MUSIC FARMER 5 - Review by Adam Jones

The Dangerous Grace of LATE STAGE CRUSH

Today I had the opportunity to review LATE STAGE CRUSH's "Someone Said My Name" - a song which arrives like a breath on a cold windowpane—delicate - fleeting - and impossible to ignore. There is a kind of bravery in it's unique stillness—a refusal to explain, to defend, to ignite. It is deeply rooted, and at it's core, unshakable.


Built around a delicately brushed drumset, a shimmering acoustic guitar, and vocals so tender they seem almost transparent, the song moves with quiet gravity. Every movement is intentional, every rest holding its own shape. LATE STAGE CRUSH sings with a softness that carries weight—like a spiritual hand gently molding memories.


The lyrics cast a spell with their detail and imagery. We are placed inside the mind of someone who has been turned into a story, sculpted into suspicion, and yet chooses calm over chaos. “I sleep / without sound,” she sings, a line that lands like a sigh and stays like a scar.


What makes the song extraordinary is its refusal to twist into anger. This is not a protest song, nor a confession; it is an exhale. LATE STAGE CRUSH doesn’t seek to clear her name—she lets it hang in the air, bruised and misused, until it loses its charge. “I do not burn for them,” she declares. And in that moment, her power becomes absolute.

As the track continues to unfold, a light piano joins in, echoing the song’s sense of emotional drift. The final strum of guitar feels like a door closing softly behind you. No judgment. No applause. Just the sound of a woman walking away without needing to explain a thing.


Someone Said My Name” is the kind of song that lives in the spaces between sentences. LATE STAGE CRUSH has given us something rare: a portrait of restraint that glows from within, lit not by fire—but by the slow, steady heat of truth.
