LONDON, UK (Top40 Charts) Marina & The Diamonds has returned under the moniker Electra
Heart and a song/video 'Fear and Loathing' which she posted to her official website.
In a recent post @twitter Marina said:
"Electra Heart" embodies the lies, illusions and death of an American Dream.
"Part 1" is called "Fear And Loathing". This includes a preview of an album track, under same title.
"Part 2" will be posted on this same page next Monday at 4pm.
Nice to be back,
Love,
Marina
Marina pointed out in a recent interview with PopJustice that Electra Hearts is a story, told in a 'cinematic 70s Americana-type film' format, which has been broken down into several parts for release.
Asked to describe just what Electra Heart is and stands for, Marina told Popjustice: "Electra Heart is the antithesis of everything that I stand for. And the point of introducing her and building a whole concept around her is that she stands for the corrupt side of American ideology, and basically that's the corruption of yourself. My worst fear - that's anyone's worst fear - is losing myself and becoming a vacuous person. And that happens a lot when you're very ambitious."
