Should music be the soul’s language, then Justin Mola’s most recent release, “Better Days,” is an insightful dialogue with a beautiful depth of emotions. The song transports listeners on a journey of emotion with its hypnotic piano chords and Justin’s soul-stirring vocals, telling a narrative that will resonate with anybody who has encountered inner darkness.
The instrumentation of the song evolves throughout as it goes along, generating an expressive and atmospheric experience that is reminiscent of dreamy memories. Justin Mola showcases his adaptability as an artist by masterfully playing the drums, bass guitar, electric guitar, piano, and taking centre stage as the featured vocalist.
The lyrics tell an emotional story of self-doubt, loneliness, and the fight against mental health concerns. They are delivered in an appealing self-conversational style. “Better Days” functions as a stabilising force, allowing listeners to acknowledge their suffering while also reminding them that better times are ahead.
In order to create something truly beautiful, Justin Mola draws inspiration from artists such as SYML, Ed Sheeran, Shawn Mendes, Sleeping With Sirens, and Donovan Woods.
“Better Days” was meticulously produced at exclusive Orlando, Florida studios under Justin Mola’s guidance. Alejandro Suarez handled recording engineering, and Justin himself handled mixing, with Chris Domingo providing the finishing mastering touches.
Justin Mola said it best: “I never knew how much I needed this song until I wrote it and sang it for the very first time.” That statement captures the spirit behind “Better Days”, a tune which spoke volumes to both its author’s personal journey as well as to that of listeners alike.
“Better Days” by Justin Mola serves as a reassuring light amid the gloomy and uncertain world we live in today, serving as a reminder that better days are coming and that it is our collective duty to bring them about.
