Formidable South London auteur Heartworms shares her foreboding new single ‘Extraordinary Wings’, taken from her upcoming highly anticipated debut album Glutton For Punishment – out February 7 on Speedy Wunderground. Arriving just days after her NME The Cover feature, ‘Extraordinary Wings’ is accompanied by a striking video directed by Heartworms’ frequent collaborator Gilbert Trejo.
Following October’s ‘Warplane’, ‘Extraordinary Wings’ pays homage to Heartworms’ love of aircraft, and the chanted refrain “I don’t wish murder / Cause I got no right” becomes a haunting hook, somewhere between a rallying cry and an appeal for peace. Beyond this, she leaves the listener to work out their own feelings, or to interpret hers as they please, sharing: “I don’t have the time of day to tell you what you want to hear.”
I truly love this new track! Extraordinary!
