What’s this? The brand new single from Swedish trio RABBII. It’s called ‘Left For Dead’ and it’s magnificent.
How so? A stunner of a low-key ballad set to a morbid beat sequence. And with an eerily sad vocal over to the top.
What do they say about it? “We wanted to write a song about the first time you see your ex a while after you broke up. And you realise he’s happier than ever. And you’re nothing but a zombie, needing someone new to feed on not to die. The feeling when you kind of self-destruct willingly. We wanted a song that was really unsexy. When you see yourself as a victim, although really you’re not. That pathetic part of yourself I think everyone has. This song is the world’s smallest violin, playing a sad tune just for you“.
More from this marvellous trio? We still can’t get enough of ‘Majestic‘ which was released this very week last year. And if you want more sadness from them, well – there’s ‘Sadness‘.
You can find ‘Left For Dead’ on our Best New Synthpop playlist.
