Today, Uma Bloo — the project of Chicago musician Molly Madden — shares "Marguerite's Novels," the second single off their forthcoming album, Don't Drive Into the Smoke, due March 23, 2022 via Earth Libraries.
Speaking on the track, bassist Luke Blanco wrote: “It may just be the name, but it is absolutely not a misnomer. This song is the sonic equivalent of finding a dusty book, unearthing it for the first time in 30 years. You used to love this book and fall into a romantic sense of nostalgia upon reading the opening paragraph. The verses and their staccato instrumentation are reminiscent of a plucked string section, conjuring up images of Victorian times, a time where you could only read the novel by candlelight. The final outro of the song, the most passionate and intense affair on the album, strikes a tear as it falls onto the yellowing pages."
"The death of anything (a body, a relationship, a career, a core belief, etc) is nothing to fear," he continued. "Death isn’t something we fully understand, but at least within the realm of the living endings aren’t anything but a catalyst for transformation." |
