REVIEW – With “Hurricane (Reimagined)”, I PREVAIL strips back the storm to reveal the emotional wreckage at its core. Set to appear on their upcoming release ‘POST TRAUMATIC (Live / Deluxe)’, due October 30, 2020 via Fearless Records, this version takes the original anthem of inner conflict and transforms it into a tender, cinematic ballad—less explosion, more erosion.
Gone are the crunching riffs and volatile breakdowns. In their place, lush atmospheres and piano-driven melodies give the lyrics room to breathe—and bleed. Brian Burkheiser’s voice feels especially exposed here, floating above a haunting arrangement that captures the isolation, uncertainty, and quiet desperation buried in the song’s core. It’s a reminder that hurricanes don’t just rage—they leave you rebuilding long after the winds die down.
This reimagined take is bold, vulnerable, and powerful in a whole new way. It speaks to the versatility and vision of a band unafraid to challenge themselves or their fans. Where the original “Hurricane” was a cry for help in a chaotic world, this version feels like the moment after the storm—the silence where you finally take a breath and survey what’s left.
If ‘Trauma’ was about surviving the wreckage, “Hurricane (Reimagined)” is about acknowledging the emotional cost. It’s stripped down, yes, but also deeply layered—proof that I PREVAIL doesn’t just write music, they live inside it.
