Julianna Joy – “Better”

Julianna Joy’s new track “Better” doesn’t just ask for your attention, it earns it. There’s something tense and cinematic baked into the first few seconds of the track, and it keeps you on edge in the best way. The production leans heavy with fuzzed-out guitars and these warped, robotic vocals that feel like a late-night phone call from another planet.

What really pulls you in is how raw and weird it lets itself be. It doesn’t try to be polished. It’s dramatic, but not in a way that feels fake. You can tell this track had a long life before it got released, there’s history in it, and it sounds like Julianna’s been wrestling with this one for a while.

If this is just a preview of what’s coming on her debut album “SOMEBODY CALL THE FIREMEN!”, then it’s safe to say Julianna Joy isn’t interested in playing it safe, and thank god for that. Follow her on socials to stay in the loop for what else she’s dropping in 2025.
