SIPHO. announces new EP SHE MIGHT BLEED

20 January 2022, 12:04 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

SIPHO. has announced his forthcoming EP SHE MIGHT BLEED, which features new track "OCCASION" that SIPHO. debuted during a recent COLORS performance.

"OCCASION" was debuted by SIPHO. during a COLORS performance on Monday (17 January), and today (20 January) the track has been given an official release, and arrives with news of his upcoming EP SHE MIGHT BLEED.

SIPHO. said of "OCCASION", "The way we feel about someone tends to outweigh the logic of a difficult situation - somewhere we know we logically shouldn't be. Yet no matter how wise or mature you might be, you take the stupidest, most illogical route. But hey, it's just some human shit that we do. From the historically hopeless romantic, to that girl left in a passionate daze by her drug dealer. We all do it!"

SHE MIGHT BLEED will follow SIPHO.'s 2021 project AND GOD SAID..., and will also feature "BEADY EYES" that dropped in November last year.

He added of the upcoming EP, "It started off as a study of hyper-masculinity after some kids tried to rob me and threatened to stab me. What drives this hold of violence and dominance over us as men, young and old? As I wrote, it naturally came back to love, and furthermore the way this behaviour impacts the women in our lives. Something a lot of us have seen in the men around us, be it fathers, brothers, uncles, etc., and the way the women around them were affected, while also still supporting in some cases. Some of this may trickle down to the next generations - we see bits of it in ourselves as young men, less potent but still present."

Tracklist:

  1. DON’T GET IT
  2. OCCASION
  3. BEADY EYES
  4. INTERLUDE
  5. FADIN’
  6. CHIASMA
"OCCASION" is out now. SIPHO.'s SHE MIGHT BLEED EP will arrive via Dirty Hit on 18 February. He'll play Best Fit's Two Day Forecast tomorrow (21 January) at The Lexington. Visit sipho.me for his full list of tour dates.
