April 22, 2025 – New York, NY – Spells and Curses returns with a hauntingly beautiful new single, “Just Like That”—a gut-wrenching track that delves into the abrupt and jarring finality of love lost. Inspired by the idea of Chris Cornell writing a heartbreak anthem with The Beatles backing him, the song combines raw, soaring vocals with lush harmonies, timeless songwriting, and a powerful sense of vulnerability.

“It’s about how love that once seemed eternal can vanish in an instant,” says theRave, the creative force behind Spells and Curses. “It captures the disbelief, the regret, and the helplessness that linger long after a breakup.”

Written and recorded entirely in his room, “Just Like That” is a testament to theRave’s ability to create deeply personal yet universally relatable music. Every instrument, vocal layer, and harmony was carefully crafted from the ground up, paying special attention to the delicate balance between intimacy and grandeur. The result is a track that flawlessly blends 90s alternative rock grit with 60s melodic influences, all wrapped in the emotionally charged sound Spells and Curses is known for.
During the recording process, theRave ventured into new creative territory—experimenting with layered harmonies as an instrument in their own right and meticulously crafting dynamic shifts to elevate the song's climaxes. Though the journey wasn’t without challenges, particularly in balancing raw emotion with polished production, the end result is a track that feels both intensely personal and anthemic.
Spells and Curses will hit the road this summer, performing in select cities across Europe and the U.S. For more information, visit www.spellsandcurs.es.
“Just Like That” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
