“LSC is one of the most intense and personal songs we’ve released. It digs deep into power, obsession, and emotional survival, all wrapped in a sound that’s meant to hit you hard and stay with you.

“Haunting, Stirring and Impactful…those words just keep going through our mind as we take in the new single “I’ll See You In The Stars” from Famous Strangers. This one is quite unique with a powerful intensity that is full of rhythm and achieves the rare feat of fury as a pure form of beauty. We really dig this one and you can catch it on your Home for the Best New Rock…” – WJOE – Findlay’s Home for Rock & Roll

About The Single Artwork
The artwork for LSC captures the heart of what the song is about as seen through the eyes of a black widow. At the center is a female figure who is part human, part spider. She sits in a pose that feels both vulnerable and powerful. It is not just horror for the sake of shock. It is a visual metaphor for emotional survival, female power, and the brutal beauty of intimate relationships.
The concept looks at relationships from the black widow’s perspective. It explores the complexity of love, control, attraction, and destruction. The spider-human hybrid represents someone who has been through it all. She is seductive, emotional, and dangerous. Not because she is evil, but because she has learned what it takes to survive.
About the single as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY)
LSC takes you on a ride. It starts out soft, like it is letting you in slowly, and then it flips the switch. The heaviness hits out of nowhere. It grabs you, shakes you, and then drags you through the rest of the track without letting go. It eases you in, then completely takes over, and by the time it is done, it feels like it has drained the life out of you in the best way.
Lyrically, it is intense. The song is told from the perspective of a female figure who is part human and part spider. It is inspired by the mating behavior of black widows, where attraction, intimacy, and destruction all collide. At its core, it is about obsession, power, and survival. It speaks to the emotional weight of wanting something that was never meant to be yours, and the strength it takes to pull yourself back from that edge.
Musically, the track is dynamic and unpredictable. It builds tension, explodes when it needs to, then drops into moments that are almost haunting. It does not follow a formula. Every shift in the song is there to serve the emotion. From the guitars to the drums to the vocals, everything is layered with purpose. It is not just heavy. It is calculated, emotional, and designed to hit hard.
