The track is from the celebrated artist’s upcoming debut EP Obsessions
On her powerful and emotionally stirring new single ‘Rather Kill My Feelings’, Flora Summers continues to demonstrate the lasting impression and imprint that her thoughtful sound leaves on you, crafting one of her most intimate and stripped-back releases to date to rousing effect.
The single explores the ways that the artist manages to dodge and avoid deep emotional feelings, and how worryingly adept that she has managed to get at doing it successfully. The vulnerable track opens up on her penchant for suffocating and killing any potential relationships before they get the chance to bloom, making for a narrative that feels heart-breaking and will feel all too resonating and familiar for some listeners. The gorgeous tone of the sound and vocals and the engrossing, candid lyrics make for an enchanting listening experience, and serves as another perfect precursor to Flora Summers’ upcoming debut EP Obsessions.
“The song is written like a snapshot with too little and too much emotion all at once. I’ve always seen my parents as a very happy couple, but I’ve never believed I’ll ever find something like they have. Like I wouldn’t have the personality required for it,” shares Summers.
