Lykke Li | No Rest For The Wicked
When Lykke Li said "Every song on the album is a power ballad" she most certainly wasn't lying as the Swedish songstress returns with her brand new single No Rest For The Wicked. Weighed down by its fragility and broken vocals it doesn't take long for the track to expand in to a gorgeous piano led composition, gripping from the moment it sets off. Lykke commented,"No Rest For The Wicked is the second song I wrote for I Never Learn. I wrote it in Sweden when I was packing up my shit, and I’d just gotten out of a relationship and it was a horrible time. I just had the hurt, shame, sadness, guilt, longing. The vocal track, the take, is the demo. In the verse, I’m referring to myself pleading guilty but I’m referring to all of us."
No Rest For the Wicked will be released April 21st with the new album 'I Never Learn' set to follow on 5th May 2014 through LL Recordings/Atlantic Records.
