she's green - "Paper Thin"
Photo by Wendy Rosales
she's green have been releasing a series of singles that have encompassed just about every subgenre of shoegaze, and their latest harkens back to the first of theirs we ever covered. "Paper Thin" is an absolutely gorgeous and quiet shoegaze song. You still get the wall of sound associated with the genre, albeit a more gentle version. It's a lush and delicate song that is awash in melancholy. If you tend to enjoy music on the mote chill and gloomy side, "Paper Thin" is for you. she's green aren't quite drifting into the realm of goth on their latest, but the vibes are definitely there.
Zofia Smith says of her band's latest single:
“‘paper thin’ explores the power of lust in a dying relationship: how it can be confused for love when in reality, the relationship has already faded."
