Olympia – Shoot to Forget
Olympia - Shoot to Forget
Release Date: Out Now
Well this is a slice of something
wonderful. Melbourne based artist Olympia has created one of those immediately
arresting songs with an equally arresting video to match and it’s genuinely one
of my favourite things right now. ‘Shoot to Forget’ will appeal to fans of Anna
Calvi or PJ Harvey but the quirky, off-kilter melody of the verses juxtaposed
with the punchy, direct chorus and dreamy vocals really sets this apart as
something truly original. “Hide behind the camera so he can shoot to forget, I
was just a postcard from a gift shop left by a tourist” – so goes the opening
lyric and if that doesn’t grab your attention and peak your interest then go
back to your Greatest Showman soundtrack and leave me alone.
