SPELLING has shared the title track from her forthcoming album The Turning Wheel. The single comes with an accompanying self-directed video, which you can check out below.
SPELLLING’s Chrystia Cabral had this to say about the track in a statement:
‘Turning Wheel’ is a bittersweet anthem about the desire for the pure and simple moments in time to last forever. I fantasize about a realm of peace, gentleness and ecstasy, like a pristine wilderness that evades the conditions, demands and decay of the human world and its pursuits. I’m the type of personality and artist that yearns for deep reclusion and repose, and oftentimes I struggle to make choices. I frequently feel immobilized by the structures and regiments of being a modern world citizen. I sing about these personal tensions through ‘The Turning Wheel’ and also speak to the larger theme of the album: the cosmic wheel of life. The song, like the album as a whole, ponders: when does reality stop circling around itself? When if ever will we reach a divine, angelic state that transcends the turning wheel?
The Turning Wheel is set to arrive on June 25 via Sacred Bones. SPELLLING previously shared the singles ‘Little Deer’ and ‘Boys At School’, both of which made it onto our Best New Songs segment.
