‘Darknucore’ band Heartsick tackle suicidal ideation and self-love with their new single “My Funeral“. The band teamed up with Sapphire Noel for this latest track and the video that accompanies it. The band’s frontman Alfonso Civile once again served as the director for the latter. He had the following to say about the song itself and once again working with Noel:
“‘My Funeral‘” came from the writing sessions with Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, King 810) where the band really wanted to explore another duet with Sapphire like we had done prior with our song Sadness.
This time however, I wanted to take a step back lyrically and let Sapphire really steer the song where she envisioned lyrically. It was also an exercise on my part of letting go of the wheel and letting someone else’s vision that is close to the band (Heartsick bassist Waylon Fox and Sapphire are engaged) roam free and see what our music speaks to them.
All the lyrics were written by Sapphire with a little help from myself and our producer Josh. Which was also interesting because Sapphire had never written lyrics to a song before so it was this fun process of helping build this thing from a new perspective.”
