Zander, an American who has become a unique voice in today's independent music scene, offers a sharp critique of American society with his latest EP, "PROJECT 2025." This 13-minute, 55-second album, with six carefully arranged tracks, prompts you to reflect on how you interact with the world and with each other by combining dark humor, harsh social criticism, and sharp musicality.
From the start of the EP, Zander strikes an outstanding balance between humor and urgency. "Did You Hear?!" and other songs showcase his ability to turn harsh satire into catchy tunes, and "Safe?" explores the problems and fears of modern life with a frank, self-reflective tone. When you listen to all of these songs together, you can see that Zander's goal is to bring attention to social injustices and encourage people to work together.
For "PROJECT 2025," Zander wrote, recorded, and produced the entire EP by himself. This shows an entirely independent creative process that fits with the project's themes of personal and civic responsibility. Each song has a voice that is both funny and serious, and they all question, challenge, and don't back down from power structures, hypocrisy, and the real-world effects of policy decisions.
"IT'S TOO LATE" examines how communities let injustice persist and how society has double standards. "My Fellow Americans..." ends the EP with a moving meditation on shared responsibility and the effects of not acting together. The EP's short, six-track format makes sure that every idea is clear and powerful throughout.
Zander's "PROJECT 2025" is an excellent place for people who want to hear music that is both fun and thought-provoking. The EP shows that Zander is a musician who isn't afraid to talk about the problems in America today, and he does it funnily with socially aware lyrics and great production.
