Faker's latest release, “Nightmare's Coming Back” is part of frontman Nathan Hudson's comeback after fifteen years, with the emotional weight of someone stepping back into the unknown. The song’s themes of facing inertia, trying love, risking survival, and finally emerging through singing give the comeback a sense of earned perspective. Some problems won’t go away, and you can’t do anything about them, but there’s resilience in not letting them trap you. Faker doesn’t seem to want to run from the past, but to face it.
