Watch the video for Scowl’s new single Psychic Dance Routine, taken from their upcoming EP of the same name.
Scowl have just unleashed the absolutely ace title-track from their new EP Psychic Dance Routine.
Ahead of the record’s release on April 7 via Flatspot, you can watch the video for Psychic Dance Routine below. Vocalist Kat Moss explains of the meaning behind the single: “My perspective of being consumed as the version of myself that is ‘performing’ has shifted dramatically, while simultaneously grappling the experience of being a feminine artist in a world that doesn’t always take you seriously.
“I made an effort to change perspectives back and forth lyrically because I felt that would have the most impact with the message I was trying convey. ‘She’ll never be your animal, she’s got her own personal hell.’ In its simplest form I’m explaining that nobody can corner me into their perception of who I am and that I’ve got my own shit to deal with. By using ‘She’ I’m making it clear that I’m also speaking about a feminine experience. ‘Can’t handle your control, think of the love I’d give’ is me begging the listener to relinquish the grip they have on me and questioning if they’ll allow me to be the earnest and vulnerable person I truly am.”
