APACALDA – Jealous

by Stephan Boissonneault

Just after her hazy and wonderful set at TAVERNE TOUR, Montreal’s alt indie songwriter, APACALDA, is back, with a laid-back and groove-laden track called “Jealous.” Perfect in time for Valentine’s Day, “Jealous” is about the creeping envy that takes hold and overrides the very fabric of your system, usually spurred by a failed romance.

You give in to the jealousy and make moves that you, in your deepest of hearts, know are wrong, but feel so satisfying. Almost as satisfying as the leading bassline from Misha Stein (TEKE::TEKE, Patrick Watson, FHANG), which feels like a morphine-dripped Tame Impala intro. The groove takes hold and APACALDA’s smokey vocals consume the scenery. The lyric video features a retro, yellow TV, as some animated footage of crumbling lovers is broadcast.

It’s a different and more laid-back vibe from her previous single, “Dead Weight,” which had more of a darkened shock-rock edge. “The single “Jealous” also signals the upcoming release date of the highly anticipated full-length album, There’s a Shadow in My Room And it Isn’t Mine, due in mid-June.
