living with ADHD and anxiety in an already chaotic world. The title track, “Tomb,” encapsulates this perfectly, with lyrics like, “But I don’t want to think about it anymore, my stomach aches, my body’s sore. Why can’t I turn off my brain?” This song stands out as my personal favorite, as it tackles serious and relatable issues, but wraps them in a fun, catchy melody that keeps you hooked.

Musically, the album is a whirlwind of energy, with songs that are fast, frenetic, and bursting with life. Despite the intense subject matter, the tracks have a light-hearted and playful vibe, making them both infectious and enjoyable to listen to. VICIOUS DREAMS effortlessly blend pop and punk elements, creating a sound that is reminiscent of bands like Horrorpops, albeit with a stronger focus on punk rather than rockabilly.

Turn Off My Brain is a solid addition to VICIOUS DREAMS’ discography, offering a perfect mix of catchy tunes and thought-provoking lyrics. Whether you’re looking to dance out your frustrations or simply enjoy some high-energy music with substance, this album is definitely worth a listen.
