Mia Mormino triumphs on lyrically powerful single, "Joan of Arc"
Staying incredibly consistent through 2022, Mia Mormino has made a statement with her newest thrilling single, “Joan of Arc”. Keep reading for a closer look into the track, as well as a much needed update on the artist.
It’s been almost five months to the day since we last covered Mia Mormino and her single “Alternate Reality”, but since then, she’s been on an absolute tear. With a song release in between called “Burning Hell”, she’s managed to step it up another notch on this euphoric and downright powerful new one titled “Joan of Arc”. It’s lyrically significant, emphatic in her delivery, and we sincerely have enjoyed our multiple listens. Obviously, we’re urging everyone out there to give it a spin as soon as possible.
On the background of it all, “Joan of Arc” is ultimately a “song that has many layers of meaning and as time has gone on, those layers have continued to stack”. Says Mia on its creation, “I’ve had this song in the vault for a little while now, debating when I should release it, how I should release it, etc. But recently, the Supreme Court’s heinous decision making has added a new layer of meaning, which as a result pushed me to release this now”. It’s a decision that we wholeheartedly respect, and given its origins and timely release, knowing all about it makes it hit that much harder. It represents acts of rebellion, prospering towards a brighter future, and reclaiming the power we’re entitled to.
While the message of it all is one we’re fully behind, the sonic landscape and composition of “Joan of Arc” is impressive almost beyond words. We particularly loved how the song slowly evolves and manifests into this big and grand production, all the while Mia’s voice stays relatively even keeled until the song gears up for its final explosion. A recommendation here would be to listen to this with a nice pair of headphones, otherwise you may be missing out on those subtleties that really makes it pop the most. The layered textures in sound are unreal and unexpected, but truly acted as that cherry on top and signature essence that she’s bringing to her discography as a whole. Once again, she’s come out on top for a song that we’ve quickly fallen in love with.
