Samia Returns With Devastatingly Great ‘Bovine Excision,’ Announces New Album


Singer-songwriter Samia has officially released the fan favorite 'Bovine Excision' ahead of her upcoming album 'Bloodless.'

Samia has officially released “Bovine Excision,” a fan favorite that doubles as the prettiest song about cattle mutilation. “Diet Dr. Pepper, Raymond Carver,” professes the singer-songwriter, who is seen in the video below reading in the bathtub, painting her nails, and strolling with “rice wine lime-flavored Lays.” It’s an acoustic ticking time bomb, a stunning build of instrumentation that’s both turbulent and controlled, as she sings “and drained, drained bloodless” over and over. In addition to bovine excisions, Samia was inspired by other unsolved mysteries, such as God and “the impossibility of femininity” while making the record.
