The experience of watching your mind self-destruct — a slow implosion of intrusive thoughts and untamed emotion — is one many know too well. London-based metalcore band Electron offer the antidote through their unrelenting sound.
They’ve earned praise from renowned outlets like Kerrang!, Total Rock, PowerPlay Magazine, BraveWords, Express FM, Notion, Earmilk and more, carving out a raw and honest space for listeners navigating the wreckage of their own inner worlds.

Their new single, ‘You Betray,’ fully captures that chaos, projecting it outward while grounding it in a deeply introspective core. Refusing to shy away from emotional volatility, the track confronts self-sabotage and the fractured mirror of identity. With post-grunge influences, crushing riffs, and thunderous percussion, Electron builds a soundscape that strikes with both brute force and deliberate vulnerability — an anthem for those fighting their minds while clinging to hope.

Themes of emotional disconnection, buried rage, and the quiet desperation for self-redemption course through the track, exposing the raw underbelly of the human condition. Electron’s songwriting strips away any facade, offering kinship to those who feel broken in a world that often demands we suffer in silence.

With an urgent and unfiltered message, ‘You Betray’ amplifies what sets Electron apart — a fearless, emotionally charged voice in modern metal’s burgeoning wave, continuing to push the genre into deeper, darker territory without losing sight of catharsis and connection.

‘You Betray’ is out now.
