Every time Australia’s own shock rocker Kim Drac releases something new, the alt scene immediately jolts awake like someone just plugged it into a lightning socket. And his new single In Threes is exactly that kind of electric shock. It is heavy, vicious, catchy and crafted with that deliciously twisted theatrical flair he’s known for.
Kim Drac is one of those artists who refuses to be predictable. He blends horror, metal, alt-pop, electronics and pure chaotic charisma into something that shouldn’t work but absolutely does. And In Threes might be his strongest release yet. It punches. It growls. It hypnotises. It drags you willingly into the dark and makes you enjoy every moment.
I listened to this track once and immediately went back for a second and third round. It’s addictive in that “I’m unwell but vibing” way.
Exactly what shock rock should be.
Why “In Threes” Hits With So Much Power
The first thing you notice about Kim Drac In Threes is the production quality. It is thick. Clean. Intense. The guitars hit with weight. The drums slap with authority. The bass growls underneath everything like a lurking creature.
Then the vocals come in.
Aggressive.
Sharp.
Full of personality.
Kim Drac has a very distinct vocal identity. It’s gritty with a theatrical edge, like a demon sneering onstage. In Threes uses that texture to perfection. He jumps between snarling lows, sharper alt-rock tones, and rhythmic chant-like lines that make the song feel ritualistic.
And that chorus?
It sticks to your brain like glue.
Heavy but catchy.
Dark but weirdly fun.
Exactly the kind of balance shock rock thrives on.
This track is made for live shows. You can already imagine crowds losing their minds, chanting along, lights flashing red, everyone sweating, screaming, and pretending not to be possessed.
The Style and Atmosphere Behind “In Threes”
Kim Drac has always had a strong aesthetic, and this track leans into it beautifully. The atmosphere of In Threes feels like a haunted carnival mixed with a metal rave. There are gritty electronic layers underneath the heavy guitars. Little sound effects that feel like creaking floors or shadows moving. It keeps your brain on edge in the best way.
The rhythm is fast and tight. The chorus opens up the space, then the verses slam you back into chaos. The pacing feels intentional. It’s structured like a horror short film. Tension, release, tension, release.
The lyrics hint at themes of repetition, madness, and the idea of things happening “in threes.” There’s a psychological undertone here that fits his artistic persona perfectly. Chaos, but intelligent chaos. Darkness, but with purpose.
Kim Drac is one of the few Australian alt artists who understands that shock rock isn’t just about noise or makeup. It’s about storytelling through sound. And this track tells a story.
The Evolution of Kim Drac’s Sound
Kim Drac’s earlier releases already showed promise, but In Threes feels like a level up. The songwriting is sharper. The sound is tighter. The production is polished but still filthy. And the vocal performance has a confidence that can only come from an artist fully stepping into their identity.
This track positions him firmly within modern shock rock. It sits comfortably next to artists like Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie, Motionless in White, Ghost, and even some heavier alt-pop performers like Jazmin Bean or WZRD BLD collaborators.
But he doesn’t sound like a copy.
He sounds like Kim Drac.
And that identity is loud.

This is the kind of track that shows depth, identity and commitment to the craft. Heavy songs are easy to make. Heavy songs with personality are not. Kim Drac managed both.
