Cody Frost’s latest release, "BLOODSUCKA", featuring Debbie Gough, comes with an equally striking music video. Unlike abstract visuals, this one straightforwardly complements the track’s story, creating a cohesive and engaging experience.

The song itself is a whirlwind—constantly evolving from start to finish. It flirts with multiple genres, from Nu-metal and Goth to Trap, Dub, and Metalcore, yet manages to stay cohesive. This genre-hopping is no small feat; each section feels distinct enough to stand alone, yet together they form a captivating whole. The “new nostalgic” vibe ties it all together, making it feel equally fitting for today or a decade ago.

At times, the track evokes Charli XCX, Korn, and even Asking Alexandria—but without ever feeling derivative. Fans of those artists will likely find something to love here. It’s a testament to how unformulaic music has become lately, embracing experimentation and unpredictability.

BLOODSUCKA also feels like a product of our “fast” culture, where attention-grabbing shifts thrive on social platforms. It’s almost as if the song itself tests how far this dynamic can be pushed—keeping listeners constantly hooked without losing artistic depth.

This bold, genre-blending track is a fascinating listen and a showcase of strong creative expression. Watch the video if you dare, and experience it for yourself!
