Speedy Ortiz debut new EP cut 'Emma O'
Earlier on this month, Speedy Ortiz announced a new EP, ‘Foiled Again’, alongside a track from the release ‘Death Note’. Now, they’ve revealed a second.

The latest cut, ‘Emma O’, debuted via Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 radio show, and is named after “the Japanese Buddhist overlord of hell who judges souls.”

Not just someone called Emma, then.

“I wrote it at a farmhouse in update New York years ago,” Sadie Dupuis reveals in a statement. Can we really sure it’s not about a friendly cow or an especially inquisitive chicken, then? No. No we can’t.
