White Reaper faced major changes after band members left following their 2023 record Asking For A Ride. The group lost their rhythm section but continued making music without missing a beat. Their latest track Honestly serves as the first release from their upcoming album Only Slightly Empty. Singer and guitar player Tony Esposito wrote songs that helped him work through personal struggles. The new material reflects his attempts to handle difficult emotions he kept private.

Esposito created Honestly as a way to examine his problems with avoiding confrontation. The song features lyrics that contradict each other between different sections. He admits the verses and choruses send completely different messages to listeners. The approach mirrors how people sometimes act brave when talking about others but become quiet during face-to-face meetings. This writing style helped him explore his conflicted feelings about difficult conversations.

The band member changes created tension that affected Esposito's creative process. He found himself trying to avoid conflict even when writing new songs. Eventually he realized music should bring joy and decided to focus on creating excellent tracks. The power pop sound of Honestly features catchy guitar parts and memorable melodies. Fans can hear the track before the full album arrives September 26 through Blue Grape Music.
