New Single Release: DellaXOZ “come again”
31 January 2024
Produced by the grammy-nominated Maths Time Joy and written by the talented Jennifer Irabor, the track is more than just a musical composition; it stands as a sonic manifesto of empowerment and defiance.
As a multifaceted artist, SPIDER has been recognised as a thrilling and refreshingly left-field voice in pop, as noted by The Observer. Her artistic journey is marked by a fearless exploration of unconventional themes and an unapologetic approach to storytelling. “daisy chains” exemplifies her commitment to pushing the boundaries of pop music, offering a cathartic anthem that resonates with authenticity.
The collaboration with Maths Time Joy, known for his dynamic and genre-defying production style, elevates “daisy chains” to new sonic heights. The marriage of SPIDER’s distinctive vocals with Joy’s innovative production results in a track that not only challenges the status quo but also sets a new standard for contemporary pop.
The track itself is a cathartic anthem, blending scuzzy guitars with a massive chorus, and explores the theme of reclaiming agency in the face of discomfort. Jennifer Irabor’s lyrical prowess shines through in the song’s exploration of the “Unholy Trinity of Young Adulthood,” touching on themes of sex and objectification against a visual backdrop that is both evocative and thought-provoking.
SPIDER’s lyrical directness is matched by the expansive musicality of the track, creating a visceral experience that reflects her journey from the Dublin suburbs to the vibrant music scene of London. Her eight-legged alias, drawn from African spirituality, symbolises strong feminine energy and the belief in weaving one’s own destiny. With a background marked by defiance against restrictions and an unapologetic attitude, SPIDER’s music is a testament to her wit, empathy, and occasional rage.
Additionally, the lyrics of the single reveal a powerful narrative, addressing uncomfortable experiences and the refusal to conform. The chorus, with its forceful lines like “Hold the applause, Hold the curtain, it’s not over,” underscores a determination to stand tall and assert control over your own narrative. SPIDER’s voice resonates with authenticity, proving to be a refreshing perspective in the pop landscape.
As SPIDER gears up for her first headline show at London’s Camden Assembly on March 20th and the release of her EP, “an object of desire,” the anticipation for more from this rising star is palpable. “daisy chains” is not just a song; it’s a fearless manifesto that invites listeners into SPIDER’s vivid world of unapologetic self-expression and resilience.
