PARK CITY by JVNEBVG kicks off with a creative intro that throws listeners back to the 90s, with a cassette player’s click setting the tone for the gritty ride ahead. This nostalgic touch feels intentional, signaling to the listener that JVNEBVG is an artist who plays with eras and sounds. By the time Track 2: BONESHAKER rolls in, you’re hit with that raw Trap Metal and Punk Rap fusion, a sound that JVNEBVG delivers effortlessly. It’s aggressive but calculated, pushing that rebellious energy, and some subtle Cyberpunk vibes, though the artist’s branding pulls more from the grunge scene. What really stands out is the blend of genres in this project. Track 3 and 4 are reminiscent of breakbeat and rave, taking cues from the likes of The Prodigy and Aphex Twin, but JVNEBVG keeps things rooted in Punk Rap, giving a futuristic edge to the grimey, bass-heavy beats. The collaboration on Track 4: I’m Not The One with Ak3k is a definite high point. Ak3k’s feature adds a dynamic layer, and if you’re familiar with his work, you’ll find his voice meshes perfectly with JVNEBVG’s rebellious grit. The next shift happens in Track 5, which pulls back into a hip-hop and rap lane with a feature from Beamon. This switch in tempo and vibe is refreshing, proving that JVNEBVG isn’t one-dimensional. He’s fluid, willing to jump genres while still making the track feel like it fits into the overall project. The title track PARK CITY really encapsulates JVNEBVG’s core sound. It’s the pinnacle of Trap Metal and Scream Rap with layers of harsh vocal texture and heavy instrumentation. Here, JVNEBVG’s voice feels like a weapon, cutting through the beat with purpose. The depth and texture in his vocal delivery are undeniable and are a true testament to his versatility as an artist. Even though Trap Metal can often be associated with chaotic screaming, JVNEBVG brings technique and intentionality to every shout and growl, showing he’s more than just noise—he’s creating something visceral.
After the intensity of PARK CITY, the album takes a breath with an interlude, and the mood shifts into a softer space. The next few tracks offer a more intimate side of JVNEBVG, showcasing that he’s not all about aggression. There’s a vulnerability that comes through, a shift in energy that feels natural, not forced. It’s here you see the creative depth—he’s not just one lane. The album wraps up with DISTORTED, a bass-heavy collaboration with ARSX that brings back the raw, darker edge. The final track feels like a perfect bookend to the project, tying off the chaos with a sense of resolution. There’s no filler here—each song is crafted with purpose and intention. What really shines through is the audio engineering. Every beat, every vocal layer, every distorted sound is meticulously placed. This isn’t a DIY basement tape thrown together for shock value. JVNEBVG is producing art—an experience that feels both polished and raw. You can tell he cares about the sonic quality as much as the message, and it shows throughout.
Overall, PARK CITY is a well-balanced project that blends nostalgia with innovation. JVNEBVG is a diverse, creative force, balancing Trap Metal, Punk Rap, and hip-hop with gritty lyricism and deep introspection. The album delivers something for everyone, from aggressive headbangers to deeper, moodier tracks. Each song stands on its own but contributes to the larger narrative, and his collaborations with Ak3k and ARSX elevate the overall vibe. This is more than just an album—it’s a statement. I give PARK CITY a perfect 10/10. Every track is unique, but the overall vibe feels cohesive, making this a standout project in today’s underground scene. If you’re a fan of Trap Metal, Punk Rap, or even a curious listener looking for something with depth and grit, PARK CITY is worth every second. Be sure to check it out!
