Chosen by Monk
My latest choice sees this Colorado trio loudly, proudly and unapologetically bring their non-binary, queer and female-led firepower to bear against the ever pervading presence of misogyny, especially in the rock ‘n’ roll industry, on the third single from their upcoming sophomore album.
Frontwoman Demi Demitro, who co-wrote the song with drummer Baby Pottersmith, said of the single and its message:
‘On And On’ is a song about kissing off predatory men in the music scene. I always wonder if there will be a day when I won’t feel the need to write about this subject, but unfortunately misogyny is far too rampant in the music industry and I refuse to put up with it.
Sonically speaking we wanted to make sure the song was heavy but also wanted to take some inspiration from more pop artists like Lady Gaga. It has some drum machines on it, which was something we had been really wanting to incorporate into our sound.
- ‘A Million Knives‘ will be released on 14 February via Easy Eye Sound.
