The Polish grunge rock group Snakedoctors have once again delivered an anthemic single destined to resonate with fans worldwide. Their release “Why Don’t” is an effusive powerhouse that tackles the relatable yet difficult topic of relationship struggles.
The song was tailored by the post-grunge gods themselves. The drums start soft but assemble to a pulsing rhythm, laying the swingy basis for the vocals and guitars to soar. The bass rumbles below, giving the song a hint of funky grittiness signature of the Snakedoctors’ trademark sound. Above it all, the raw, rock-infused vocals passionately belt out a chorus of frustration. The verses reach for higher registers, highlighting the singer’s desperation to connect. The effect is instantly gripping yet bitingly authentic.
