“’Desire,’ likely the most aggressive and sinister song in the Los Angeles artist’s
repertoire. “I want to fuck you, I want to feel you in my bones,” she rages on bluntly in
the clattering, almost grunge-y pop-rock number. Not holding back for one second, she
hurls a ravenous chorus, yelping, “How do you want me? How do you want me?”
showcasing Myers in all her raw, blood-thirsty glory.
“With a dynamic sound that reminds us of the love child of Sinead O’Connor and
Linkin Park… Meg Myers won’t stop until she gets her way… or a hit album,
whichever comes first.”
“Los Angeles-via-Tennessee singer/songwriter Meg Myers juggles the pretty and
the ugly perfectly, as you can tell by listening to her new single, “Desire.” It opens
with a menacing drift then bursts with melodic fireworks. The piano soars, yet the
bass-lines creep… Add in lines about skinning, killing, and being thrown to hounds,
sung in Myers’ fierce-then-vulnerable voice, and you have something that is as
sweet as it is unsettling.”
“Sometimes you see a youtube video and your only response is, “Who the
fuck is that ?” That ’s what happened when I first saw Meg Myers’
“Monster.” For one thing, Myers barely blinks. Instead, she staggers
backward in a nightgown, an antique Fiona Apple starring in a remake of
Village of the Damned. She howls raw anguish.”
“…the video is simply stunning and Meg’s voice
embodies so many feelings that it’s clear there’s a lot
going on behind this record.”
“The lovelorn facets of Myers' dark, intimate music might evoke Sinéad
O'Connor or Fiona Apple, but there are also moments of tumult and
menace that trace back to her teenage fascination with grunge bands
such as Nirvana and Alice in Chains.”
“Meg Myers is not just another cute songstress. She’s got a
powerful voice and a slightly menacing touch that sets her
apart from the rest of the pack.”
“Not only does she create indie tunes—much in the same vain as
Alanis Morrisette, might we add—but she also has an undeniable
beauty that softens her angsty demeanor. Although her new
“I’m telling you —
EP Daughter in the Choir released quietly, the message is loud and
don’t underestimate this girl.”’
clear: there is ample room for a strong feminine perspective in the
moody indie space. She isn't the first to purvey a the particular brand
of indie, and certainly won't be the last. But one thing's for sure: she
looks good doing it.”
“Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Closer’ finally has an answer song. With ‘Desire,’ Meg Myers
has crafted a track that challenges the dark sexuality of the 1994 classic. ‘I gotta
hurt you,’ the Los Angeles-based artist sings, and that’s just one of the lighter
lyrics. Later, over the palm-muted tension of electric-guitar chords, she warms
up to: ‘I want to f*** you/ I want to feel you in my bones.’ You hear that rattling?
That’s Trent Reznor shaking in his steel-toe boots.”
