As we enter the year of 'Drive to Goldenhammer', Nottingham's Divorce have excitedly unveiled their latest single Pill, beautifully depicting the trials and tribulations of a long-distance relationship. Through a dazzling and snarling 5 minute escapade, the track's jarring guitar riffs and free-forming melodies soon give way to a change in pace as Tiger Cohen-Towell's velveteen vocals take lead before closing out on its playful outro. Sharing more detail they go on to say, "'Pill' was written on not my piano at not my flat in not my city;
Glasgow to be specific. It’s about sexual awakenings and the absolute
thrill of feeling seen properly. It’s also about a long-term
long-distance relationship that turned my life upside down (and
continues to), and my relationship with a new place alongside that. It’s
one of the queerest songs on the record, all three sections highlight a
different realm of my queer experience. It’s also potentially the most
unconventionally arranged song on the record and making it was a very
playful and light-hearted process. From the get-go I wanted it to have
three very different sections in this song, the rest of the band trusted
that instinct and we all threw ourselves into making it work, so it was
nice to feel professionally seen whilst making a song about feeling
personally seen!" Take a listen for yourselves below.
