Listen HERE.
Speaking about the track Eyelar says: “I wrote terrible love when I suddenly realised I was in a bad situation I needed to get out. Quite soon after, this realisation the song was made, so it felt really cathartic and important to release all my anger and frustrations. I needed to write it to move on. Musically, I wanted a riff that was loud, but also something that could echo my Iranian heritage.”
The release follows Eyelars’ debut EP ‘Mistakes & Contradictions’ which featured singles including ‘Obsessed with Your Ex’, ‘Man Like Her’. and ‘Care Like You’. The EP garnered key tastemaker support from Spindle, NME Pop Justice, and Hunger as well as significant plays across BBC Radio 1’s Future Pop with Mollie King.
