Jehnny Beth unveils roaring solo single "I'm The Man"

Savages' Jehnny Beth has returned with her new solo single "I'm The Man".

"I'm The Man" got its first play on the fourth episode of the latest Peaky Blinders series, and will feature on the forthcoming soundtrack released next week (15 November).

Beth says of her new single, ""I’m The Man" is an attempted study on humankind, what we define as evil and the inner conflict of morality. Because it is much easier to label the people who are clearly tormented by obsessions as monsters than to discern the universal human background which is visible behind them. However, this song has not even a remote connection with a sociological study, collective psychology, or present politics; It is a poetic work first and foremost. Its aim is to make you feel, not think."

"I'm The Man" is Beth's first single since teaming up with Johnny Hostile on the score for Chelsea Manning documentary XY Chelsea in June.

In September Beth was confirmed as a host for an upcoming live TV show called ECHOES.

Jehnny Beth's new single "I'm The Man" is out now.
