Today, NYC-based singer, poet, and musician Stella Rose returns with her second single, “Angel,” alongside an accompanying music video. As remarked by PAPER contributor Jade Gomez, the track induces “auditory whiplash,” slowing things down and introducing a “folkier” and “impassioned” side of Stella Rose’s haunting siren-esque vocality.
Speaking on the track’s music video, director Primordialfreaks wrote: “The inspiration was mainly the song itself, the dark but also light quality. I think we set out to capture the heartbreak of Angel. It’s a sad but also triumphant song, like a celebration of loss and loneliness and how the most difficult things can make life more pure in a strange sort of way.”
Earlier this fall, Stella Rose made her official debut with an electrifying, yet haunting single entitled “Muddled Man,” released alongside a theatrical accompanying video. The track was produced by Yves Rothman (Yves Tumor, Girlpool, Blondshell) and received acclaim from publications such as Rolling Stone UK, Clash, Brooklyn Vegan, Northern Transmissions, CREEM, and NME.
Stay tuned for more music from Stella Rose, out via KRO Records.
