Raz Powers BRUTAX’s “All That Can Happen” Into a Drunken Spiral of Love, Doubt, and Rhythm

There’s a point in every almost-relationship where things stop making sense. You’re not together, you’re not done, and somehow that middle space hits harder than either option. “All That Can Happen” lives exactly there and refuses to resolve it for you.


BRUTAX leans into that emotional limbo without romanticizing it. The track feels slightly off-balance from the start, like it’s been drinking on the same thoughts for too long. And that’s where Raz steps in and quietly carries the entire thing on his back.


The drums are the anchor. Not flashy, not overplayed, just locked in with a groove that feels human. There’s weight in every hit. You can hear the years in it. Raz doesn’t just keep time, he shapes the tension. When the song starts drifting emotionally, the rhythm pulls it back just enough to keep you inside it.


Sonically, it sits in that alternative pop-rock space, but it doesn’t feel generic. There’s a looseness to the arrangement that works in its favor. The instrumentation breathes. Nothing feels forced or overpolished, which is exactly what this kind of song needs. It’s about feeling unstable, not perfect.


Vocally, there’s this intoxicated honesty that cuts through. Not in a dramatic, over-sung way. More like someone thinking out loud and realizing halfway through that they don’t actually have answers. That hesitation, that doubt, that constant second-guessing is baked into the delivery.


And that’s what makes this track land. It doesn’t pretend love is clean or decisive. It’s messy. It’s confusing. Sometimes you stay when you shouldn’t. Sometimes you leave when you don’t want to. This song doesn’t pick a side. It just sits in the chaos and lets you deal with it.

A lot of music tries to give you closure. This doesn’t. It gives you a mirror.
