Built atop an oscillating piano line and some restless, dizzying drumming, “Death & Romance” is a psychedelic pop swirl from Magdalena Bay. Singer Mica Tenenbaum’s voice is drenched in atmosphere, lending a hypnotic and hazy air to the song — meanwhile, the track’s five minute run time and spacey bridge suggest a cosmic odyssey. “Death & Romance” is also Magdalena Bay’s first offering since signing to Mom + Pop Music in June 2023. Stream “Death & Romance” below.
Magdalena Bay — comprised of Mica Tenenbaum and multi-instrumentalist Matt Lewin — have been teasing the arrival of new music on social media for the last several weeks in their usually uncanny, absurd visual style. Before their 2023 mini mix EP, Magdalena Bay’s last effort was their 2021 debut Mercurial World, which they also released a deluxe version of the following year.
