Austra – Hurt Me Now by Domino Record Co
After three years of touring with large names around the world, Austra set aside some time to focus on a track that is extremely personal. Through the emotional lyrics and dream-like melody, “Hurt Me Now” will enchant its listeners. The track may seem dark and melancholy, but its overall intention is to be bubbly and upbeat. Instead of using programming, the band decided to change things up and play everything live in the studio, which further emphasizes their evolution as musicians.
