Members of Ought and Yung share second collaborative cut as Brooch
Brooch - Ben Stidworthy of Ought and Mikkel Holm Silkjær of Yung - have shared a second cut from their creative collaboration.
While "Blood Spitting" saw Stidworthy take the lead, its flipside "Broken Glass" features Silkjær at the creative helm.
"I wrote the song lyrics shortly after Ben’s departure from Aarhus," the musician recalls. "It was winter and I was very much in a transitional phase."
The track meanders in a kind of blissful delight, with bubbling riffs serving as a potent contrast to the darkened lyrics within. "A see-through window is not a rare sight / but a shattered one will leave blood behind..." Silkjær sings. There's a detached nature to his words, emotions curbed by a sense of inevitability.
"It’s about ambition, love, lust, and ultimately endings," Silkjær says. "Lovers parting, Brothers cutting their last bond. Relationships coming to an end will always be hard to deal with, and the change you have to face afterwards can seem frightening but in the end it will undeniably make a new thing bloom."
