‘CLAUSTROPHOBIC’ is the latest track from mlbacard¡, a rising artist obsessed with music and its nuances. This particular track almost acts as a time capsule that transports us back to her teenage years, with her emotive voice struggling to hide the pain the extreme lack of self-confidence her 15-year-old self felt when she first penned the track. She says: “This song is the vulnerable depiction of innocence and the lack of confidence of an average teen life perspective… It creates a clear-cut timeline of the evolution of me as a person and relatively teenage life as a whole.” She delivers these extremely personal lyrics over luscious lo-fi guitars and hip-hop drums, perfect for a summer evening. Keep an eye out for more from this exciting artist. -Dan Peeke
