Not holding back for one second, she hurls a ravenous chorus, yelping, “How do you want me? How do you want me?” showcasing Myers in all her raw, blood-thirsty glory. “With a dynamic sound that reminds us of the love child of Sinead O’Connor and Linkin Park… Meg Myers won’t stop until she gets her way… or a hit album, whichever comes first.” “Los Angeles-via-Tennessee singer/songwriter Meg Myers juggles the pretty and the ugly perfectly, as you can tell by listening to her new single, “Desire.” It opens with a menacing drift then bursts with melodic fireworks. The piano soars, yet the bass-lines creep… Add in lines about skinning, killing, and being thrown to hounds, sung in Myers’ fierce-then-vulnerable voice, and you have something that is as sweet as it is unsettling.” “Sometimes you see a youtube video and your only response is, “Who the fuck is that ?” That ’s what happened when I first saw Meg Myers’ “Monster.” For one thing, Myers barely blinks. Instead, she staggers backward in a nightgown, an antique Fiona Apple starring in a remake of Village of the Damned. She howls raw anguish.” “…the video is simply stunning and Meg’s voice embodies so many feelings that it’s clear there’s a lot going on behind this record.” “The lovelorn facets of Myers' dark, intimate music might evoke Sinéad O'Connor or Fiona Apple, but there are also moments of tumult and menace that trace back to her teenage fascination with grunge bands such as Nirvana and Alice in Chains.” “Meg Myers is not just another cute songstress. She’s got a powerful voice and a slightly menacing touch that sets her apart from the rest of the pack.” “Not only does she create indie tunes—much in the same vain as Alanis Morrisette, might we add—but she also has an undeniable beauty that softens her angsty demeanor. Although her new “I’m telling you — EP Daughter in the Choir released quietly, the message is loud and don’t underestimate this girl.”’ clear: there is ample room for a strong feminine perspective in the moody indie space. She isn't the first to purvey a the particular brand of indie, and certainly won't be the last. But one thing's for sure: she looks good doing it.” “Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Closer’ finally has an answer song. With ‘Desire,’ Meg Myers has crafted a track that challenges the dark sexuality of the 1994 classic. ‘I gotta hurt you,’ the Los Angeles-based artist sings, and that’s just one of the lighter lyrics. Later, over the palm-muted tension of electric-guitar chords, she warms up to: ‘I want to f*** you/ I want to feel you in my bones.’ You hear that rattling? That’s Trent Reznor shaking in his steel-toe boots.”
