ABOUT THE SONG:
If Avril Lavigne were debuting in 2025, it would probably sound a lot like Kerrigan Barry’s “Obitchuary,” it’s perfectly tongue-in-cheek, dripping with just the right mix of 2000s nostalgia and a fearless, modern edge. Kerrigan is showing that she isn’t afraid to make a scene, in fact, she thrives on it.
The track wastes no time, opening with a biting first verse: “My toxic trait is I start fights, So I can call your bluff, ‘Cause when we hit rock bottom, Only place for it to go is up.”
Then comes a chorus only someone with Kerrigan’s unapologetic confidence could deliver, crashing in loud and defiant: “I’d eat a man alive, Before I’d ever meet his mother, Couldn’t get in to heaven, Even if the devil dared me, Bet they’ll say I’m a bitch, When they read my obituary.”
It’s a middle finger to being liked. Because let’s face it, you’ll never please everybody. And if she comes off like a bitch? So what. That’s power.
The result is an adrenaline-fueled anthem that demands head banging, screaming along, and hitting replay. Raw, authentic, and impossible to ignore, “Obitchuary” isn’t just a song, it’s a statement. And Kerrigan Barry is about to carve her name deep into the alt-rock scene.
