Experimental artist Jane Remover creates and destroys simultaneously on their intense, chaotic third studio album Revengeseekerz. 

I first encountered Jane Remover through this LP’s lead single ‘JRJRJR’, a video-gamey, blown out rage trap song that would later serve as the conclusion to their upcoming album. Clips from their music video and “blaccent cafe” memes drew me into Jane’s world. And I am forever grateful.

Revengeseekerz is the most challenging album I’ve ever listened to. 

By challenge, I mean that this album did not click for me first, second, or even third listen. But the pure singularity of this album kept me coming back. 

On first listen, I found that I struggled to enjoy songs like ‘Psychoboost’ and ‘Dark night castle’ because of how left-field they were for me. EDM, in my mind, was entirely pigeonholed as ‘oontz-oontz music’. I hear it in video games and movies alike, but it personally was not the kind of music I intentionally sought out to listen to. These songs, however, broadened my palette. Psychoboost is just that, a boost to the mind. It’s like Celsius in sound. 

What I came to honor the most about Revengeseekerz is the integrity and self-awareness that Jane maintains throughout it. Jane Remover is not a rapper. Moreover, Jane Remover is not Ken Carson. Despite what the production and the lead singles may tell you, there is a lot more than just rage trap on this record. This isn’t to minimize the genre or glorify its deconstruction on this record, it’s merely to applaud the ambition of this record and the bountiful reward that intentionally gives a piece of artwork. Intentional and consistent production choices and songwriting elements make this album the adventure it is. It’s not ordinary and it doesn’t play it safe. However, in that very same breath, the album is not painfully experimental. It’s not abstract to the point of negative replay value. It doesn’t hinge itself on shock value and being ‘different’. There is a balance between fulfillment and innovation I don’t believe many have captured in this genre, especially not like Jane. 

This uber awareness allows Jane to detonate the boundaries of rage rap. They expertly translate teenage angst through sonic chaos. Songs like ‘angels in camo’ and ‘Star people’ can drive 808s to maximum output, coating the songs in angsty distortion that you don’t just hear – you feel. ‘Star people’ can simultaneously end in a solemn, shoegaze-y guitar solo narrated by a heartbroken Jane Remover. 

Meanwhile, songs like ‘Psychoboost’ and ‘Dancing with your eyes closed’ can be full-on EDM. Songs like ‘Professional Vengeance’, an indie rock song about a nasty breakup that sonically concludes in a hardstyle explosion, can take up space on the very same track list as rage songs.  Jane operates from a musical integrity that helps them to produce an innovative, liberated body of work. 

Jane, themself, emphasized the vulnerability of this record, stating in the very same Teen Vogue interview, “I feel like this album is brutally honest, to the point like sometimes it’s a little uncomfortable.” Beyond the title of this record, I felt this visceral openness the most on ‘Dark night castle’. Jane sings on this record in this disconnected manner. Across the entire song, they sound just 2 words from breaking down into tears. In the song, they sing about the pain and isolation of hyper-awareness. It’s a song about the pain of change. The way Jane approaches the whiplash of realization as we grow older and pick up new habits was my favorite songwriting showcase on this album. 

Overall, this was a very interesting record. Packed full of Sonic the Hedgehog samples and boundary-pushing melodies, I found the journey I took with it rewarding to my overall music palette, and I hope it does the same for you.

My favorite song by far is ‘angels in camo’. Melodic and enraged, the song has already found its way to my Top 10 songs of 2025. 

Jane Remover is one of the most interesting music acts out right now. I highly recommend this album along with their other work to find what works for you and what doesn’t. You will find something. 

Jane Remover is slated to open for American hardcore punk band TURNSTILE’s ‘NEVER ENOUGH’ tour that begins in September.
