Canadian-Punks, Single Mothers, will release their new album, Roy, on April 28th via Dine Alone Records. You can stream the new track, "Head Shrunk," and check out the video for "Sad Dumb Game" below.
Band leader, Drew Thomson comments on the track:
I wrote ‘Sad Dumb Game’ as a reflection of our intentions versus our actions. We’re in a weird spot where two identities exist: your online persona and the real you. Lots of people get to see the online you, the one that’s carefully crafted, massaged, edited. A small fraction get to see the real person that exists outside the algorithms and edited rewrites. 'Sad Dumb Game’ is about that performative dance, that editing process. It’s about the you that only exists on a screen somewhere versus who we really are.
Single Mothers have a few shows set up at the end of March and will be supporting Off With Their Heads this Summer in North America. Dates below:
