Created in the delirium of sleepless nights and the disorientation of dreamlike mornings during the Covid lockdowns, Night Captivity represents a defining chapter in the production of dark post punk outfit In Covert’s latest album.
The track draws much of its allure from its captivating lyrical presence. Veiled in symbolism and laced with emotional volatility, the words appear like a poisoned prayer, an intimate confession scrawled inside a dream you can’t escape. At once tender and corrosive, the lyrics blur the lines between affection and ruin, conjuring imagery that’s both deeply personal and bleak.
Night Captivity also reflects on the threshold between stillness and agitation, the eerie quiet of a body at rest while the mind spirals unchecked. It's a song that lives in the in-between where sleep offers no sanctuary.
