Portland hardcore / industrial artist King Yosef announces a new EP, The Ever Growing Wound, due May 2 – you can pre-order it here. He’s also shared a new single / video from the EP, “Fair Bloom” which you can watch here.
“‘Fair Bloom’ is a song that I’ve been excited to share because it’s leaning into a new sonic space that I haven’t showcased before. This feels like my first real singing release as well as full band feeling, and is closer to what I’ve always wanted my music to be. The lyrical premise is my relationship with God as a child and the strange isolation of having religious family who “feel” his spirit and guidance, and feeling the opposite way and not having the tools to make sense of it. It is a song of empowerment and finality to my younger self’s questions.”
