E. Alvin’s ‘Bad For You’ is an Unapologetic Open Letter to Abusive Partners

E. Alvin

E. ALVIN is minimalism spiked with a synthetic vibrance. Relying on heavy bass, moody melodies, and honest lyricism, E. Alvin cultivates an individualized world of his own. With sonic similarities to filmmaker John Carpenter and the likeness of left-field pop/experimental-r&b singers such as Broods, Banks, SOHN, etc, E. Alvin still finds a way to uphold his originality.

With two full EPs under his belt, it was no surprise recognition would follow. In 2016, E. Alvin made his debut with a body of work entitled “MIDAS”. It was an eclectic collection of five songs that exhibited his knack for pop and r&b.

E. Alvin is setting to release far more music in 2019, periodically putting out singles that strongly refine and establish a signature style. The leading single of the year is entitled Bad For You, a brooding and unapologetic confrontation towards an abusive ex. Accompanied by sinister synths and punching lyricism, E. delivers a new side of vulnerability with a bit more bite than his recent single, BODY. Released today, February 28th, not too long after Valentine’s Day, Bad For You is the song that reassures listeners there is strength in turning a cold shoulder to the person that hurt you.
