Spanish artist Sandra Iris impresses with new track “I’m Trash.” Enjoyably navigating from unrequited yearning to cathartic confidence, Iris’ vocals exude a consuming Gwen Stefani-like vibe amidst an assortment of bird chirping, retro-minded guitars, and lush key-laden additions. The excellent chorus’ punctuation — “you might think I’m trash,” — succeeds with an emotive, atmospheric charm. The release, including lyrics in both English and Spnaish, was produced by LEIDAN.
Iris elaborates more on the track:
“‘I’m Trash’ is an ironic song. It tells the story of being in love with a friend, while they are in love with someone else. You feel like shit yes, but then you reach a cathartic point where you don’t give a fuck and you write this song making fun of you for being dramatic about this. It’s not the end of the world.”
