Below the tree-line through myth, lust and the psyche, Natty Wylah’s new single ‘Cinders’ echoes metropolitan life through a ‘forest that doesn’t sleep’. With Purple Cloud’s orchestral production giving a night-sky crispness, moon-kissed lyrics flicker through scenes of sirens, cicadas and spirits in the cinders. After welcoming you to ‘the spiral’, Wylah talks of ‘prophets mumbling dishonesty’ — this fire-lit forest-world, spoken into existence throughout the song is analogy for the smoke and mirror reality that’s offered to us today. Wading through our modern day illusions, ‘Cinders’ speaks of insanity: the story of navigating pressures and offers those who oppose ‘nothing but this fire and smoke’.
