A Beautiful Kind of Burn

Noam Peri’s “Poison,” built on a cinematic indie rock-pop foundation, captures the slow unraveling of a relationship that once felt essential but now feels impossible to stay in. There’s an immediacy to it, but also patience—Poison takes its time, letting emotions rise, break, and settle again.

Sonically, the track is rich and immersive. Electric guitars and commanding keyboards sit alongside layered synths that create constant movement, as if the music itself is searching for balance. The production mirrors emotional instability beautifully, shifting from restrained, almost fragile moments into sweeping, cathartic surges. These transitions never feel abrupt; instead, they echo the inner push and pull of holding on versus letting go.

What stands out most is the emotional honesty at the center of the song. Poison doesn’t dramatize pain for effect—it simply allows it to exist. There’s space here for sadness, loneliness, and self-reflection, all handled with a quiet confidence that makes the experience feel deeply human. The vulnerability feels intentional rather than exposed, which gives the track its strength.

By the time the song ends, it leaves behind a sense of release rather than resolution. Poison isn’t about neat endings; it’s about acknowledging damage, learning from it, and slowly reclaiming yourself. With this release, Noam Peri transforms heartbreak into something immersive, expressive, and quietly powerful—proof that pain, when treated with care, can become art worth revisiting.
