Letting go of deeply held religious beliefs feels akin to shedding a second skin, one that’s protected, constrained, and defined you. There is a raw, aching emptiness in losing the familiar rituals and doctrines that once anchored your world, like a child weaned from the comforting lullabies of certainty. Yet, in this painful unbinding, there lies profound liberation. The heart aches for the divine approval that once guided it, but gradually, there’s an understanding that love was never something external to be sought. The loss paves the way for the realization that spirituality isn’t tethered to dogma, but unfolds within.
Springing forth from the disciplined halls of classical music, Miss Trezz leaps headlong into the throbbing, unpredictable world of modern electronica, shattering conventions along the way. Her voice, fierce and electric, echoes the sharp energy of Phantogram and the relentless drive of Metric, yet those comparisons hardly capture her essence.
Her powerful latest single, Last Rites, created with her talented collaborator Travis Bacon, critiques the constraints of organized religion and the emotional turmoil it can provoke, culminating in a powerful declaration of individuality and resistance. The song describes a departure from religious beliefs – and the pain associated with that loss. The imagery of confession, sin, and pleading for redemption is intertwined with themes of darkness, broken trust, and a descent into a personal hell. The song captures a sense of spiritual abandonment and desperation.
Miss Trezz herself directed the Dario Argento-inspired music video, as she whispers confessions through crimson lips in a shadow-drenched church confessional. The scene shifts to a desolate beach, wild waves crashing as she dances, torn between faith’s suffocating grip and the raw freedom of nature’s untamed embrace.
Watch the video for “Last Rites” below:
Classical roots serve as a mere starting point for Miss Trezz; from there, she dives deep into the brooding currents of darkwave, the pounding rhythms of industrial, and the hypnotic flow of trip-hop. She twists expectations—a gothic pop edge here, an operatic rise there, hints of jazz teasing the unexpected. Then, without warning, she plunges into the frenzied chaos of synthwave or Nu Metal, unafraid, unrestrained. Miss Trezz refuses stillness, her art an evolving, defiant force, relentlessly pushing the boundaries of genre and daring any label to contain her.
