We recently had the phenomenal opportunity to check out the sonically perfect new single, “Save Me” , from Portuguese Alt Rock Trio, Treewax. You can listen to “Save Me” Here You can also check out the video for “Save Me” below.

As soon as we heard the first note of “Save Me” from Portuguese alt rock trio Treewax, we were instantly mesmerized. The sound and vibe on “Save Me” from Treewax, is next level alt-rock perfection.

“Save Me” , dives into the complexities of love, loss, and the desire for redemption.

The track is the latest to be taken from Portuguese shoegaze/post-metal band ICOSANDRIA and alt-rock trio TREEWAX’s forthcoming split EP, Void Intention, set for release 18th April 2025—a dynamic and emotionally charged collection of tracks that traverses one band’s immersive atmospheres and the other’s raw intensity with confidence.

An impressive new offering from the three piece, ‘Save Me’ brings raw and intense emotions to the forefront, with lyrics that should resonate deeply with anyone who has experienced the highs and lows of love. Atmospheric instrumentation and an abrasive vocal performance create a sonic landscape that perfectly complements the emotional weight of the song—with nods to their influences Weezer, Nirvana, and Ozma—and the rousing bridge in particular highlighting the band’s growth in terms of songwriting.

Commenting on the track, frontman Gonçalo Ferreira said: “‘Save Me’ is about feeling lost, about uncertain days, about the ‘last cry’ before everything might fade away, but while there’s still hope.”

Lead single ‘Chronophobia’ by ICOSANDRIA was released earlier this year, with underground tastemakers Noizze premiering the official video.

Showcasing a unique blend of alternative rock, grunge, shoegaze, and post-rock influences that will resonate deeply with fans of those genres and beyond, Treewax and Icosandria may hail from opposite ends of the alternative spectrum, but together they’ve created a thrilling shared sonic journey. 

Consisting of Gonçalo Ferreira (guitar and vocals), Gustavo Ribeiro (bass), and Francisco Amado (drums), each member of Treewax brings their own unique influences from the worlds of alternative rock, grunge, punk and pop-rock to the table, making the perfect mix for high-energy songs that encourage listeners not only to hear them, but to live them.

Hop in the driver’s seat and crank it to 100. “Save Me”, from Treewax is an absolute alt-rock gem.
