SPELLLING's Portrait of My Heart showcases an eclectic mix of genres, blending nü-metalcore, pop-punk, and orchestral goth influences. Chrystia Cabral explores profound themes of love, loss, anxiety, and alienation. Her album transitions from breakup narratives to new beginnings, inviting listeners to project their own experiences onto her work. With a mystic persona that complements her unique sound, Cabral articulates feelings of otherness and belonging through her lyrics, making her music relatable across generations and experiences.
"It's unreal, what the heart can hold," she sings on "Waterfall." The music encapsulates powerful emotions such as love, loss, and intimacy that shape our experiences.
These romantic-outsider yarns fit nicely with Cabral's persona as a modern-day mystic, drunk on her own strangeness. The title track expresses essential feelings of alienation.
