Next week, Hilary Woods is releasing a new album, Birthmarks. We’ve heard “Tongues Of Wild Boar” and “Orange Tree” from it already, and today the Irish musician is sharing “The Moth.” It’s a visceral, gorgeous piece of work that sounds like it could be in an A24 horror film.

“The impulse to write The Mouth came from a longing to articulate feelings aloud that I failed to express til the moment had passed,” Woods said in a statement. “Braiding together harmonies of distorted vocals and heavy drone woven with saxophone and strings was my own way of exorcising the demise of a relationship that could no longer be resuscitated. The Mouth, the threshold of expression and healing.”
