About This Song
About "The Muscle" by Kate Miller Heidke
The Muscle' is the body's memory of pain—Miller-Heidke flexing a bruise into song. From The Kiss And The Abyss, it's tense, sinewy art-pop, all clenched rhythm and breath held too long. The muscle remembers what the mind forgets, and the melody aches with the effort of letting go.
