Jane Remover is an artist like no other. They’ve dabbled in various genres, seemingly polar opposites, like rage beats to shoegaze-poprock. Yet, Remover always finds a way to make it their ‘sound.’ Throughout the years, fans have been able to see their sound grow, evolve and change, so let’s start at the very beginning.
Soundcloud is a well-known platform where artists are allowed to publish any kind of their audio work; music being the most prominent. Remover has released a lot of their work there, from their beginning songs to a surprise release back in August called “Indie rock.” They have a side project called “Leroy” where they upload most of their EDM projects called “Daria-core”.
They have pioneered the digicore sub-genre scene, “Daria-core”, that mixes loud supersaws with ear-shattering drums, unique sound effects and pop-culture memes. In a similar vein, Remover has DJ sets available on Soundcloud from when they were a resident on NTS Radio. Remover’s Leroy persona is all about being obnoxiously loud, to the point where you can’t even think. Their most iconic work has to be “…during pride month?”, opening with a controversial quote from Azealia Banks, Overwatch voicelines and a remix of Latto’s “B*tch From Da Souf”, all the while the bass, drums and synths scream in your ears. The brashness of their Leroy releases has been a permanent staple in hyperpop and digicore.
Remover was eventually signed to deadAir, a label that features various alternative artists, and has released three albums with them. In 2021, they released their hyperpop-esque album “Frailty,” which consists of lots of distortion and lots of screaming with a constant motif throughout the album. The song mimics a video game soundtrack, one like Toby Fox’s “Undertale,” with their songs “How to Lie” having a similar distorted piano in Fox’s works and “Let’s Go Home” having a childish intro that morphs into a bouncy dance beat. If you ever want a grungy, teenage rock anthem, “Your Clothes” is the perfect song for that. “Movie for Guys” starts with the catchy electronic beginning, but then sounds like it hints at their 2023 release “Census Designated,” as it ends with a sappy outro with a guitar.
“Census Designated” is their sophomore album, showing an even more vulnerable side of Remover’s. It was at this time that Remover had come out as a trans woman, officially being Jane Remover. The album has elements of shoegaze and rock mixed with the loudness of their earlier works, where a sense of dread and longing rings through each song. The first song they wrote for the album, “Lips,” is a soft, siren song unraveling into a loud screech, with the phrase “You want crazy, I’ll give you insane” permeating. “Fling” is a perfectly whiny song about a guy giving conflicting signs, yet they “Let it hurt to say he’s mine.” The entirety of this album has a beautiful balance between serenity and intensity; those two forces carry so much emotion, and when combined, add a deeper level to the album.
Another one of Remover’s side projects is “venturing,” a made-up rock band created by Remover. “Arizona” is a melodic indie-rock EP, and although it is only eight minutes long, it has four catchy, impactful songs. Earlier this year, in February, they released the LP “Ghostholding,” where they expanded on this catchy rock melody. Electric guitars and hypnotic lyrics make each song have a certain ‘groove’: you can tell on this album that Remover has gotten more confident with their voice as they hold strong, moody vocals. “Dead Forever” has loud drums with an even louder guitar as they combine and make a numbing haze, but the softer, intimate moments of the song drop the craziness, and it’s just Remover with their guitar. Remover taps into a country-esque melody as they ask, “Do you believe in me?’ on “Believe,” of course, with a distorted electric guitar.
Their recent album “Revengeseekerz” was released back in April this year, and it feels like Remover has come full circle in their career. The rage-hyperpop album has a voice like no other, where it combines elements from their past works and makes them anew. “Fadeoutz” samples the Fortnite ping song, mimicking the silliness from their Daria-core days. The song has the iconic electric guitar with screeching sounds, as it develops into a screaming outro, as all the elements merge into the finale. Remover begins “Star people” by rapping over a loud bass and sound effects, asking, “Is you my enemy or my bestie?” A deep bass guitar takes control of the song as Remover sings out, asking, “What you think that you put on this Earth for?” Switching to a more “Frailty” vibe, “Professional Vengeance” sounds like it would fit on a video game soundtrack, yet still carries that rage feeling from the album it’s on.
Their song “Dancing with your eyes closed” off “Revengeseekerz” is their most-streamed song, sitting at 7.1 million streams on Spotify as of October 2025. This song garnered a lot of their most recent fans, rightfully so. It starts with a soft, airy melody as it glitches into a bouncy, rave beat. Their digicore roots shine in this song, where, after the song’s first hype chorus, it breaks down into the album’s signature sound. The song is pure fun.
2025 most definitely has been Remover’s year; they’ve released so many projects to “Ghostholding” to “Revengeseekerz” to the now deleted “Indie-rock,” alongside numerous singles and collaborations. Tune into Remover and get the hype.
