Roman Candle release new song ‘Lady Lazarus’
ROMAN CANDLE have released their latest single!
The Las Vegas screamo have released their new single Lady Lazarus. The new song sees the quartet deliver a track confronting misogyny, survival, and the pressure to shrink for others’ comfort. Named after Sylvia Plath’s poem, the new single follows on from previous singles Bite Harder Than You Bleed and Can We Watch Something Happy?.
Speaking about the new single, vocalist Piper Ferrari explains, “Lady Lazarus is me confronting misogyny head‑on and refusing to shrink for anyone. The title comes from the Sylvia Plath poem, and like her, I’m pulling something powerful out of something painful. Lines like ‘Tender when I wanna be, Callous when I have to be’ came from recognising how women are expected to bend, soften, or apologise just to exist – but also how we learn to harden ourselves for survival.
When I sing ‘Give me your dead stare, I eat men like air,’ it’s not about hating men – it’s about reclaiming the space that was denied to me, the anger I was taught to bury, and the fear I was meant to carry. This song is the sound of unlearning all of that. It’s rage, it’s release, and it’s me deciding I’m no longer shrinking out of anyone’s comfort.”
