That is what Novarupta needed to say concerning the new single:
”’The Bullet Shines Earlier than Influence’ attracts inspiration from put up punk, goth, electro and the choice scene discovered within the ’90s, mixing all of it collectively to create a musical melancholic voyage via feelings. As with many different Novarupta songs, this tune actually got here along with the hauntingly lovely voice of Kristofer Åström from the powerhouse that’s Hearth.
