Billie Marten shares new track "Creature Of Mine" that's set in a "post-apocalyptic scenario"
Billie Marten has released "Creature Of Mine", a new track that's set in a "post-apocalyptic scenario" and arrives as a second preview of her upcoming album Flora Fauna.
"Creature Of Mine" follows Marten's album opener "Garden Of Eden" that landed in January, and is a track that Marten described as being "an end of the world, post-apocalyptic scenario".
Marten adds, "You get to choose one thing, one person to leave it with. It’s a love song to a stranger and a polite request to momentarily leave Earth when it’s all too much."
She says of the accompanying Joe Wheatley-directed video, "Joe and I wanted this video to represent that needless search for something other than what you have. Something intangible and elusive, something also quite beautiful and abstract to pair with the song - an inconclusively painted picture."
Flora Fauna will mark Marten's first album since 2019's Feeding Seahorses By Hand, and was recorded with Rich Cooper in London.
Marten says of her third album, "I wasn’t really treating myself very well, it was a bit of a disruptive time. All these songs are about getting myself out of that hole - they’re quite strong affirmations. The name Flora Fauna is like a green bath for my eyes. If the album was a painting, it would look like flora and fauna - it encompasses every organism, every corner of Earth, and a feeling of total abundance."
