Spill Tab’s “Splinter” paints a blue-toned and bleak image of love succumbing to the pain of sustaining it. Just before a pummeling of drums kicks the song into its rip-roaring chorus. Over the gloomy whine and grind of those heavy guitars, Spill Tab grasps at despair. But her overlayed vocals, which float buoyantly above the song’s clamor, somehow keep “Splinter” from being too depressing. The song also comes with a visualizer, a glitchy and shakily-shot film — reminiscent of vintage VHS tapes — that gazes at the artist as she sits kneeling with her arms wrapped around her legs.
On the single, she explains: “I wanted to make something with a bit of an early 2000s rom com end credits vibe going on, so I made ‘Splinter ‘with my friends Wyatt and Austin, who absolutely smashed it. It’s a bit depressing lyrically but I love having those visuals layered over the crunchy drums and guitars.”
