Halsey is back with “Carry The Weight,” a new single that hits with a rougher, more anthemic edge. Driven by electric guitar and anchored by a hook that sticks fast, the track feels built to be shouted back, but it still leaves room for a more stripped-down moment before it closes.
What makes the release stand out is that push between force and vulnerability. There is a heaviness to it, but not in a way that drags, it moves with purpose and lands with the kind of emotional charge Halsey knows how to make feel immediate.
Following “Safeword,” this one adds another strong piece to Halsey’s current run. Big, catchy, and a little bruised around the edges, “Carry The Weight” sounds like the kind of song that is meant to stay with people.
