Genie in the bottle, tell me what I need. SLOE JACK doesn’t just deliver music, he unleashes confessions. With his latest single, GENIE, the Australian vocalist and producer fuses grunge, metal, and rap into an unfiltered portrait of addiction’s grip. Out now via Interscope Records, the track channels ‘90s rock nostalgia with flanged guitar riffs and arena-rattling percussion, while SLOE JACK's searing lyrics cut deep. Gritty, relentless, and emotionally charged, "GENIE" is more than a song—it’s an anthem for those battling their demons. “GENIE” holds personal weight for Jack Garrity, aka SLOE JACK, who bares his struggles with alcohol and the cyclical pain of addiction. He reveals:
I started drinking at 15, growing up in an outback town where alcohol is a big problem that no one talks about. For me, it was a way to cope with the violent household I lived in, but it nearly took me under.
Pulling inspiration from Silverchair, AC/DC, Spiderbait, and Alice in Chains, the track encapsulates both the defiance and despair of fighting addiction—giving voice to a battle many endure in silence. This latest release builds on SLOE JACK’s explosive streak, following JUMP OUT THE WINDOW, RISPERIDONE, and LANDMINE; each track offering raw introspection and gripping visuals. With "GENIE," SLOE JACK continues to push boundaries, both sonically and emotionally, crafting music which resonates with those who need it most.
