What’s this? New music from Sweden’s Tove Styrke – she’s out with her latest single ‘Hardcore’.
What’s it like? Veering between lo-fi and distortion, and with Tove really – like, REALLY – going for it on the vocals in parts, makes this an unmissable listen. It’s a strange song. But it’s a strong song!
What does Tove say? “‘Hardcore’ is one of the sickest songs on the album. It’s about sex. I wanted to make the whole track sound swaying like when you’re completely gone in another person. That’s why we made the beat slow down and speed up again. I have to say that Elvira did an incredible job with this whole sound, the production is crazy.”
Written by? Tove herself, along with Elvira Anderfjärd and Jakob Jerlström.
More from Tove? Her album ‘HARD’ comes out on June 3rd.
