Marika Hackman: “Slime”
A pulsating acoustic trembler. Marika Hackman has the poetic murmur to launch a thousand journal entries. Our highlighted track “Slime” takes the scalpel’s edge to the contours of stable relationship exercises. Earnest aspiration or pure wish fulfillment? Spartan production at the outset builds up to some slick sonic tricks that belie the simplicity of Hackman’s lyrical platitudes, suggesting that something more vital lurks beneath. Maybe it’s the motherfucking Loch Ness Monster. Off BIG SIGH. Via Chrysalis Records.
