There’s a particular kind of album that sends you hurtling into the forgotten corners of your mind. And 'Love in an Existential Crux' is that kind of record as it stares directly into the abyss and asks what survives the gaze.


Barcelona's Cosmic Madness builds this collection from a place of solitude and inner interrogation, giving us the feel of emotional exorcisms committed to tape. This is alternative rock with its sleeves rolled up, grappling with the big, uncomfortable questions most of us try to drown out.


Musically, the album thrives on friction. Thick, overdriven guitar lines grind against mechanical pulses and electronic undercurrents, creating a push-and-pull between the organic and the synthetic.


Opening offering 'Domain Change' stands as the album’s ignition point. Built around a central guitar motif that feels both restless and cathartic, it channels a sense of internal fracture into something strangely energising. It’s the kind of track that captures that late-night spiral of thought before translating it into both volume and momentum.


Throughout the record, love is framed as a stabilising force rather than anything more literal . And it's that philosophical undercurrent that gives the album its spine. Even when the music feels jagged or volatile, there’s a desire to understand these emotions rather than to simply vent them.


'Love in an Existential Crux' is bold, cerebral, and emotionally charged. It’s music for the overthinkers, the insomniacs, and the ones who can’t switch off the noise. And instead of promising escape, Cosmic Madness offers confrontation, clarity, and the quiet strength of choosing connection anyway.
