SINGLE REVIEW: The Marijanovic - Butterfly Feeling
The latest single 'Butterfly Feeling' from Norwich's The Marijanovic isn't an easy listen, not because it's bad, far from it. It's a harrowing, intoxicating sound that will plummet you into the depths of your darkest thoughts and deepest insecurities. It will leave you with a yearning feeling of confusion and longing.
Arty and dramatic 'Butterfly Feeling' feels reminiscent of Nick Cave or Anthony and the Johnsons with its openness and grand, heartfelt stance. It's clear to see the words mean everything to The Marijanovic, dripping every part of himself into the song. It feels emotionally exhausting. A beautiful montage of stunning, haunting riffs, epic drums, and glorious, powerful vocals. The track is an outcry of pain and thoughts, a dark journey through feelings of hopelessness, and the idea of being stationary as the world passes you by.
The more downtrodden verse contrasts beautifully against the bold, anthemic chorus as the track reaches its crescendo of tournament. 'Butterfly Feeling' isn't for the faint of heart, it will touch your soul and hit you right in your feelings. It will leave you fighting back tears and weak to the emotions it induces.
A formidable, impactful listen The Marijanovic is one of the brightest stars Norwich has to offer. Honest and genuine with real showman qualities. Giving every piece of his being to his art he is a talented songwriter who isn't afraid to challenge himself or his listeners.
