Lana Crow – “Orwellian Times”

Lana Crow’s new single “Orwellian Times” takes on the noise of modern life in a way that’s direct but still catchy. It’s a pop-rock track with grit, built around sharp observations about online outrage, performative morals, and how easy it is to get swept up in it all, and the lines about self-righteousness hit hard, and there’s a sense that she’s not scolding anyone.

The song points out how we’ve invited a lot of this into our lives under the excuse of doing good, when sometimes it’s more about keeping score or being seen doing the right thing. Lana brings that idea across without being preachy. It’s more like she’s tossing out a question and asking you to think about it, and Lana has a clear point of view, and that gives the song meaning. The chorus is big, and the overall energy feels built to be played loud, it’s thoughtful but never boring, which is a tough balance to pull off. I’m pretty sure you will love this ong as much as I did.

“Orwellian Times” is a solid introduction to who Lana Crow is as an artist. If you’re into songs that actually say something, this one’s worth your time. Follow her on socials to see what else she’s got coming this year.
