The seven-track effort was co-written and recorded with producers Nico Scali and Ben \u2018Jnr.\u2019 Siva, and arrives three years into the project\u2019s existence after being created by singer, songwriter and figurehead Madeleine Powers. For her part, she has described the EP centrally focusing on \u201cthe transformative quality of suffering\u201d. \u201cAs someone who needs to write to process my own experiences, the individual songs are journal entries from my highs and lows,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI draw most of my inspiration from personal experience, but anything that makes me feel something deeply can inspire a song.\u201d To celebrate the release of the EP, Powers has gone into detail about each of its songs exclusively for <em>Music Feeds<\/em>. Read that, and stream the EP, below.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Rageflower \u2013 <em>Infinite Highs, End Of Times<\/em><\/h2>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">1. \u2018Angel Things\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This song was the first song I wrote for the EP. For me, it\u2019s about platonic love and how shared painful experiences can bond people together. I refer to a lot of my friends and fans as \u201cangel\u2019, and I think that, in this case, \u201cangel things\u201d are the delicate traumas we store with our inner child; they\u2019re the things that make us sensitive to the world.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">2. \u2018Hands On\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This song is really just about lusting after someone you can\u2019t have. It\u2019s animalistic and desperate, but in a good way. I love the production of this song; it feels hot and heaving, but still sensitive in the ways that I always am. The music video for this song was <em>so<\/em> fun to create. We had basically no budget, so I called up all my girlfriends and we filmed this crazy bikini carwash in my friend\u2019s dad\u2019s warehouse. It was so silly, and the first time I really thought, \u201cYeah, I\u2019m gonna rock the suit.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">3. \u2018Hot Glue\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This song is a fan favourite, and it\u2019s one of mine too. It\u2019s really just about daydreaming in your room and feeling lost. It\u2019s that teenage crush that you aren\u2019t going to do anything about. It\u2019s that glue-gun costume. It\u2019s listening to the same song over and over and over again. \u2018Hot Glue\u2019 is the bed-rot anthem. The music video for this was lots of fun, too; I wanted to get the same girls from the \u2018Hands On\u2019 music videos and put them in the suits this time, and just have a deranged sleepover party.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">4. \u2018Kerosene\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This is one of my favourite songs I\u2019ve ever written, and there\u2019s some lore to it. I had a friendship with a musician who lived in a different state to me, and we became super close. Long story short, they broke my heart and I had a bit of a mental breakdown over it. It was a serious turning point for me in my decision to pursue music seriously, and I really think there was some alchemy happening when I wrote this song. Big fuck-you vibes. Big \u201cjust you wait\u201d energy. The music video was one of the coolest things I\u2019ve ever been involved in. I came to Zoe Dubuc with this idea to do a spaghetti western\/<em>Kill Bill<\/em> music video, and she took it to the next level. It\u2019s something I\u2019m incredibly proud of.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">5. \u2018Everyone\u2019s Girl\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This track is really close to my heart. It\u2019s really just about letting go of the need to be \u201cfor everyone\u201d, and grieving the person you thought you had to be in order to be loved. I think it\u2019s a really beautiful song, and jnr. added the most beautiful touches with his verse. It was really important to me to have jnr. featured in a song on the EP. He was such an enormous part of this whole EP coming together, and he is both one of my closest friends and my biggest supporters.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">6. \u2018Sign Of Life\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I wrote \u2018Sign of Life\u2019 about feeling isolated. It was a time in my life where I felt totally alone and hopeless. The song came together in some freaky ways; there were a lot of really weird synchronicities in the studio. Nico and I got pretty meta with it, and added all these secret messages throughout the song. I\u2019d love to see if any fans can decode them. This song really carries the message of the whole EP, and that is this: Through your pain, you will find a path to joy.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">7. \u2018Desk Job\u2019<\/h4>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This is probably my favourite song on the entire EP. I wrote this song at my desk, funnily enough, at my day job. It is about feeling like the world is ending and still having to go to work. I was sitting at my little desk in front of my spreadsheets, and I just picked up my phone and created a voice note with this idea. When I came home, I figured out the chords and sent it to Nico, who loved it, and we got to work. I think this song really captures the rage I feel having to work a day job as an independent artist. Especially the way it ends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Rageflower will play Buddy\u2019s Bar in Sydney tonight (Thursday, August 21st), before heading to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/musicfeeds.com.au\/feeds\/bigsound\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Bigsound;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Bigsound<\/a> in early September 2025.
