Have you ever heard of the genre doomgaze? You have now. Los Angeles-based doomgaze band Iress has given Billie Eilish’s iconic “What Was I Made For” a heavier edge. The drums hit harder, the guitars buzz louder, and the lyrics land with even more impact.
The vocal delivery is breathtaking and powerful. The bands’ talented frontwoman, Michelle Malley, soars throughout the track, hitting every note with a sound that feels both organic and confident. One standout lyrics change also should be noticed. “don’t tell my boyfriend” is reworked as “don’t tell my girlfriend,” giving the track a much-needed update and affirming Billie Eilish’s LGBTQ identity.
