Rocket goes after the friendship that went bad in "Take Your Aim"


Los Angeles rock band Rocket turns the frustration, overthinking, and slow collapse of a one-sided friendship into their new track, "Take Your Aim." The song captures mixed feelings when you feel taken for granted or misunderstood, but you can't seem to confront the person doing it. Rocket features Alithea Tuttle on vocals and bass, Baron Rinzler on guitar, Cooper Ladomade on drums, and Desi Scaglione on guitar.

"Take Your Aim" is about a friendship that slowly goes out of balance, where one person always gives more than they receive. Over time, that imbalance creates frustration that goes largely unexpressed, and the relationship sours. The lyrics explore relationship dynamics and the feeling of being trapped by somebody else's expectations. The other person's language sets the terms, and disagreement leaves little room for change.

Rocket's "Take Your Aim" finds its place in a space of relatable emotion, with a subject matter that's hard to communicate, the moment you realize a friendship has gone bad, and the continual work of addressing what's wrong. "Take Your Aim" captures the irritation of watching a once-essential friendship curdle, with a guitar-led band lineup and a laser-focused theme to prove it. Rocket channels that unresolved tension into a no-frills rock tune about resentment, self-doubt, and ultimately facing the pressure head-on.
