My Brightest Diamond, the spellbinding musical project of multi-instrumentalist Shara Nova, shares the scorching and empowered title track from her upcoming album Fight The Real Terror, out this Friday, September 13 via Western Vinyl.

The ascendant opening track sets the stage and raises the stakes with bracing directness – written mere hours after the news broke of Sinead O’Connor’s passing, the song opens with Nova mournfully recounting that “on the day she died, a storm came in / it cut down the trees with a force, and the lights went out.”

As Nova’s solo distorted guitar swells into a storm, her voice ascends into a singular, encapsulating call to action – “fight the real terror.” It’s a song that not only honors and channels the legacy of an artist as singular and powerful as Sinead O’Connor, but flips the urgency back to the listener, resolving with the direct interrogation “who’s going to stand with me shoulder to shoulder to take down another untouchable power?”
