For those of you who feel like the release of Marissa Nadler’s new album is a life-time away, new song ‘The Wrecking Ball Company’ may ease your impatience. The first track to be taken from her upcoming album The Sister, the companion to last year’s eponymous full-length, ‘The Wrecking Ball Company’ is every bit as delicate and ethereal as we could have hoped. Nadler’s siren like vocals accompany gentle, finger-picked guitars from the start before sparse instrumentals unfold to reveal a lavishly adorned number. Listen for yourself below.
The Sister is due out on 28 May via the songstress’ own Box of Cedar record label.
