2. Pink Snow // For All My Sisters
Clocking in at a record seven minutes, album closer ‘Pink Snow’ is a stunning three-part track that listens like a modern-day garage-punk rock opera. The first part of the song is soft and supple, with distant guitars, delicate vocals, and a quiet bass line. They then all quickly crescendo and erupt into something incredible, layered inside a heavy baroque-pop influence that is as dark and sinister as it is beautiful. “Do you picture me alone? / You’re better on your own/ to all my sisters, I promise you this, that / I’ll try and be brave for you…” the Jarmans plead across the verses, every other chorus attempting to out-amplify and out-explode the previous. For every earth-shattering verse, however, a fragile, more gentle sound is mirrored, and the song ultimately closes out on the band’s signature heavy riffs, with none being as poignant.
