Rock/Review Cherry Flavoured - Povej Naglas!
Formed in Celje and now based in Ljubljana, Cherry Flavoured is a four-piece alt-pop rock group bringing together powerful vocals, layered guitars, and honest storytelling. Active in their current lineup for over three years, the band has built a loyal following through energetic live shows and relatable, Slovenian-language songs that bridge emotion and modern rock sensibility.
With their latest single “Povej Naglas!” (“Say It Out Loud!”), Slovenia’s fast-rising alt-pop rock outfit Cherry Flavoured deliver their most compelling track to date — a vibrant blend of youthful urgency, emotional honesty, and undeniable melodic pull. Known for their infectious energy and heartfelt songwriting, the band once again proves why they are quickly becoming one of the most exciting voices in the region’s contemporary rock scene.
From the first riff, “Povej Naglas!” bursts with confidence. The band merges glossy alt-pop textures with a rugged rock edge, crafting a modern sound that sits comfortably alongside acts like Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, and Måneskin. Yet the fact that the track is sung entirely in Slovenian gives it its own distinctive heartbeat — a refreshing reminder that bold, universal emotion transcends language.
Lyrically, the song explores the courage it takes to speak the truth, especially when silence feels safer. Cherry Flavoured channel this tension through tightly woven guitar lines, dynamic drums, and a soaring chorus that feels tailor-made for live shows. It’s an anthem about reconnecting, breaking through emotional barriers, and daring to voice what truly matters.
What sets the band apart is their sincerity. Cherry Flavoured are an authentic young group unafraid to write about real issues — relationships, vulnerability, self-expression — with both tenderness and bite. “Povej Naglas!” captures that spirit beautifully.
Bold, catchy, and emotionally resonant, this single not only marks a major step forward for Cherry Flavoured but also signals a band fully ready for wider international recognition.
