There aren’t many who can belt out raw passion quite like Rose Cora Perry. In “Excuses,” her new single with her powerhouse band The Truth Untold, Perry makes it absolutely clear that she’s done sugarcoating the truth.
“Excuses” sprang from a musical breakup story in life. Disbanding her previous group with her former classmate, Perry may have hit pause, but she also, in the tradition of a true rock warrior, picked up her guitar and simply wrote through it. The song is an anthem of liberation, a defiant line in the sand that serves as the band’s mission statement moving forward, a collective unwilling to be molded or hold back their truths.
Perry unleashes a storm of frustration, betrayal, and deliverance, all distilled through the finest blends of punk defiance and arena-rock bravado. The track feels like it pulses with the DNA of uprising, grunge grit, and a straight-up hard rock edge. It’s that kind of song, the kind that has to be turned up, fists made, voices lifted. But underneath the distortion and the driving drumbeat is something more primal: an act of fearlessness in moving on. Even through the behind-the-scenes turmoil, Perry kept their summer tour alive, bringing on its newest member in a matter of days, a microcosmic trip that speaks to not only her resilience but also her commitment to the music and message.
Rose Cora Perry is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to stage presence and songwriting. As always, the Truth Untold lives up to its title, never watering down its message to make it more palatable to others. The song radiates confidence and assertiveness, seamlessly blending catchy accessibility with pure punk-rock snarl. “Excuses,” is a rallying cry for anyone who’s ever had enough.
