Speaking on their new song, Royal Sugar states “This song is about our drug of choice: Toxic relationships.” No matter how hard they try, this is a drug which they cannot quit, as the lyrics read “Every time I put you down I keep picking you up,” describing the addictive yet poisonous position they find themselves in. The torturous lyrics are accompanied by a heavy bass sound, accentuating the intense painful passion of the song’s subject. The glam rock band, always adorned with leather and glittery shimmer, are paving themselves with every new release to become Gen Z’s fronting rock band.
