Rheumatological Blues delicately embodies the weight of chronic illness. This downtempo track features electric guitar repeating softly over an ever-present jazzy ride cymbal. Undulating saxophones get progressively heavier, before the track reaches a hammering climax.
"This single was made from pain," says Love, Builder of Worlds "I made it to reflect my chronic illness struggles and I dedicate it to everyone currently struggling with autoimmune issues—particularly the housebound and bedbound people practising COVID safety."
