listen hear! spotlights a new track we love and think you will too.
Bristol singer-songwriter Fenne Lily has shared the single "Alapathy", from her new album, "Breach". The insistent percussion of “Alapathy,” mimics the anxious racing thoughts Fenne deals with as an overthinker and chronicles how she “started smoking weed to switch off [her] brain.” The title is a made-up word that merges "apathy" and “allopathic" (as in Westernized medicine). "Western medicine generally treats the symptoms of an illness rather than the cause," explains Fenne. For Fenne, taking medication to improve her mental health didn’t solve her problems -- she felt like she was only treating the effects of her discomfort, not the reason for it. Its stylized accompanying video features Fenne enjoying solitude in various ways.
