SWEET PILL release new single ‘Slow Burn’

Sweet Pill share their driving new single, ‘Slow Burn,’  from their forthcoming new album Still There’s A Glow.

Out now alongside an OD Blank-directed video, the song sees singer Zayna Youssef wrestling with  anxiety and overthinking. “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.”
