Sløtface have dropped a video for their latest banger ‘Nancy Drew’.
Concerned with bashing down the musical boys club, the lyrics are pretty straight forward, taking aim at identikit men with acoustic guitars and the structures that keep them popping up year after year.
Sløtface couldn’t be much more different to that if they tried. With their debut full length ‘Try Not To Freak Out’ due to drop on 15th September, they’re a day glo blast of something fresh and exciting.
Speaking about the track, the band explain: “We wrote the big rock chords and electronica inspired bass hook first. Then for the lyrics – Haley wanted to take some of that power and make it about something really cool and slick. Nancy Drew in the song is basically a super hero version of the original teenage sleuth, who fights the patriarchy and indie music’s boys’ club.”
“The song is about this super hero I tried to create that’s based on Nancy Drew”, vocalist Haley Shea continues. “The album is full of things we’re worrying about, so I wanted to put some positivity and strength in as well. For this song I wanted to create a kind of super hero saviour, so I drew inspiration from Nancy Drew and tried to imagine a bad-ass super hero who crushes the music industry’s boys’ club and the patriarchy with one punch.”
Check out the clip, on which the band worked with Norwegian illustrator, jellyvamps, below.
