Clark, Violet
Pure O
The new single from Violet Clark is a playful venture into unconventional yet catchy danceable pop territory. The song is told through the lens of an obsessive compulsive mind. The off-kilter lead synthesizer that kicks off the song and comes and goes throughout signifies a brain on the verge of being "ripped apart". But Violet holds it all together with cool finesse and stylish pop melodies. Aided by the spot-on drums of Noam Schatz and the distinctive acoustic guitar of Pixies head honcho Black Francis, Violet Clark conjures quirkiness with a payoff, complete with a chorus that youll have a hard time getting out of your head. Pure O also features the B-side, Shes My Girl, a commanding and sizzling cover of indie darling Ariel Pinks modern lo-fi classic.
