Haunting, Primal, and Bold: Discover Violet Love’s Destined to Fail
Destined to Fail is the highly intriguing new EP from Violet Love, a solo artist who has lived and performed all over America and now calls Michigan home. A short and inventive three-track offering, it's a release that the musician says explores how trauma has impacted them.
"I've spent the last year of my life trying to be brutally honest with myself…even when it hurt…and it has led me to where I am today…feeling like we are destined to fail."
The eerie and minimalist sounds of Serpent get the EP underway, creating a spatial, almost ethereal environment, before the raw and deeply primal Apple steps up to the plate. It's an intense and gritty change of pace, but a showcase of Violet Love's fearless approach to songwriting.
Artist is the EPs third and final tune, and it's one I recommend savouring and experiencing with intention. There's a ton going on here - and allowing the layered soundscape to wash over you is the only way to truly absorb this powerful piece of music.
A release that wears its soul on its sleeve, Destined to Fail is as genuine as it gets. It's an unguarded glimpse into Violet Love and who they are, and I simply cannot wait to hear from them again!
