$uicideboy$ - Stop Staring At The Shadows

In the lead-up to *Stop Staring at the Shadows*, $uicideboy$ had already immersed themselves in darkness, with sinister, Juicy J-inspired soundscapes, punk melodies, nihilistic lyrics, and high-energy flows in three-quarter time that sound like a demonic incantation.

Since the duo, consisting of $crim and Ruby da Cherry, released their first projects in 2014, they have blended past and present across dozens of exhilarating releases that could be hedonistic, introspective, and cathartic—the kind of transformation that takes place when the sky turns pitch black.

Their grim, surreal aesthetic remains intact on *Stop Staring*, with glimpses of profound humanity nestled between pounding flows and hymns to opiates.
