High Time

Single / Jun 12, 2026 / 1 track

An energetic pop-punk breakup anthem about digging through wreckage, finding old ghosts, and realizing some memories do not stay buried.

High Time digs through the wreckage of a breakup, finding the ghosts you tried to throw away and the ache of a life that almost happened.

Project Identity

World and Sound

Blackout State turns pop-punk toward aftermath: breakup wreckage, half-buried memories, and the ache of a life that almost happened.

No Manual, No Master gives the project its defiant backbone; High Time brings that defiance into a raw, loud breakup anthem.

The sound should feel urgent and emotionally scraped-up, built for the space between heartbreak and release.
