I love the idea of something being sick at the seams, like it’s disintegrating from its core.
MYKA RELOCATE THE YOUNG SOULS LYRICS FULL
My friends always accuse me of making up idioms and using them like they are well known phrases and I think this song is full of those. At the beginning it was a song about a power dynamic where I was in control, by the end it was about one where I had none. It took the longest a song has ever taken me to write lyrics for, and they took form over a few years. We wanted it to sound like massive pop, like Charli XCX, but with the instrumentation of bands like Slothrust or Deftones. Frontperson Dana Margolin had this to say about the song: “‘The Rip’ was the last song to be finished for the album, and we finished it about a week before we went into the studio to record it in March 2021. Our Song of the Day is “The Rip” which is led by soaring synths and roaring guitars, as the song slowly builds and bursts. Last month, they released the follow-up Waterslide, Diving Board, Ladder to the Sky which broadens Porridge Radio’s sound without giving up any of their defining characteristics. While not technically the first album under the Porridge Radio moniker, it felt like an introduction to the band, who blended UK post-punk with anthemic indie rock for a uniquely cathartic sound. Right before the pandemic shut the world down, Brighton band Porridge Radio dropped Every Bad, their first record on Secretly Canadian that would go on to receive a Mercury Prize nomination as well as a generous amount of airplay on KEXP.
