Mel Denisse dazzles with “Like a Fiend”

Mel Denisse is a Turkish/American singer-songwriter, producer and artist who released her second single “Like a Fiend”. The dazzling alternative pop rock masterpiece catapults Mel Denisse into the spotlight as an artist to watch.

“Like a Fiend” is a rhythm-driven and textural musical gem balancing grit and gloss. The result is a sound that feels both calculated and chaotic—a reflection of the song’s meaning that captures the push‑pull in a creature split between two selves, flipping from fragile confession to manic euphoria in a heartbeat. Mel’s vocals are commanding, enticing and alluring. “Like a Fiend” blends grunge-laced guitars, trip-hop rhythms, and electronic flourishes with unapologetic pop instincts. The song doesn’t just make itself heard—it demands your attention.

Mel Denisse has collaborated with Carlos de la Garza (Paramore, Best Coast), Ken Andrews (Paramore, M83) , Micah Tawlks (Hayley Williams, Noah Kahan, Ashe), and longtime collaborator/producer Stephen Laurenson. She shares, “If the song makes you feel a gentle gut-punch–that’s the point,” she says. “I’m slipping mirrors into the track so you have to sit with whatever stares back.”
