In an era where female fronted pop is getting considerably more gothic in both image and sound, the dramatic guitar-driven new single from petite London-based singer Yadi is perfectly timed. Everything about "The Blow" is melodramatic and desperate. Distorted guitars rage like a Paramore track and tribal drums pound, whilst Yadi's husky crow-call is halfway between the sultry musings of Charli XCX and the operatic wail of Marina Diamandis. "Your love is like a gun shot... just keep on shooting, 'cause I can't feel the blow" cries Yadi in the hook-laden chorus, and it's very much the effect the song has in general.
FOR FANS OF: Chvrches, Charli XCX, Marina & The Diamonds
