OLIVER MARSON DEATH OF A PORNSTAR

‘Death Of A Pornstar’ is the latest track from art-pop specialist Oliver Marson. It’s a typically quirky track that twists and turns beneath his signature vocal croon. Left-field synth sounds pulse alongside punchy drums and warm bass, crafting a sound that fits alongside flamboyant rock bands like Pulp and Sparks. “This was a difficult song to approach, because it might seem like I am just being gratuitous and provocative for the sake of it,” he explains. “However, I think art should really be about trying to address difficult topics. In this case, it really is about the oppression that exists within the porn industry.” This track is the final single to be taken from Marson’s upcoming debut album, Why Did I Choose This?, drops on October 6th, 2023. -Dan Peeke
