If there are songs that effectively convey the frustration and the vehement rage of youth given the current political climate that we now have, “Prison 2024” by the Gender Reveal Atomic Bomb (GRAB) is definitely one of the tops on that list. “Prison 2024” is the sixth single released, written, performed, and produced by the Belgium-based band led by siblings Beau and Blaise Ramsey, along with the band members Senna Schoofs on guitar, Anaïs Stassen Verpoest on drums, and Annabella Van Cappellen on additional vocals.
This track unapologetically stands and protests strongly against the political figure Donald Trump through its fierce and uncompromising prog-rock instrumentation. This is rage, frustration, power, and honesty in a song—it’s something that you’d always think about.
“Prison 2024” is a channel. Every note, riff, hit of the drums, and scream translates into a powerful mix of anger and frustration that delivers a clear message: hate. The track opens with that gut-churning scream of lyrics that lists off the crimes committed by Trump—the lines are unforgiving, accompanied by the heavy layer of pounding bass and drums along with those strong guitar riffs. As the song progresses, the production and arrangement of this song don’t falter, which is impressive—it is sharp and very good punk rock quality.
Through their song, Gender Reveal Atomic Bomb has successfully showcased their power and social awareness toward the current political climate. They are aware, and they have managed to channel their battle cry and frustrations to their listeners through their well-crafted and impressive production.
