Sweet Pill's forthcoming record Still There’s A Glow is shaping up to be a shredder. This was proved by previous singles "No Control" and "Glow," and the newest one, "Slow Burn," is the most exhilarating yet.
About the track, singer Zayna Youssef explains:
I kept seeing a cigarette and how every slow drag fills you up with literal death, but the exhale feels so good — the irony of how something that feels good is so bad for you. There are countless things in my life I take a deeeep, slow drag from that really don’t benefit me, these habits have a short term satisfaction but the long term effect can be just one big slowburn. The song and video explore anxiety disguised as cameras and their constant surveillance. A snapshot into the mind of someone who overthinks to the point of ‘seeing things’ that may not even be there. Whether I am battling confidence or bad habits, overthinking can be so habitual. It kind of traps you in this circular purgatory which you find me running in and out of.
