Having To Stay Under The Radar – Rock Act PHANTOM-X Release New Single [Iran]

By on July 31, 2024

Yes, we are most definitely a hardcore, punk, and metal website so writing about an alternative rock band is not usually something we do. That is unless, the members of said band come from the world of hardcore, punk and metal.

For the following post, it was this part of their submission that got us:

“As an indie band, Phantom-X typically stay under the radar of Iran’s mainstream audience. However, since the band’s formation, Phantom-X have been steadily building a following through private performances. Their music is cheerful, upbeat, and highly versatile, while their lyrics address the challenges and tribulations faced by their generation. This contrast between the vibrant sound and poignant lyrics embodies the band’s philosophy of maintaining hope amid utter hopelessness.​​”

So read below:

Tehran-based alternative rock band PHANTOM-X has released a new single, “Māh”, meaning ‘Moon’ in Farsi, featuring Maryjane.

​”Māh” explores a profound sense of being lost and aimlessly searching for unattainable goals. Alireza, the band’s vocalist and primary lyricist, penned this evocative track during the COVID-19 lockdowns, a period when the world seemed to be at a standstill. The song captures the collective feeling of uncertainty and introspection that defined that time, delving into themes of isolation, disconnection, and the elusive nature of purpose. Through its haunting melodies and introspective lyrics, “Māh” resonates deeply with listeners, offering a moving reflection on the human experience during one of the most challenging times in recent history.
