Sounds | Sweet Pill - Slow Burn

Tweeëenhalve minuut claustrofobische, punky hardcore. Meer heeft Sweet Pills frontvrouw niet nodig om haar gevoelens van angst en opgejaagde gedachten op ons over te brengen als een welgemikte dzjoef op onze muil.

Slow Burn is wel enorm verschillend van de eerder gereleaste videos Glow en No Control, wat ons dan weer het beste doet vermoeden voor hun aankomende album Still There's a Glow dat op 13 maart verschijnt via Hopeless Records.

Singer Zayna Youssef about the song:

“I kept seeing a cigarette and how every slow drag fills you up with literal death, but the exhale feels so good–the irony of how something that feels good is so bad for you. There are countless things in my life I take a deeeep, slow drag from that really don’t benefit me, these habits have a short term satisfaction but the long term effect can be just one big slowburn,” she explains. “The song and video explore anxiety disguised as cameras and their constant surveillance. A snapshot into the mind of someone who overthinks to the point of ‘seeing things’ that may not even be there. Whether I am battling confidence or bad habits, overthinking can be so habitual. It kind of traps you in this circular purgatory which you find me running in and out of.”
