"For a brand new artist, Izzy Spears lands a heavy first impression."
Ones To Watch

"A mix of lolling Arctic Monkeys/Interpol-esque indie with a tinge of horrorcore, 'FIST' channels some extremely chaotic energy into a tight minute and forty seconds with muttered refrains of 'redrum, redrum' and 'suck a little dick.' A brief but action packed offering, 'FIST' walks a line between lust and murderous intent, while leaving it opened ended enough that listeners can pretty much project whatever they want onto the track."

Today, Izzy Spears shares "BAD NEWS," the second single off his forthcoming debut EP entitled Monstar, due November 11 via KRO Records.

A lo-fi hyperpop-leaning banger, "BAD NEWS" travels through the stages of grief following a the turbulent end of a relationship. Amidst the heartache and anger in the aftermath, there's still a lingering nostalgic feeling, where you wonder what could've been. Speaking on the track, Izzy wrote: "Love leaves a bruise." It comes alongside a gorgeous music video that capitalizes on the track's intense, and somewhat fantastical nature.

Izzy Spears describes Monstar, his highly-anticipated six-song debut EP, as a sort of encrypted diary entry. Inspired by his own life, each song is very personal, telling a different story about an experience he’s had. But with coded lyrics, the songs leave much up to interpretation for the listeners.

Spears collaborated with DuskdrivenYves Tumor, and Grammy-nominated producer Chris Greatti on Monstar, which blends genres of pop, rock, hip hop, and punk. Other collaborators on the project include NationNicholas Weiss, and Pablo MeléndezYves Rothman mixed the EP. 

KRO Records is a Los Angeles based record label founded by Producers Lawrence Rothman and Yves Rothman.
