November 8, 2024, a week ago
Theatrical rock artist Kore Rozzik's return to the music scene is here with the electrifying new single and music video "The Dollar"; a gripping exploration of the complexities of greed, temptation and manipulation in an unfortunate material and politically charged society.
This latest release, recorded by Grammy-nominated engineer Dan Malsch (Ghost, Avenged Sevenfold), is an unabashed commentary on society's obsession with money, layered with Rozzik’s signature rock-infused style and punchy lyrics. "The Dollar" showcases Kore's evolution as an artist, delivering an irresistible fusion of hard-hitting riffs and mesmerizing melodies. With lines that resonate with urgency and authenticity, Kore Rozzik demonstrates the frustration of political division, the chase for status and the loss of innocence.
The music video, directed by Jim Foster (Red13), was shot in a vintage abandoned bank in Pittsburgh, adding a unique aesthetic that complements the song's themes. Local talent serves as the outcast group in question, creating a powerful visual narrative that juxtaposes scenes of opulence with moments of stark reality, showcasing Kore's magnetic stage presence.
The visuals are complemented by stunning cinematography and dynamic editing that mirror the song's pulsating energy. "I wanted to create something that resonates with everyone, whether you’re chasing dreams or grappling with the current difficulties we are facing in this current economic / political climate,” said Kore Rozzik. "This song is my personal take on the obsession with 'The Dollar' and what we’re willing to sacrifice to obtain it."
Kore Rozzik, who previously served as the support act for KISS legend Ace Frehley for nearly two years, is now embarking on an ambitious new concept: The Dead Society.
This dystopian universe positions Kore as the Anti-Hero Savior, a character that embodies the struggle against societal norms and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery in a world controlled by out of touch authorities .
