Katie Wood hypnotises with Buffy inspired single ‘Enemies to lovers.'
When the world outside is out of reach, nostalgia provides the perfect escape away from tedious repetition. In this case, nostalgia has lent itself to music.
‘Enemies to Lovers’ is the latest track from Essex’s Katie Wood, and discusses the famous enemies to lovers trope through a perfect collision of mystical vocals set to a backdrop of hypnotic musicality that draws you in like a spell from the get-go.
The relationship within the song, inspired by the dynamic of Buffy and Spike’s relationship within Buffy the Vampire Slayer, is one of complexity, with very few moments of ease, a type of chemistry perfectly captured within the song's intoxicating lyrics particularly 'I know you think I'm the enemy but if I said I love you would you say it back?'
This track drips with distinct influences, from Cocteau twins’ dreamy tones to Drab Majesty’s captivating nostalgic energy, perfectly combining with Katie’s own charisma and style into a beautifully decorated package of addictive musical mystique.
'Enemies to lovers' is the kind of track to captivate your soul long after the final note has faded out, haunting you like a memory you can’t quite place, but one that will have you lost within a moment’s notice when you remember it.
Katie Wood is a diamond in the rough, if you don't look now you could miss their sparkle.
