spiracle - flowerface
larger photo not mine
smaller photo by @kodavsky on inst.
I want the teeth that you lost as a child
That you hide in a box under your pillow
I want your quiet, your screaming and thrashing
The salt on your lips and the hands that God gave you
And I want your violence, your silent sedation
Your moon eyes, your telescope, morbid fixation
And I want your pyro, your born-again virgin
Your hands on my insides, your fingertips crawling
And I want your Jesus, your suicide mission
Your lips on the microphone, soft disposition
And I want your parties, the shark in your water
The scrapes on your knees and the blood that spills over
And I want your zeroes, your polluted marrow
The sweat on your palms and your surveillance shadow
I want your secrets, your clementine fields
The ropes that you climb up, the parts that won't heal
I want your safe word, your passive resistance
The sickness you foster, your favorite addictions
And I want your nightmares, the ghost in your doorway
Your paralyzed sleep and your-
I want you, butterfly, I want you, sailor
I am your lover and I am your jailor.

I want the parts of you that you only show To the corner of your bathroom mirror I want the parts of your hand grenade heart That beat slowly with anger and fear I want the parts of you that you only show To the birds outside your bedroom window I want the teeth that you lost as a child That you hide in a box under your pillow I want your quiet, your screaming and thrashing The salt on your lips and the hands that god gave you And I want your violence, your silent sedation Your moon eyes, your telescope, morbid fixation And I want your pyro, your born-again virgin Your hands on my insides, your fingertips crawling in I want your Jesus, your suicide mission Your lips on the microphone, soft disposition And I want your parties, the shark in your water The scrapes on your knees and the blood that spills over And I want your zeroes, your polluted marrow The sweat on your palms and the surveillance shadow I want your secrets, your clementine fields The ropes that you climb up, the parts that donā€™t heal I want your safe word, your passive resistance The sickness you foster, your favourite addictions I want your nightmares, the ghost in your doorway Your paralyzed sleep and your I want you, butterfly, I want you sailor I am your lover and I am your jailor

Bonus for today because I'm too lazy to schedule it.
I love songs that every time you listen to it you learn something else. This song was only released only 2 days ago but I only just now got to listen to it and I've been listening on repeat for maybe half an hour because there is just so much to process and so many little moments that I love and it's just such a fascinating song and I have a lot of feelings and emotions. "I burn light just for the soft light on your face" "all the flowers are digital in the cemetery screen" "I ran every light just to see if your grave still had room for me" "I love you like I love being hungry, it feels good to want things" like???? I have too many things to process about this song and a lot of emotions from it

Flower Face Delivers a Song For the Season With ā€œPisces Moonā€ [Q&A]
Tumblr media
Flower Face is an artist who has battled life, built up scar tissue and sings the sinews of those skin chords in a melancholic way few artists can, nor even attempt. Wanting to hear more about her latest single, as well as grab a playlist of her current favorites, we reached out to this emotionally immersive artist to gain further insight into her craft.
Ones to Watch: Who is Flower Face? Ā 
Flower Face: Still figuring that one outā€¦Ā 
What is ā€œPisces Moonā€ all about?Ā 
ā€œPisces Moonā€ is about finding the balance between being true to your heart and giving up your dignity - difficult to draw that line when youā€™re in love. I tend to veer towards losing my pride and laying it all at someoneā€™s feet. Thereā€™s something beautiful about thatā€¦ but you also have to figure out how to pick yourself up afterward.
The song has such an earnest, nuanced feel, howā€™d you settle on composition?
I wanted this to be a classic Flower Face power ballad. Back when I was doing all my own production, in my bedroom on GarageBand, I would build up these huge instrumentals, just using a keyboard soundbank. Now that I was in a real studio, it was possible to take that idea to the next level. Having real strings was a game-changer.Ā 
Any songwriting collaborator? Who produced the track? Ā 
I do all my writing, but Josh Kaiser and Jay Merrow had a lot to do with arranging some of the instrumentation. They were both producers as well, along with myself and Alex Bonenfant.
How do you think your sound has evolved since the Fever Dreams era?Ā 
Like I was saying earlier, Iā€™ve always aimed for this big cinematic sound - the goal has stayed the same, but as my resources and connections have expanded, Iā€™ve been able to take that to the next level and really achieve a sound I always dreamed about. My vocals are also a lot more clearā€¦ Iā€™ve never been confident in my voice, so I used to bury it under layers of reverb and other sounds. Iā€™ve had to let the people I work with push me to bring it to the foreground.Ā 
Can we expect more of this style in the future, potentially on an upcoming album?Ā 
Absolutely. My new record comes out May 27, and itā€™s very big and dark and cinematic.Ā 
Besides this excellent single what else should we be on the lookout for?Ā 
The video for this song was directed by Mathew Pimental, an amazing videographer from Detroit. He worked on the video for ā€œCornflower Blueā€ as well, and we just clicked so well on an artistic level. The video for ā€œPisces Moonā€ is so important to the feeling of the song, so I recommend experiencing them together!Ā 
Whatā€™s inspiring you right now outside of music?Ā 
Iā€™ve seen a lot of great movies lately, now that theatres have reopened here. Iā€™m also always reading - I just finished a booked called ā€œEveryone In This Room Will Someday Be Deadā€ by Emily Austin, a Canadian writer. I connected to it in a serious way.
Its Womenā€™s History month, whatā€™s that mean to you personally? Ā 
I wouldnā€™t be where I am now without the women whoā€™ve inspired me both artistically and personally. I feel like my life has been defined largely by my relationship with my mom and nana, my friendships with women, and my admiration for female artists and writers. Celebrate women every day!Ā 
Who are your Ones to Watch?Ā 
I love CupcakKe, sheā€™s one of my favourite rappers. Sheā€™s such a smart writer. Her lyrics are hilarious and so clever. Iā€™m also pretty sure sheā€™s been self-releasing her whole life, totally independent. Sheā€™s made a lot of smart moves and I think sheā€™ll start collaborating with a lot of cool artists soon. Hopefully Flower Face. Iā€™m praying.

For more on Flower Face, check out her Pisces picks below.
Mitski -Ā ā€œLove Me Moreā€
Iā€™ve been listening to Mitskiā€™s new record all the time - this is my favourite. Such a great pop song thatā€™s simultaneously heartbreaking, which I think is the ultimate combo.
Weyes Blood -Ā ā€œMoviesā€
One long, beautiful crescendo. I also love movies.
Sinead O'Connor -Ā ā€œDrink Before The Warā€
Iā€™d be lying if I said I havenā€™t been listening to this constantly since it played on Euphoria - but it has been inspiring me, because musically itā€™s so simple, but it does so much.
Black Country, New Road -Ā ā€œThe Place Where He Inserted The Bladeā€
My boyfriend is really into this band and was playing this album in the car all the time, and during this song I really tuned in and connected to it in a pretty intense way. The lyrics are great. That first verse kind of shatters me.
Aurora -Ā ā€œA Dangerous Thingā€
Aurora is one of my favourite artists. I never get tired of her voice. Iā€™m choosing this song but honestly her entire new record is beautiful.
Damien Rice -Ā ā€œElephantā€
Iā€™ve loved Damien Rice since I was a sad young tween, but Iā€™ve been diving back into his discography lately. This isnā€™t my favourite song of his but thereā€™s just something about him suddenly breaking into a scream about how horny he is (literally) four minutes into this beautiful delicate song that I really respect. Inspires me to just go for it, you know?
Half Waif -Ā ā€œBlinking Lightā€
I love Half Waif. Something about her voice and chord progressions just reaches part of my brain that most music doesnā€™t.
