Dream Wife have shared a new album teaser, ‘Who Do You Wanna Be?’.
It’s the latest cut from their upcoming new album, ‘Social Lubrication’. Set for release on 9th June via Lucky Number, they’ll tour the release this October.
The song is “about running on the capitalist treadmill and falling face first on the pavement,” the band explain. “Hollow slogans, social media activism without action, leftist infighting, monetising feminism, ‘girl boss’, all soul crushing nonsense.
“Capitalism consumes everything. We should tear down the unreachable anxiety filled idea of perfectionism and move from hyper individualised narrative to collective action to create hopeful, rebellious, collective, systems of care. This is a call to arms for change.”
