The five stages of grief are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. LRain manages to squeeze these countless experiences into three minutes and thirty-one seconds of ethereal virtuosity into Blame Me. As she writes an Instagram post, the song follows regrets about things I wish I had done or said. while people are live, things that I wish I could do or say to keep them alive. Blame Me is a prayer made of cyclical lyricism, pinched guitar, and overbearing synths, and I guarantee you’ve never heard anything like it before.

Fatigue LRain You were wasting away, my god I’m heading south. I was born naked in this world. You never let me see you cry. I didn’t give you anything in my time, maybe that’s what ends your life. I fought my demons until you were old, maybe because you love me. little babies.

Released as a single this year, Blame Me follows a three-year silence from Taja Cheek, the extraordinary artist behind LRain. The latest work (and the first single from his upcoming LP Fatigue, released June 25 via Mexican Summer) radiates more into LRain as an artist, developing his experimental and airy sound as well as his emotional bravery by discussing the good, the bad and the the ugly one. It seems that at this stage of his life grief is at hand.

LRain wastes no time, mastering every interval of the song. Each part comes together with a purpose, as if LRain is the puppeteer and the track is a soft puppet, rising and falling as he pleases. The opening guitar section begins the work, reminiscent of the beginnings of a puzzle where edge pieces snap into place with relative ease. She starts in a trance state, You were wasting away, my god / I’m heading south. Her voice is a dream. There is a palpable shimmer in her light timbre, which illuminates her falsetto. The puzzle is over when her sparkling silver voice penetrates the navy blue of the instrumental foreground.

Spend yourself now. Get off.

All movements go in one direction. LRain sings south as she descends. Descent into death is no different from descent into the Canyon of Loss in which it now rests. Entrenched in dead end erosion, she speaks, Gave you nothing within my time / Maybe that’s what ends your life. There’s a hope she hasn’t taken what she can’t return, a blow in the dark for whatever she can hold onto, something that can be defined. In this chasm that LRain has created, she stands in the eye of the hurricane, Blame Me being her moment of muffled reflection in the midst of a raging storm.

A raw confession in a battered tape recorder, Blame Me is an intimate expedition for anyone who finds themselves in a severe storm.
