Swahili Blonde share "Rose My Emperor" from new LP out Jan 22

/

"'Rose My Emperor' was inspired by The Lovers tarot card. In one of the decks I own, the lovers are represented by the Emperor and Empress and their marriage together. I think every human being has male and female aspects inside them. These aspects bring forth strong behaviors and instincts, and are there to give us insight and to serve us well. When these parts of ourselves are nurtured and blended together, they bring us harmony. When we are disconnected from them, we our in conflict with ourselves and that can be very confusing and disruptive." - Nicole Turley

Check out the first single "Young Rebels" via CMJ and ready yourself for the release of Fruitless Research on Graveface Records February 12.
