If the name Joel Christian rings a bell, it might be because of his hit dark pop anthems “Gemini” and “Take My Picture.” It also might be due to our interview with the singer/songwriter back in January. Regardless of why you know him, or if you know him, the point is that Joel Christian needs to be on your radar.

The rising star just dropped his new single, “Rise From The Grave.” Mixing together synth elements, a danceable beat, and catchy lyrics, the next installment into Joel’s horror-inspired discography is his best yet. It’s the type of track that you can’t help but listen to on repeat, thanks to the vision Joel’s laid out for the listener.

Pulling inspiration from all things spooky, Joel’s approach to pop music is a reminder that artistry is much more than just releasing a song. The effort that goes into crafting each track is apparent, and so is the work that goes into developing every detail of Joel’s mysterious, horror-inspired persona. It takes much more than just catchy tunes to be a truly engaging artist; Joel has no issue taking this challenge on, and succeeding at it.

You can stream “Rise From The Grave” below. Keep an eye on Joel Christian — we have a feeling he might become the next big thing.
