Bellproof by Lockerette

Alright, so you know how sometimes the school day just hits different? Like, one minute you’re just trying not to trip in the hallway, and the next, it feels like everything — the bell, your locker, even that squeaky intercom — is trying to tell you something huge about who you’re supposed to be. That’s kind of what we tried to bottle up with *Bellproof*. We wanted to take all that messy, frantic energy of being a teenager and turn it into something that felt… bigger. What if those everyday moments weren't just background noise, but actual chapters in your own epic story?

This whole album is our way of making the school day a shimmering, messed-up cosmos, where every single locker is its own little chapel, and every footstep in the hall is like a drumbeat asking what we’re even doing here and who we’re becoming. It’s a journey, honestly. We kick off with those whispered doubts you scratch into your notebook margins, those brave little pledges you make to yourself before homeroom even starts. Then it gets louder, building into this shout-along conviction that pulses with crunchy guitars and handclap beats that feel exactly like your heart refusing to stay small. We’re talking crush notes, group texts, those desperate mirror pep talks – we turned them into these call-and-response anthems.

Musically, we absolutely went for it. The guitars crunch like stepping on a dropped pencil case, those sticky choruses get stuck in your head for days, and we threw in gang-vocal sparkles and this glittery synth haze that makes even the deepest questions feel like pep rally fireworks instead of dread. You’ll hear locker-banged percussion, a few accidental giggles we left in because they just felt right, and even some voice cracks that hit harder than any perfect take ever could. We wanted it to sound honest, like us.

This record moves from feeling out what the intercom oracle is whispering, to marking those secret best-friend pacts that mean everything when the gossip hits. Yeah, and we even went into detention—turning that empty room into a quiet spot to own your mess, because sometimes you just need to admit it without flinching. It’s all about finding purpose in the ordinary chaos. The whole thing builds to that moment when you’re just done waiting for someone else to give you answers, you know? That’s where "Text me back, universe" comes in, like a desperate group text to everything, answered by this fierce declaration: "If the bell won’t save me, I’ll save me." We put that line in there because it’s exactly what we all need to hear – a permission slip to save yourself. It’s sticky, it’s defiant, and it’s a promise.

By the time you get to the end, on those late bus rides home, watching the streetlights smear past, it’s about settling into who you are, tired but changed. It’s about that quiet strength after the battle, making those final secret promises to yourself. *Bellproof* is for anyone who’s ever stared at the clock, waiting for the bell, and realized the real story was happening all along in the messy notebooks and midnight hearts. It's our take on how you find your own anthem after the last class, and honestly, we think that's a story worth screaming about.

We're that locker-room karaoke mess you can't get outta your head. Four BFFs turning homework stress and cafeteria drama into bubblegum riffs and detention-worthy anthems. Grab your glitter pens—we're about to soundtrack your teenage rebellion! 💖🎸✨
