Marika Hackman – All Night
After their break-up, both Amber Bain (a.k.a. The Japanese House) and Marika Hackman dedicated their new albums to documenting the relationship. Bain’s debut full length Good At Falling is a beautiful, but painfully personal collection of songs. We’ll only know what Hackman’s third album Any Human Friend sounds like once it’s released on 8 August.
However, some previews are already available. Following recent singles I’m Not Where You Are and The One, she just put out a third one: All Night. A sexually charged song.
Hackman explains: “I thought it would be exciting to write a really overtly sexual song about a woman from the perspective of a woman. You don’t hear much about sex between women in music, or if you do its usually from a fetishized male perspective. I thought I’d reclaim a bit of that power.”
