Hiatus-Kaiyote - By Fire
The Very Soulful And Groovy Outro To The Band’s EP "By Fire" And The Seventeenth Track On The Album "Choose Your Weapon". According To Lead Singer Nai Palm It Is Kind Of A Breakup Song But She Did Not Want To Wallow In Her Suffering Because When You Go Through Something Like That And Document It And Then You Overcome It Performing It Each Time Would Open That Wound So She Wrote It From The Perspective Of How She Would Be In The Long Run Making It A Positive Song. Lyrically There Are Many Layers To It And She Said It Is So That Different People Can Find Multiple Ways To Interact With The Song. Band Drummer Perrin Moss Said That The Song Was Recorded From Start To Finish With The Whole Band And They Managed To Isolate Each Component In The Song After Several Takes. "“Molasses" Is A Breakup Song. I Was Feeling Horrible In Paris From A Horrible Breakup But I Didn’t Want To Write From Wallowing. I Knew That In The Future I Would Grow From It I Don’t Want To Share That Negativity With People.”
